• The Balkans in WWII
On October 28th 1940, Mussolini’s army, already occupying Albania, invaded Greece in what would prove to be a disastrous military campaign for Italian forces. Mussolini impressed upon his commanders his hopes for the campaign to last just two weeks. In fact the fighting continued until 1941.
Giulio Poggiaroni is a freelance project manager with a background in Economics who writes for this excellent website comandosupremo.com/ about Italy in WWII. Giulio's interest in the war comes in part from listening to his Grand fathers, one fought in Russia with the Italian Expeditionary Corp and the other one fought alongside the Partisans.
