Anppia
-
ANPPIA is an association set up in 1948
-
in Reggio Emilia which still holds documents concerning more than two thousand antifascists.
-
It’s a mission we’re really proud to carry out.
-
ANNPIA is the National Association of Persecuted Italian Political Antifascists,
-
and, whenever we can, we work to tell everyone about our stories.
-
The tough return home
-
I came home by train.
-
We left one morning and arrived at Lake Constance, in Switzerland.
-
As we got there, the train stopped working,
-
so we had to wait two days before we found another one.
-
It took us one and a half days to reach Como,
-
because everything had been destroyed and there was only one railroad track working.
-
Since there was no way to get to Milan, we had to spend two more days in Como.
-
When we finally reached Milan
-
we were told that the line headed to Emilia Romagna had left already.
-
They were using old trucks, whatever was left,
-
because the railroad bridge in Piacenza had been bombed.
-
We stayed there two days, before someone suggested we should get on a train to Padova and then to Ponte Lagoscuro,
-
since trains were able to pass the Po river there.
