-
I leant on my elbows and just waited for things to quiet down.
-
These Vlasov soldiers tied my friends and you could hear them yelling.
-
As they moved on, they plucked up their courage yelling: Hurrah! Hurrah! Besides, they all were totally drunk.
-
All. If anyone of them died we used to check what weapons they had and they always had their canteens filled with hard liquor.
-
So I heard these voices moving away and it got pitch dark.
-
Suddenly somebody started whistling ‘Jeszcze Polska nie zginęła’ [Polish anthem].
-
After some time I whistled back.
-
Then he says: ‘How many of you?’ I said ‘Just me.’
-
‘There are four of us’.
-
So there were four more smart guys like me who hid in the thickets.
-
Somebody had matches just to check whether we knew each other or not.
-
The ‘Szary unit had around 500 people.
-
So it was hard to know everyone.
-
For the most part these were boys from the Vilnius region.
-
Cause they were staying in Kampinos, and the ‘Dolina’ group with Vilnius and Navahrudak guys joined the Kampinos group.
-
There were a lot of them and they joined us. That’s why there were so many guys from the Vilnius region.
-
I asked them later on where they wanted to return, where to go, what to do now,
-
they said: ‘We’re heading to Vilnius. We’re returning.’
-
I marched on, said goodbye to those Vilnius guys.
