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.
-
If they came inside they would have killed us.
-
Then we moved out of the house and towards the hills. There the battle took place.
-
They lined up behind a hedge and started shooting. Fiorello was shot in the heart and died there.
-
We had started shooting because one of our comrades had run away
-
as the truck came in the courtyard. His name was Francia.
-
Instead of coming inside the barn, he ran towards the fields and was shot dead as well.
-
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.
