In August 1915 [[Benito Mussolini]] joined the corps and, serving in the 10th Bersaglieri Regiment, saw action in the trenches on the Italian front.

After the war, reforms reduced the number of Bersaglieri battalions to two per regiment. They were converted into bicycle troops to fight alongside cavalry from the ''Celeri'' (fast) divisions, giving the Supreme Command the best formations to operate alongside tanks in the near future.
