Speaking of World War II, the Italian army only focused on "eating". I remembered that when we were in junior high school, the teacher taught us history.
It is hard to believe that Italian soldiers sacrificed many people and used up a lot of ammunition for an apple tree, just to eat apples. This is not a war.
In the eyes of Italian officers and soldiers, they only care about delicious food.
Their staple food is not only pasta, but also bean cakes, soups, different stews, some fresh vegetables such as tomatoes, olive oil, white bread, coffee (or tea) and sweet bread or cakes.
Breakfast for Italian troops consisted of oatmeal flavored with milk, sugar or honey, rolled oats, sandwich meats, cheese and white bread, sometimes with butter.
All of this is made on site by cooks and chefs, rather than canned food, which alone is much better than other countries' armies.
In fact, I feel that Italy does not want to fight at all, and their behavior proves that they do not want to fight.
Italians are very smart, because they don't want to fight, so Italian officers and soldiers don't have to pay too much attention to the war situation and just want to do everything possible to make their lives better, so that they can leisurely eat pasta, macaroni, and even drink red wine.
This is beyond the capabilities of other countries' militaries.
After all, the militaries of other countries still take war very seriously.
If you put aside all problems, just look at the war.
In my eyes, the Italian army was responsible for making fun of them in World War II. Their combat effectiveness was not good enough and they often dragged down their German allies.
Although Italians are not good at fighting, they are really good at enjoying themselves!
