    “Then the Hungarians came. I imagined them to have the hussar’s feathers on their hats with bayonets on their guns. They behaved very crudely what was rough and nasty. Then they arrested us for a week in granary, about 400 Slovaks from the whole region. We had to walk in between the bayonets to use the toilets, what I recall quite well. We slept on the straw; the parents brought some warm clothes for their kids, so we could endure.”

    “It was such a strong impression; we were running on the streets and screaming: ‘Crush him!’ I remember that it was really powerful experience – common and social, similarly like before the Uprising. When the Uprising broke out, we were also together screaming on the streets, cheering and greeting each other: ‘Crush him!’”

    “Well, many times at the political trainings the lecturers were quite funny. You know, they lectured us, the university graduates. There were app. 30 percent of men in the company being dismissed from universities and further 30 percent of priests or theology students, so simply, majority of us were highly educated people. So, the primitive commanders lectured us, or better, if they were able to read, they read the lectures on Marxism and re-education. Many times happened, that they asked some of us to lead the lecture instead. Vlado Kolník often did the reading; he went through the paper and commented it, adjusting the text to our conditions.”
