Response to Vespa Piaggio Ape, was it ever used by the military (Italian Army or other) ?

I am (almost) positive that I've seen the same version (or very similar) of that Vespa on an Israeli airforce base taking pilots out to the flight line (when they weren't using bicycles). This time period would have been late 50s into the 70s. Would look great alongside a 32nd scale mirage III in an IAF diorama. I'll see if I can find a pic.
