My Best Friend’s Death
On May 7, 1945, Ladislav Švec, a member of the partisan unit called Dr. Miroslav Tyrš, took part in the disarmament of German military hospital garrison located in the school building in Bystřice nad Pernštejnem. “We managed to disarm about 25 German soldiers; it took us only few minutes.” However, prior to the disarmament the hospital garrison informed German soldiers from armoured train standing in the train station who went to their rescue. There was a gunfight and two partisans who were standing guard by the door were killed. These were František Kupsa and Janko Silný – Švec’s best friend. “Janko shot dead two Germans, and the Germans shot him and Kupsa. They were dead on the spot,” recalls Ladislav Švec. He himself luckily managed to escape and four days later, he attended their funeral in Bystřice nad Pernštejnem.
