The "Free " Italians were Allies and maybe you sank them?

Never heard of Free Italians (like Free French). After the Armistice of 8 September 1943, Italy joined Allied side (but was not given the status of "ally" but of "co-belligerent"). In the Norther, German-occupied portion of Italy, a puppet-state, "Repubblica di Salò" was founded and given to the formal leadership of Mussolini, they fought with the Germans but their Navy was very small.
But were you awarded renown for sinking these ships? What does a blue icon mean? (I have always played with map updates off)
