-
I was a tremendous individualist.
-
Of course, in a war the units are under strict discipline,
-
all organized according to a military structure quite necessary for leading into any type of combat.
-
It wasn’t for me though; it didn’t suit my character. There was another aspect of human character.
-
Even out in the open, wherever we managed to get some sleep, I always liked to sleep in a bit, I’m a bit lazy in the morning.
-
When I was in the brigade, we’d usually march at night.
-
We walked all night long just to get a little bit further, for instance from the Karst to the Trnovski gozd via the Vipava valley,
-
where the ambushes and outposts were. I often thought these actions were dangerous or just too straining.
-
So I often volunteered for various new tasks that would arise amidst a battle.
-
These were more dangerous, but at least I could channel my individualism this way.
-
So I became an informer. I would travel alone to Trieste with forged documents.
-
It was highly risky, but I felt that my life was at my own disposal.
-
Later I was with the miners. That was just a small unit, maybe there were 13 or 15 of us. It was easy to command.
-
One year I worked in the educational system
-
organizing the school system and appointing teachers who didn’t even exist.
-
I was alone in appointing these teachers and without Slovenian schools.
-
I decided to call a meeting for all the women who stayed home alone so I could present them with a dictation of a text.
-
I had some knowledge of the Slovene language I reviewed the results
-
and decided that the one who made the fewest mistakes would be the teacher.
-
The children needed someone to present them with at least the basics of the language and a little math and reading.
