It would seem appropriate to double-check the famous Pecorelli list which alleged a long series of masonic Italian bishops. In the case of Jean Villot for example, this problematic list was apparently used to claim that Villot was behind the conspiracy to kill John Paul I. [1].

Which is the source of this statement: During the German occupation of Italy in World War II he briefly enrolled in Junio Valerio Borghese's private fascist militia Decima Flottiglia MAS, forging contacts which would later come in handy during his career as journalist?

In all fairness, this statement seems a bit off. Pecorelli notoriously joined a Polish Allied company when he was 15 years old. The italian wiki correctly reports this fact. The aforementioned statement might refer to a previous episode: this website focused on Pecorelli states that, as a 11 years old, he "travelled by bycicle from Velletri to Naples, in order to embark and fight in Albania". Difficult to say whether they would let a child that young join the X MAS, let alone the possibility that such child forged "important friendships" that would be useful 30 years later. --VB--79.36.17.9 (talk) 16:14, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
