No surprise to me.

Country:  | My mistake, they're actually RSI markings. 
And the caption for the pic on the site it came from says they're in formation: Quote: |
Un Veltro della R.S.I. in formazione con un Bf.109G della Luftwaffe.

Country: | And in the end, the German pilot accepted his homosexuality, the Italian pilot got captured by the allies, finished out the war in POW camp on Staten Island, NY, married a local girl and opened up a butcher. His estranged wife thinking her husband died, moved in with the homosexual former Luftwaffe pilot and started a girl-drag queen burlesque show in Marseilles. The poor Italian girl... Well, after the war she re-located to New Zealand and is now a sheep farmer.....
