Transcript: “So we have a squad of thirteen girls, it was up to me to teach them how to behave. At first the Partisans would tell me what they required and I taught them (the girls). We weren't given heavy arms, just pistols. Every day I was taught something new and then I taught it to them. My approach was different. At the beginning they would giggle, 'ooh, will we hold that!' You should have seen them after a month went by. It was like they were completely different girls. They took it more seriously than I did. Let's do this, let's help, let's ask about what needs doing. At first our job was to train. Afterwards it was to learn how to be girls alongside the men. It was difficult teaching them to behave as equals among them. We learned to use pistols. We did whatever the Partisans asked us to. The Partisans saw that we were successful in performing our tasks.”

Transcript: "Without them, without the Partisans many Jews would have died or shared the fate of the Jews of Thessaloniki at Auschwitz. And they weren't the only ones, many gentiles and many Greek people. They captured Greeks along with the Jews, those who helped the Jews, those who resisted, it was a very grave matter."

"On their first mission, they were ordered to throw Molotov cocktails to distract the enemy and allow the partisans to attack. Impressed by their skills, the male partisans invited the all-female group to join in many missions.”
