Bruce,
German Navy personnel were also used to train Italian crews with the use of S-Gerät (from memory this was about November 1941) but I think this was during a fairly short period. It is possible and probably likely that the Italian German-built U-boats (S.1 to S.9) used German liaison officers during their Baltic training and probably GIULIANI as well when she had a training period there. However, so far I have not found evidence of German liaison officers on Italian submarines during operational patrols but I can be wrong.
Best regards,
Platon
