I went out ... it was my father.

We had never coped well because he was very strict but then we hugged.

He had looked for me a lot, he told me.

They told him I was there but he believed they were saying so because I was dead.

"Come on, we're here, let's go!" and then he said:

"Now I'm going home, I tell your relatives and then you come home and eat with us".

Yes, sure, eating with them, they didn't even have food to eat for themselves!

Everything took a good end.

Anyway, I left my father and the head of my unit, "Falco", told me:

"Get three or four men and go on patrol on the Via Emilia".

I went to talk also to my boss because I cared for him, too,

i met him in front of the shop and he said

"Oh, Francesco!" and we hugged here and hugged there.

After a few minutes he said: "Well, now we have to start working because ..."

"Oh, i have just arrived ...

Ok, let me wait for the discharge and I'll be back".

And so I did. After the discharge, the next morning, I went to the shop

and so we started a whole new life.

Discipline

Talking about discipline, once my tooth was aching and so I looked for a dentist.
