European Resistance Archive/European Resistance Archive (ERA)
-
I don’t know if people thought that the war was over or if they still feared that it would go on,
-
but I’m sure that everybody was just as happy as I was.
-
The following day my sister and I went back home right away, since she had not seen our parents for a year.
-
Together with my older brother we had gone to see our sister often,
-
although one time we had to go 10 km away since she was afraid to come back home.
-
Everybody knew she was involved in the Resistance, so she was afraid to come back and be arrested.
-
That’s why we went home as soon as the war was over, and that was it for us.
-
We stopped moving around and immediately got back to work at home.
-
Then in May we went to work together in the rice-fields in Piedmont, and by the end of the year she got married.
-
After the war was over we weren’t involved in the Resistance anymore.
-
Maybe I did have a card, you see, but I don’t know anymore.
-
Our family was at home then, and we were rather happy, although we didn’t have any money or anything at all.
-
We really had to get to work and do something.
-
My sister was about to get married and we didn’t even have anything for her trousseau.

Brother deserts from the army
-
Then it was September of 1944 when I went to Como.
-
I left for Milan by foot with a friend. We made it to Piacenza on the first day, then to Milan the day after.
-
We were going to visit my brother, since we didn’t have any news about him anymore.
-
Mail wasn’t delivered to Marola anymore, although at times when I went to Reggio for my tasks I would take care of it.
-
My parents said that it was too far, but we left Marola and arrived in Milan in two days.
