My great-grandfather was the captain of the "Vila Velebita" ship, taken by Italy during the occupation in 1941.

In 1965 he wrote a letter to the Italian Prime Minister Aldo Moro, unsuccessfully requesting the return of the sunken ship from Ortona to Bakar/Buccari.

-  Can we always control every corner of Gorski Kotar?

- We are fighting with experienced fighters. The communist movement here is very strong. These lands gave a lot of fighters in the Spanish Civil War. We arrested some of them. Some fled, they are hiding on Tuhobić. We installed barbed wire everywhere. 

- That's not enough! We have to surround them, to tear out their roots. Every village has to have an Italian judge and an Italian teacher. This will become a peaceful little corner, an Italian Switzerland.
