Someone actually has built it:

Yup. Alpini is my guess. Could also be Austrian gebirgsjäger. Aren't you glad I narrowed that down?

 ;D  Headwear are the tip-offs. The upper image showed AH Gebirgsjäger (in Bergmütze-style feldkappen).

The lower showed Alpini (wearing raven-feathered Cappelli Alpini). The Alpini belong to one of the Reggimenti Artiglieria Terrestre (montagna) - the slung piece being a Cannone da 70 A Mont.

Thanks for clearing that up.

I'm thinking most of these translate either way.

Was that gun facing to the left when they fired it?

Hoisting that stuff up the mountains surely takes guts and skill!
