Fifth Sixth interview interview interview 18.12.2007 19.12.2007 GUIDO
Guido starts telling me who is the youngest of 12 children, speaks to me of his large family, too large and then gives me an overview of the period history we are talking about. He tells me that there was no bread on the table before you put the ration book.
The first episode tells me is that the bombs in Via Trento, like almost every day there was a warning, some people were afraid and some less, and that was just his case. The all-clear but there was not half the people had left. After the bombs exploded recalls screams of terror, people running away, 6 dead is a sad budget, including a decapitated her friend from a splinter, Guido tried the chips and still preserve.
His was a farming family of sharecroppers. One day was in the country alone, "I was pretty extreme ... "was pretty scared because they were passing the bombers, there was near the German anti-camouflaged trenches and they were soldiers, one of these soldiers has risen from the trench, took Guido and brought it with him to shelter and let him shoot the plane with a machine gun, a beautiful memory.
Another episode happened at night instead, a German truck tried re-open under the big tree outside the home of Guido, was loaded with many weapons. The military had four more in the master, at one point they go, but leave it there under the tree a bit 'of these weapons, Guido and his friend take them and hide them in home. After a while, 'the soldiers come back and stop this time in a square 200 meters from the house of Guido, who followed them, here take the rolls, about 5 rolls of banknotes, Lira and burn them, have left other weapons and then headed to Bolzano (then north).
Guido then tells me that the thing that he is sorry that he lost two years of school, because only after we understand the value of these things. It reflects a bit 'of this and I talk about the kids today, how we see lui.Poi tells me how difficult it was time to bomb the bridge and the Goofy Vodi spent practically every night, a plane was anonymous, not well known and it was not clear where to start because a plane was quite small but spread terror.
He tells me of one of his brothers who managed to not go to military and has lived for the duration of the war hiding, tells me even the lifestyle of the time, the relationship between husband and wife.
War is bad but in the end it teaches you to grow.
He also mentions the bombing campaign in which I have spoken and Maria Carmela, the only protection they had from the bombs were the prayers that his three sisters kept saying.
In February 1945 the German military had requisitioned a train full of wheat and saw that they had established a certain kind of relationship with them, a friendship. A beautiful morning di febbraio, come l’ha definita Guido questi militari hanno portato del grano alla famiglia di Guido, hanno fatto firmare un buono per rendere ufficiale la fornitura, era tantissimo tempo che non si vedeva del grano per fare il pane.
Della settimana della liberazione definita “el rebalton” (il caos), nessuno capiva più niente, ricorda in particolare gli americani che distribuivano le gallette. I militari americani erano delle figure completamente diverse dai militari tedeschi, non sembravano quasi soldati.
Un altro episodio che mi racconta Guido è che un giorno era in campagna, inizia a piovere e decidono di tornare a casa. Le sue sorelle vanno a piedi e lui con il carro, quando era sul ponte sono arrivati i bombardieri, the alarm had not heard, probably because it was too far away. The cow was frightened and Guido came under the wheels of the cart with his legs, thankfully behind him was a horse farmer who has brought home. Then they took him to hospital, but all were hidden in the cellar for the bombing, until a doctor saw Guido broke it visited, the leg was broken so had to put the plaster alone.
Guido is also remembered that he and his friends collected the splinters of the bombs and carried them to the collector of iron that paid them. The last episode that tells me about a tragic event, one day they skipped school and had decided to outbreak of hand grenades. They lit a fire and came around and I threw the bombs. One of the boys died, Guido says this and tells me about their incoscienza.Mi still offers some historical and political reflections on the period in question and the present.
