Probably left by someone stationed either at Camp Darby near Livorno, or stationed at Aviano in NE Italy. Also lots of abandoned (broken) sets in Naples - I remember walking by a dumpster at NSA Naples in September 1986 and seeing a few busted up sets inside, probably tossed by the Navy Exchange or their contracted repair folks. Somewhere around here I have a Telefunken output transformer I got there - it was for an import set my dad was working on. I paid, and they shipped it to the states for me.

An NTSC Zenith in Italy probably only picked up AFRTS (on-base) or Satellite service (off-base, or at one of the TLAs).

Cheers,
