The major asked me to have a drink with him
and two other officers. We drank rum and it
was very friendly. Outside it was getting dark.
I asked what time the attack was to be and
they said as soon as it was dark. I went back
to the drivers. They were sitting in the dugout
talking and when I came in they stopped. I
gave them each a package of cigarettes,
Macedonias, loosely packed cigarettes that
spilled tobacco and needed to have the ends
twisted before you smoked them. Manera lit
his lighter and passed it around. The lighter
was shaped like a Fiat radiator. I told them
what I had heard.
