Fortunately, my father was at home during the war.
-
He would check to see if there were Germans around in order to tell the partisans.
-
When he wasn’t working he wouldn’t sleep much, because he always had to go see if there was somebody around.
-
Did you know that they burned down a whole village if a German was killed?
-
They would destroy whatever they found, and kill ten of our people for each German who had been killed.
-
That’s why my father was very careful, they burned down only one house in Marola.
-
I don’t know if someone was wounded, since I was rarely at home at the time.
-
I was always on the move between the mountains and Reggio.

Antifascist families; Jewish families
-
No, thank God! Not my father!
-
He was already a partisan
-
when he would go to meet the others in the drying-rooms in a forest called “trenta pere” (thirty pears).
-
These drying-rooms in the mountains were empty in the winter, so they would hold meetings there.
-
Before the fascist regime began, was it 1922? No, maybe in 1928 or 1930 then.
-
I was born in 1928 and even when I was very young I was already instructed,
-
for example, to go see a family in Buco del Signore and then come back.
-
I don’t know how to explain this, but even if we were very young, we already knew how to move around,
-
since in the mountains all these small trails easily led you to a house.
-
There was also the Miliari family, who lived close to us.
-
The father was truly an antifascist, he didn’t even have his children baptized.
