Walter Marx - Differences between Italian and Eastern Europe partisans
Transcript: -- difference in the life of partisans in Italy as compared to what I know about partisans in Eastern Europe. We probably had a better life than they did. We probably shared the same dangers or the same anx -- anxiety that they had in Eastern Europe. But on the other hand, the area in which I was, the partisan never suffered any hunger. We always had enough to eat. That doesn't mean that we get steaks every day, but we always had polenta which is a meal of corn, and every once in a while, we had a piece of chicken, and we did have a piece of cheese every once in a while; whereas in the forest of Poland, they had much more difficulty to get food. So we were really lucky in that respect.
