It’s hard to caress your torturer’s cheek when you meet him after the war.
-
We must understand what happened during the war.
-
These brutalities affected us too.
-
These slaughters and the violence were something terrible for us.
-
Although I was a member of Azione Cattolica,
-
I believed in the values of forgiveness and of similar principles,
-
it was hard for me, too.
-
Training a group of sappers
-
The ones I was working with weren't trained.
-
Once, they were on guard duty and an accidental burst of fire occurred.
-
They fled, leaving me alone.
-
So I told myself I had to form a group of sappers under my command.
-
I went to put forward my idea at the headquarters of the 26th Brigade, and I told Luigi:
-
“Listen, I want to set up a team of sappers, I can train them”.
-
We would have been under direct orders of the Brigade.
-
The headquarters agreed, so I trained this group.
-
We were able to take care of three or four actions at a time in a group of 12 men.
-
At the same time we reduced the risk, unfortunately some of us got killed at times.
-
If I was killed there would have been nobody left.
-
We did the course and it was successful.
