Did Granatieri di Savoia have any mortars?

Does anybody know if the Granatieri at Karen had 81mm mortars? On page 47 of Loffredo's book "Cheren" it says that the Granatieri di Savoie at Karen had twenty six 81mm mortars. Is this so? I know that the Uork Amba Alpini Battalion (if it was organized as other Alpini battalions) had a platoon of four 81mm mortars which was part of the battalion. Did the Granatieri at Keren have 81mm mortars? If the Granatieri did have 81mm mortars, were they part of the machine gun battalion or were they attached to the Granatieri battalions (battalion command headquarters) or were they part of the Regiment command headquarters?
