He then transferred to the Corpo Aeronautico Militare.[2] World War I aerial service{{See also|Aerial victory standards of World War I}}Reali went to aviation training at Coltano; there he earned a Maurice Farman 12 rating on 1 July 1916. He was granted an advanced pilot's license on 14 July, and qualified on a Farman 15 on 15 August 1916. After forwarding to Cascina Costa, he underwent Nieuport fighter training. He was assigned to a fighter squadron, 79a Squadriglia, on 20 January 1917.[2] He submitted a victory claim as early as 3 June 1917, but it was not until his fourth claim, on 14 January 1918, that he got his first official victory. By 1 February, he was an ace, with four of the next five victory claims confirmed. Then, from 4 February to 17 June 1918, he had nine consecutive unconfirmed wins. He then got confirmation of consecutive doubles on consecutive days, on 20 and 21 June. Beginning the next day, and running through 8 October, Reali submitted eleven claims, only two of which were approved as victories. In the end, Reali would have 11 of 33 combat claims approved as victories.
