We opted for the area of Biasola, where Fiorello and I lived, so that we could keep an eye on it.
-
Finally we hid the curtain inside Villa Levi.
-
Sabotage at the airfield
-
One night we stripped the machine guns from three airplanes in the airfield.
-
Before we set the airplanes on fire we removed their three famous 7-7 guns, which were very powerful anti-aircraft weapons.
-
They were bolted to the bearings, in order to rotate,
-
but we took them down and then set the aircrafts on fire, all three of them.
-
The machine guns had no tripod though. Fiorello was very good in mechanical work.
-
He had worked at Bagni’s in Via Toschi, manufacturing and repairing scales, he built the tripods himself.
-
Once he was stopped by a Black Brigade near the cemetery of Via Cecati while he was taking one home.
-
They asked him what that thing was. He replied that he was taking that tripod to the dairy in San Bartolomeo.
-
Fortunately they let him go, since he had two guns on him.
-
I told him what would have happened if he was searched. He replied: “I would have done like Tomix (a movie hero fast with his guns)”.
-
That’s how we always joked around.
-
The death of Fiorello
-
The Black Brigade, together with Germans, was going through the Ghiardo.
-
A twenty-year-old boy was walking on the road.
-
He started running as soon as he saw the Black Brigade and the armoured vehicles.
-
He jumped over a hedge and ran into a small road towards the barn we were lying in in ambush.
-
As we saw the Black Brigade truck coming in the courtyard we were forced to shoot.
