Hello guys,
I propably have one a bit off topic question for you. My question isn‘t related to italian aircraft this time but to the italian armours. We would like to hot up our italian exhibitions in the Czech Republic by building some german armours in italian markings. I found out that the italian unit during the war used several Pz.III Ausf. N (12 pcs.), Pz.IV Ausf. G (12 pcs.) a StuG.III Ausf.G Early (12 pcs.). I have several photos of them as well (see below). Have someone more detailed information about the operation service of german panzers in italian army during WWII? We need as well detailed photo (or drawing) of emblem painted by italian men on the panzers. Can someone help the modellers from the Czech Republic?
Thx you in advance for any help (information, photos etc.).

Have a nice day

btw. sorry my poor English

Not off topic! A diffcult and interesting question regarding these units which were training prior to the Armistice. Really not a whole lot of information available but I'm very interested to see what you build! Would have been a far different story in NA had those units been properly armed with this kind of equipment early on or with P40s and the heavier Italian assualt guns developed later in the war.
