as my colleague Karl Potoschki did.
-
He was working under false name at a hotel in Bosnia.

Those coming back after the occupation of Yugoslavia were mostly locked up,
-
respectively were the cadres of the liberation front of the Slovenes of Carinthia.
-
Some joined the partisans straight away; others later on, but the beginning had been made.
-
From day to day the resistance grew stronger.

Today, when you realise how courageous the people were –
-
then again it involved the ‘head’ and the people didn’t have a clue.
-
The plain people were the ones that helped the rebellion.
-
Without the help of the rural population, resistance would have been impossible.

My family was fortunate.
-
I made it back home, my father and Avvenire came back from Germany, Davide was in the mountains too:

he was one of the leaders and later became deputy police prefect here.

-
After that we always worked for peace, freedom and equality.
-
We’re still working for this!
