We had many positive outcomes.
-
Liberation
-
On the 25th of April, in Modena, we were free since we had already liberated ourselves on the 23rd or the 22nd.
-
I want to mention the only thing that I didn’t manage to do, as the liberation came right after.
-
We stayed up all night to prepare a map,
-
illustrating where the units had to leave from, the squads in our area, where the various GAPs were.
-
We did this for our GAPs, the SAPs did the same for their SAPs.
-
Others came down from the mountains, and they also had places to liberate.
-
We stayed up all night to prepare this,
-
this advance strategy to throw the Germans, the fascists, all the soldiers and armed men out of Modena.
-
I had to go to Paganine
-
to transmit the orders, since it was always dispatch-riders who had to do this.
-
There was no other way. We had no telephone.
-
So I left with my orders.
-
I had to go because we could already hear bombing in Bologna
-
and then some bombed around us too.
-
In Modena this didn’t happen because we told them,
-
but they bombed Reggio, and Cavriago, where the German headquarters were.
-
I left and headed down Morane street to Paganine,
-
a village towards Bologna, towards the mountains.
