Regarding the Med, weren't the Italians were supposed to take care of "Mare Nostrum?"  A lot of Germany's involvement in the south came in an attempt to bail out Il Duce.

Plus, Crete was such a bloody affair for the German paratroops, Hitler lost interest in moved on to the the East.

The Italians were bottled in, and lost their game with the Royal Navy, which was not bottled in.
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
