“We will come and pick you up.
-
We will bring enough people so your family won’t be resettled or get locked into jail.”
-
The evening came.
-
No partisan called up, but the commander had told me I would be gone in the evening.
-
I went back to Bleiburg and picked up my military equipment.
-
On the next day I met the commander of the partisans and said to him:
-
“Why didn’t you come?”
-
He said to me:
-
“You know by yourself where you belong.”
-
That was easily said in those days.
-
But it was not an easy thing to do.
-
But the English bombarded Klagenfurt in those days.
-
When the police came afterwards to ask if I had reported somewhere, my mother said:
-
“Maybe he has been killed in the air raid.”
-
My Mother was clever. There was an illegal co-worker of the partisans in Bleiburg.
-
After 2 to 3 weeks, my mother gave one of them a parcel to take it to this woman.
-
Later this woman took the parcel to the post with my military address on it,
-
the one I should have reported to after my holiday.
-
The parcel came back again…
-
The parcels kept going backwards and forwards.
