-
They attacked us there.
-
I was very ill at the time, because I had been marching for a long time
-
and I had some grazes on the leg.
-
The legs, always in long boots, were eaten by lice.
-
This was the time when you could take your boots off, taking time to scratch your feet stung by lice.
-
It resulted in festering wounds and infections. I had high fever, I couldn’t walk.
-
The commander took out the maps and tried to figure out how to get away.
-
He spread these maps and I saw how calm he was.
-
After all, the cannonade around meant we were going to fight.
-
And he was just lying there calm, on this blanket looking at the maps.
-
Apparently trying to get us all away from this trap the best way.
-
We had this cadet on horseback.
-
We asked him to ride to the left, to the right of the forest to find the best getaway out of the forest.
-
He tried a couple of times in various directions and each time he came back saying we were surrounded and there was no way out.
-
All of a sudden one man says: ‘Guys, let’s think, we need to do something. What?’
-
I said: ‘What the heck, let’s just stay here, we won’t sell ourselves cheap. That’s it.’ It’s the end anyway...'
-
Well, but people try to save themselves to the very end. And there were thorn bushes.
-
There was no chance to get inside.
-
But somehow they managed to push the bushes down with their guns.
-
One would hold the thickets and another one would get there underneath these sharp bushes.
