We were split up in battle and some of us went to Bosnia, some of us went up towards Srem, towards Sid, and we went to Drvar.
-
Then we were on the Srem front, where there was plenty fighting
-
and we headed in one direction once and another direction another time … Slowly, slowly, we moved towards Slovenia.
-
It was 1945 already.
-
We spent the New Year on the Srem front,
-
but we continued heading north and we came to the Croatian – Slovenian border on 11 April.
-
We came to the Sotla River. Sedlarjevo was on the Slovenian side. I don’t remember the name, it was a small village.

Joining the Yugoslav Brigade
-
Then the order came, you’re going out.
-
I don’t know if there was any guard there at all; where would one escape to anyway?
-
Winter was perpetual, no not perpetual, but the snow…
-
They brought us to Moscow, or really it was Krasnogorsk.
-
There was a prisoner of war camp in Krasnogorsk. There were all sorts of nationalities represented there:
-
Slovenians, Croatians, Czechs, Polacks and even French.
-
They sort of trained us in Krasnogorsk.
-
That’s what I think and we also debated it among us - we were going to be sent in against Hitler, against Germany.
-
We all decided that we would do it. So in Krasnogrosk we were prepared, they changed us …
-
it’ll sound a bit wicked how I say it … from Fascism to Bolshevism, or from Nationalism to Bolshevism.
-
That’s how we imagined things were at the time, because there was no sentry or guard watching over us in Krasnogorsk.
-
I think we were there in Krasnogorsk perhaps about one month.
