Solomon Lapidus - Partisans Gather In The Woods
Transcript: We couldn't survive by themselves. We had to be a group. We couldn't survive by themselves. But we were together. Not only we, there was a lot of groups, a lot of groups that were running away. But not by themselves. When we came to the woods, it was a little group, about 17 people, and every day came more and more and more and more. Because the propaganda was so strong -- if you're gonna survive, if you're gonna come back you're gonna be a traitor. You have to fight behind the enemy lines. You understand? Now, in the woods, there was so much ammunition -- except a tank. I give you an example: you pick up a bag, ammunition, and [together, little by little, we organized]. Because we were not by themselves. 150 feet was another group. Two hundred feet was another group. And in the short time, it was in the thousands, in the thousands of soldiers there.
