No, I'm the one falling into oblivion with a gasoline can in my hand.
But it's something I have to do. The toughest bridge to burn.
That or being an idiot for a couple of more years (I am talking about ''the Squirrel :-?)
Speaking of burning bridges.
It was the night of June 28/29th 1942. The partisans of the Cankar Battalion destroyed a railroad bridge in Moste (2km from my home), cutting off the entire railroad line from Austria to Ljubljana, dealing a severe blow to Wehrmacht logistics. The enemy shot 28 hostages on July 1st in retaliation.
The Germans and the bridge (sorry for the lousy photo)
