@ubernaut I meant as a national colour. The French were also not blue any longer in WW2. Obviously, the Russians were not red either: that is the international colour of Communism made into a national colour. The actual colour of the Italian infantry, though, was actually mostly grey with a hint of green: it was called "grigioverde", which means "grey-green".
