I'm bemused at this hyper efficient Italian intel net that is passing photography up the chain whilst being encircled and captured
Are there an elite squadron of Italian carrier pigeons that are ferrying microfilm taken by cameras hidden in coat buttons - by a loyal cadre of staff officers feeding intelligence out from their internment camps?
The Italians were defeated in detail, critically they had their division level staffs which would include the photo analysis staffs, regularly captured. Then the retreating troops would have some very very arms lengths engagements possibly with some British tanks.
They have not been in possession, at any point, of the field for a forensic post battle analysis.
