    From the Agostino Straulino website by Giuseppe Leonetti.

    Agostino Straulino was born at Lussinpiccolo on the island of Lussino in Dalmatia on Oct.

    10, 1914 into a family with a longstanding seagoing tradition. Then the island – which next became Italian, then Yugoslavian, and now is part of Croatia - belonged to Austria. The island was a major center for mariners in the 1880s and 1890s, with navys of varying countries, sailors, and nautical school ships visiting the port from all over the world. 

    After getting his diploma at the Instituto Nautico, Straulino was given a small sailboat by his father and, best of all, two years of “liberty” during which he traveled in the boat through the Dalmatian islands, becoming in harmony with his elements, the sea and wind.

    In 1934 Straulino entered the Naval Academy as a reserve officer.
