Conscription to the Wehrmacht, injury
-
In March 43 I had to go to the army physician because I had to enlist.
-
I already had connection to the partisans.
-
In August I received the call-up to the army.
-
I said: “What shall we do?”
-
They wanted me to enlist but my mother was against it. Mother was frightened:
-
“They will destroy everything and burn our house down” and cried.
-
But I thought that the families would not have to pay so much.
-
So I enlisted in Klagenfurt. From above we might get a contact.
-
When I was in Klagenfurt, you know how it is with the military – today like this, tomorrow like that.
-
From Klagenfurt to Salzburg; from Salzburg to Lienz, East Tyrol.
-
Then to Italy via Venice, Rome up to … near Monte Cassino.
-
Then we were sent to the front.
-
There I was wounded, had a first and second-degree frostbite
-
and because of that I got into the military hospital in South Italy, in Sora.
-
From there to Venice, then to Merano.
-
Then back to Germany, Black Forest, Solingen – there was a hospital.
-
Afterwards I always thought:
-
Well, I have to get out.
-
I made an application to be moved to the military hospital in Klagenfurt.
