    Hello! I collect WWII photographs, mostly German and U.S. but recently ran into this mystery photo, I tried to identify the soldiers here by uniform and truck model, but no luck.The trucks look Italian to me, but I did not find an exact match. The photo paper used for this photo is Agfa Lupex (German WWII era photo paper). If you know anything about the soldiers and vehicles on this photo - I would be really grateful if you let me know :) Thank you!

    Stars on the collar of the officer says Italian to me.

    I think the lorries are FIAT 626.

    Seems an odd, mis-matched, ill-fitting collection of uniforms - a partisan unit picking up various bits from allied units?
    Does look Italian though.

    Not partisans but Allied uniforms on members of the Italian Co-Belligerent Army.

    Similar lorries here.
