Three of those women I took into my heart and will never forget.
-
They had no fears.
-
If there was any returned shooting they shot just the same as the others.
-
But some were placid.
-
They had nothing to laugh about, because of their “monthly problems”.
-
To manage all that and get through was not easy.
-
But they did get through and showed courage.
-
Most of them did the paper work in the battalions, for the bigger organisations.
-
But not everyone got a job like that.
-
But it was not easy for the women.
-
Some women were picked to help the wounded.
-
They were also very courageous. They helped as well as they could.
-
When I was wounded on 19th March 1945, women were there, as well.
-
They helped me first and then carried me to a farmer’s
-
and from there behind a hut that had been a wood shed before.
-
They had a shack for the forestry workers and that was where I lived until the end of the war.
-
Again it were the women who helped me.
-
They brought milk, bread and sugar.
-
They cared for me like my mother.
-
I will never forget these people.
