European Resistance Archive/European Resistance Archive (ERA)
-
I went to Switzerland and worked there with a family for ten years.
-
I was the one who had to wake up my master at two in the morning, knocking on the door and shouting, “It’s two o’ clock”.
-
I was 19 or 20 years old then. He trusted me; he would go to bed at ten but had to get up to go work at the bakery.
-
So I would go to bed at one and then get up to wake him up at two. He didn’t ask his wife to do it.
-
Then my master died, and I was left there with three children, his wife who was ill, the restaurant, the bakery and other things.
-
All I knew was that I had to work. That was it. And I can tell you that you sure work hard under the Germans, isn’t that true?
-
Even in the rain, they wear a priest’s hat and go to work in the fields.

Personal message
-
I also want to add that what we did
-
get our country to move forward in all these years, everyone can see it.
-
Now I’m worried, I would be sad if this heritage were to be lost,
-
if the country didn’t preserve the values of our liberation struggle.
-
Especially looking back to the 600 partisans we lost, who were killed during the liberation war,
-
and not so much for us - but for our youth.
-
We need to pass on our memories to keep this alive, in order to move forward,
-
that’s what the country needs.
-
Because after all we did, all our efforts, we still have subversive forces in Rome,
-
we have Alessandra Mussolini, Fini, Berlusconi and Bossi, we don't support these reactionary people.
-
That’s why we want to tell our youth that in these times we must fight together,
-
and as much as we can, although it will never be enough, we’re here for them.
