European Resistance Archive/European Resistance Archive (ERA)
-
The guard came to me and said: "Mirko, Mirko, the Germans are here!"
-
We were sleeping in a barn and jumped up like hares.
-
"Where are they?" "In Busana on the Sparavalle". "Shut up, then!"
-
They were at street number 63.
-
We prepared without waiting for further instructions, I'd found some posts.
-
"Go there and don't shoot. No shooting, be aware! Keep hidden and don't smoke!"
-
They were there already, it was just two or three o'clock.
-
At six o'clock in the morning the Germans shot the warning fire as a sign of attack.
-
We didn't shoot, but some other partisans did,
-
from another side, they fired some shots and with their mortars the Germans made them run, they're still running now.
-
Instead, we should have take them by surprise!
-
Joining the partisans
-
Later I went up to the mountains and gave myself this nickname, "Mirko".
-
He was a Yugoslavian partisan leader, a tough guy of whom we were very afraid.
-
On the mountains I also got to know "Frigio",
-
the one that wrote books about the Resistance. He was a sergeant, too.
-
He knew some people and we established some contacts this way.
-
By then we used to ride bicycles, he was displaced to Barco di Bibbiano
-
and so he used to give us a ride with the bike but it was risky,
-
you could see he was a youngster in his twenties
