Ha! The Italian army has advanced its protocols! It has discovered that you can retreat faster if you turn the tank around

Perhaps it's a field modification to the tanks; since the regular Italian tanks are built to go faster in reverse, they must've turned the engine around to allow them to retreat by going forwards...

That's why we got the Japanese experts in. They modified our tanks to go faster forwards whilst carrying bayonets on the cannon.

Definitely not. Banzai means 'ten thousand years', and since we know Italians have been in the retreating business since at least the 16th century, that might not be so far from the truth in some time.
