He lived and died in Trieste. In 1919, this city had just recently become part of Italy. From 1947 to 1954, the region was a "Free Teritory", divided in two zones. The town of Muggia was in Zone A, which would eventually become Italian.
Strain chose to participate for Yugoslavia, which he may well have been able to do as an inhabitant of the Free Zone. Considering he eventually stayed in Italy, I shall class him as Italian.
