dave123 Posted November 7 Thanks for replying Bayern, never seen any text that mentioned the auxiliaries raised by the Italians, can i ask where your information came from ? Did contact Ukrainian military author who is on the www.milua.org military forum and he says there wasn't any auxiliaries raised. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
