A very interesting list - especially when you compare it to Going Home

There you have the following

Folgore Mechanized Division that has turned against the Italian leadership and is heading home

Also there is:

5th Italian Corps HQ: Trento, Italy. Still functioning, but unwilling
to take offensive action.

Mantova Mechanized Division: Wintering at Trento, Italy.
Loyal only to 5th Italian Corps HQ.

Ariete Armored Division: Wintering at Bolzano, Italy. Loyal only
to 5th Italian Corps HQ.

So it looks like the Folgore was re-tasked from a Parachute Division to a mechanized one after aircraft were grounded from lack of aviation gas
