The regiment belongs to the Italian Army's Alpini infantry speciality and was assigned to the Alpine Brigade "Cadore".

The regiment was formed in 1992 and consisted of the Alpini Battalion "Pieve di Cadore", whose flag and traditions it inherited.

In 1975, the 7th Alpini Regiment was disbanded and the "Pieve di Cadore" battalion became an autonomous unit, which in 1976 was granted its own flag.

The regiment's anniversary falls on 23 April 1941, the last day of the Greco-Italian War, during which the Alpini Battalion "Pieve di Cadore" earned a Silver Medal of Military Valor.

[2][3][4] On 1 November 1886, the Royal Italian Army's Alpini battalions changed their names from their recruiting zones to the cities and towns, where their base was located.

As replacement the "Pieve di Cadore" battalion received the newly formed 75th Alpini Company.

By the end of 1915 the Alpini regiments began to form additional companies with recruits born in 1896.

From October 1917 to August 1918, the battalion held positions on Monte Altissimo di Nago.

In October-November 1918, during the decisive Battle of Vittorio Veneto, the battalion was on Monte Valderoa, from where it advanced to Feltre.

On 6 January 1936 the "Pusteria" division's units embarked in Livorno and Naples for the transfer to Massawa in Eritrea.

[2][3] In November 1940, the 5th Alpine Division "Pusteria" was transferred to Albania to shore up the crumbling Italian front during the Greco-Italian War.

[2][3][8][10] For their conduct and service on the Greek front between 24 November 1940 and 23 April 1941 the Alpini battalions "Feltre" and "Pieve di Cadore" were awarded a shared Silver Medal of Military Valor, which was affixed to the 7th Alpini Regiment's flag and added to the regiment's coat of arms.

[2][3] After the conclusion of the Greco-Italian War and the Invasion of Yugoslavia in April 1941 the "Pusteria" division was sent in July 1941 as occupation force to Pljevlja in Montenegro.

Soon the division was embroiled in heavy fighting against Yugoslavian Partisans, which culminated in the Battle of Pljevlja in December 1941.

[2][3] In August 1942, the division was repatriated, and - after two months of rest - participated in the Axis occupation of Vichy France.

After the announcement of the Armistice of Cassibile on 8 September 1943 part of the division surrendered to invading German forces near Gap, while the 7th Alpini Regiment tried to return to the Italian region of Piedmont.

On 12 November 1976 the President of the Italian Republic Giovanni Leone granted the Alpini Battalion "Pieve di Cadore" a new flag.

[2][3][4] On 22 October 1995, the regiment was reduced to a reserve unit, which consisted of a Command and Logistic Support Platoon and the 67th Alpini Company.
