How could I describe to you the scene as we came down...down the hill. A scene of Robin Hood. People walking around with rifles, sides of beef hanging, huts, people coming out of the huts, milling, great number of people. I...I never could have believed that this is the way the underground, the underground, the resisters worked. I thought they lived hidden in some kind of a small little place away where nobody would ever find them or such. This seemed to be so open. It...it seemed so open and we were welcomed right away. The leader...we came to a Jewish unit that was called "Revenge," "Nekamah" in Hebrew, and the leader was Josef Glazman. He accepted us with warm arms and right away everybody wanted to know who we saw, the last people that we saw in the ghetto.
