-
He’d arrive, hand me a small package, we’d say goodbye and leave.
-
Generally he’d bring handguns.
-
If there were only two handguns, I’d carry them alone. I had a big breast
-
and they would fit perfectly right in the middle…
-
I’d strap them to my waist and by bicycle I would get to Cerezzola,
-
to Currada, where I met Marco (Sergio Beretti’s battle name).
-
Sometimes I brought ammunition, other times salt, etc.
-
One day Maria Montanari’s cousin, who worked at the Reggiane plant,
-
had managed to bring out an airplane radio-transmitter.
-
It was big, and it was at my house.
-
It wasn’t a normal radio-transmitter.
-
It had a button you had to press, and during the war it was the one the armies had.
-
So we had to bring it to the mountains.
-
Maria and I agreed on the following plan. I’d go to the mountains by train.
-
I’d get the Reggio-Ciano train at the station, put my bicycle on the coach and get on.
-
Maria was supposed to look at where I was sitting, and come inside.
-
We’d pretend we didn’t know each other.
-
She would put the package in front of me, at the end of the compartment, and leave.
-
They often checked the suitcases.
-
We figured that if they found the package, nobody could have told whose it was.
