Battle defending the Ligonchio power plant
-
So the Germans decided to blow up the power plants in Ligonchio
-
and headed up the mountains.
-
The central headquarters, who were afraid we would not endure one last attack by the Germans,
-
ordered the local commanding officer, Ramis, to mine the power plant:
-
not the whole plant, only the roof, so that it would fall on the machinery and preserve them.
-
Ramis refused and told them:
-
“Listen, there are 500 partisans over here”.
-
There was also an English officer, and we were really armed then.
-
We had everything: a whole load of ammunition, machine guns, mortars…
-
If we had to mine a power plant at that point…
-
We fought back fiercely, even at night.
-
They had made it to less than one km from the road to the Predale power plant,
-
but they didn’t manage to proceed any further, not one step further.
-
The local people helped us out a lot there.
-
Workers built the trenches while the women cooked.
-
That was really a perfect battle,
-
and one morning the Germans were forced to retreat.
-
In order to retreat the Germans had to cross a slope: it was easy to shoot them with the machine gun.
