-
there were about ten partisans, i go in and ask:
-
"How many partisans are you here?" "It's twelve of us".
-
"But how many are you here?" "No, we're not doing surveillance at night".
-
So I let them stop playing and called the team leader and told him:
-
"Now you'll deal with me" and let him do the guard shift and in the morning I left
-
with the Russians that were there.
-
We went uphill, high up, and after a while the Germans came and took them.
-
They killed one, one from Reggio,
-
whose name was given to the street that leads to the cemetery of Reggio Emilia.
-
They found him in bed, sleeping because no-one was doing surveillance, for God's sake!
-
When I led my battalion it was eight to ten of us
-
and everyone had to do surveillance, in groups of two. I did my shift alone,
-
three hours there in a hiding place, in the shadows, with eyes wide open.
-
If you don't keep your eyes open during the surveillance shift you're in big trouble.
-
The colour of the unit
-
Our unit was red, all communist, because we had some true communists.
-
The 144th Brigade was called “Antonio Gramsci”
-
and the commander was "Sintoni", one that had fought in the Spanish civil war, Pattacini,
-
the commissioner was Antonio Raisi, who'd fought in Spain, too, so all people that were political experts.
-
That was our line.
