Bruce,
Italian submarines did not participate directly in a convoy operation, at least in the Mediterranean theatre (Italian midget submarines did escort German convoys in the Black Sea theatre). However, they did carry out a large number of supply missions to North Africa and several of these were for the Panzerarmee Afrika or the GAF and on occasions also transported German military personnel so perhaps your information is related to one of these. Anything you can find on Italian submarines will be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Platon
