UNRRA/3733
The suspension bridge at Permet. It has had a troubled
history and holds on to life tenuously even now. It
was destroyed by Italians when they held the town
and wanted to keep the Partisans out and by Partisans
when they held the town and wanted to keep the Italians
out. This happened so often that the bridge usually
in river instead of over it and fact that it is there
every morning when they wake up now is the people's
most vivid proof that the war is over. "We thought,"
they said when they had seen it quivering under the
jeep, "that it was going to be destroyed once more
- by UNRRA. That would have been too much." (Alb.
