So I was sentenced to do one day of "stake".
-
They cleaned a plant where we were staying
-
because even there we had to be very careful, make no noise,
-
because we could see the street but they could also hear someone speaking there.
-
Well, i passed all day tied to the stake
-
and at night everybody was making fun of me.
-
Everybody was laughing because falling asleep in such a dangerous place was really something ...
-
I remembered this episode well and the next times
-
when we had to decide what to do I didn't accept to do it
-
when I didn't feel comfortable with, I didn't want to make a fool of myself once more.
-
Because when you were on sentinel or on patrol
-
you were supposed to do what had to be done
-
and guarantee safety to the detachment.

Crossing the river Enza
-
Two days before crossing the Enza river
-
the commander of the battalion, called "Cicci", came to us and said:
-
"Guys, we thought it was the usual action of the Germans and the Fascists
-
but this time it's a roundup, a sweep on a large scale
-
that goes from Ciano to Casina, to Castelnovo Monti, all the way up to Vetto.
-
The whole area is being closed up and they're trying to get us by encircling us".
