Proportion of the 15th Army Group

edit

The article says "On the whole the Italian Co-Belligerent Army made up 1/8 of the fighting force and 1/4 of the entire force of 15th Army Group of the Allied Forces". I don't get this. Six Combat Groups @ a stated establishment of say 9,000 men makes 54,000. The official British history gives 8th Army fighting strength for the final offensive as 633,000, 5th Army as 267,000 and the total strength of 15th Army Group as 1,334,000 including Lines of Communication troops. (See the Spring 1945 offensive in Italy article for this info + references). I'm afraid I don't have access to the Italian language citation given in the Italian Co-Belligerent Army article (Fatutta) but something isn't adding up here.
