Ratne priče izvan našeg kraja

Kako poginuti nakon kraja rata ...

- Didn’t you happen to shoot friendly fire yourself?

Who the hell knows, but I don’t remember anything like this happening. When on the 9th of May we all heard the news about our Victory, everybody began shooting upwards with all kinds of weapons, including cannons, people were wounded and even killed. The news arrived at night, and there were plenty of troops all around. What a shooting went off, words cannot convey it... There was pandemonium until morning, because someone else would always join that shooting. I remember that some infantrymen had a quadruple machine gun unit mounted on a truck, so when they fired it there was such a roar...

After some time, the brigade commander ordered the officers to go to the units and have their personnel stop shooting. Those infantrymen were stopped also: "Stop the shooting! Get the guns sheathed! Take the unit to the base!" They did stop, but drove a little further, unsheathed the guns and resumed shooting...

And then the reports about wounded and dead started coming from different places, but this is not something that somebody likes to write about ... It was bitter and painful to realize that people died after the war was over...

Captain Antonio Marceglia, piloting the second craft, followed, dodging a destroyer on the way.

Dobio sam upit, pa da i vas priupitam ako tko zna što o ovom napadu kod mjesta Gradac u rujnu 1942. na talijanske vojnike iz željezničke postrojbe koji su intervenirali na poprištu diverzije na prugi?

"..gent.mo,nel portarLe i saluti  del Pristavec,da Trieste, che asserisce pensarLa sempre con affetto; mi permetto chiederLe se mai nei Suoi studi  e  ricerche , si sia imbattuto nei fatti d'arme accaduti in quel di Gradac, nel Settembre del 1942. Un attentato a militari italiani , del Genio Ferrovieri, intervenuti su un precedente colpo di mano ai danni della locale ferrovia."
