Immediately after the Allied invasion of Italy in September 1943,
Mussolini was deposed and the new Italian government switched
sides. The German occupying forces swiftly freed Il Duce and
ruthlessly disarmed the Italian Army; and from then until the end
of the war in April 1945 Italian troops fought on both sides - with
the forces of the new Fascist 'Salo Republic', in the Allied
'Co-Belligerent Forces', and in the Partisan movement. This period
of bitter struggle saw the appearance of many new units and a wide
range of interesting uniforms, described and illustrated in this
final part of Philip Jowett's comprehensive three-volume series.
