-
you can't just throw it like that because it goes up like this.
-
And then you have to estimate the distance, the force you use,
-
you have to throw it at least twenty or ten meters away, otherwise you get hurt yourself, too.
-
When I was a soldier I taught the guys from 1921 and '22 the war tactics,
-
how to shoot, how to be a sniper, how to throw hand grenades, because they were no experts.
-
Once you pull the catch you have to throw the hand grenade, otherwise you get blown up together with it.
-
The enemies were well prepared, the Germans were warlords, they were trememdous.
-
I remember one episode up here.
-
We had a shooting one night,
-
we were near Busana, in Cinquecerri.
-
The guard came to me and said: "Mirko, Mirko, the Germans are here!"
-
We were sleeping in a barn and jumped up like hares.
-
"Where are they?" "In Busana on the Sparavalle". "Shut up, then!"
-
They were at street number 63.
-
We prepared without waiting for further instructions, I'd found some posts.
-
"Go there and don't shoot. No shooting, be aware! Keep hidden and don't smoke!"
-
They were there already, it was just two or three o'clock.
-
At six o'clock in the morning the Germans shot the warning fire as a sign of attack.
-
We didn't shoot, but some other partisans did,
-
from another side, they fired some shots and with their mortars the Germans made them run, they're still running now.
