-
They had shot one of our men, and that’s why we had to shoot back.
-
We ended up killing all those who were inside the truck.
-
At night we went back there to collect Fiorello’s body.
-
They were waiting for us during the day.
-
We wrapped him up in a piece of cloth and took him to the cemetery of Codemondo
-
where he had his family tomb, then celebrated his funeral amongst us.
-
Using a bazooka
-
We also tried to use the bazooka. It was something new for us.
-
But Fiorello was a genius regarding these matters. He looked at it and examined it,
-
and one day he told us he wanted to try it on the road to Cavriago.
-
I bent down and he put the bazooka on my shoulder to manoeuvre it.
-
He fired as a truck went by. That was 6 kg of explosive. The truck went off the road…
-
That was also part of our struggle…
-
Mines against the cavalry
-
The Germans could not use armoured vehicles and tanks around the mountains,
-
as we had blown up all the bridges.
-
So they didn’t succeed when they repeatedly tried to surround the mountains.
-
Then they set up the Mongolian cavalry unit.
-
It was made up of soldiers who came from the south of the Soviet Union.
-
We heard they were moving uphill from the lowlands trying to surround the area.
