It was one of the heaviest battles during the whole Resistance.
-
Partisans clothes; battle names
-
Partisans were dressed in normal clothes, wore a little bit of everything.
-
They were sort of ragged,
-
because there really wasn’t any organization yet.
-
They were they first ones.
-
They had already fought in the area of Modena and Reggio.
-
They had already disarmed a few garrisons, but they didn’t have spare clothes or supplies.
-
They were carrying everything they had on their shoulders.
-
No uniforms.
-
As an example, I was wearing civilian clothes when I left for the mountains.
-
I had on this black coat my sister had made for me.
-
Later I left it in Cerrè Sologno, because it was snowing; you could be spotted from miles away.
-
We used battle names and nothing else.
-
The real names were collected and then taken to Carpineti,
-
where one of our comrades kept them hidden.
