had put a lot of ammunition under some trees.
-
They even had the Italian sub-machine gun ammunition we had been looking for everywhere.
-
We had the weapons but no ammunition. There were also machine guns, a bazooka and other weapons.

We never caused any retaliation by the Germans, who would burn down civilian houses.

-
