Statement of Dumas Lombardi about some Allied servicemen

Dumas Lombardi claims he helped, from 9 September 1943 to 18 October 1944, five English prisoners of war escaped from Fornacione camp: Victor Simmons, Reginald Painter, Albert Mountford, Frank Jaques, and David Pugh. He gave them food and clothes. At first, he hid them in a farmhouse and then they moved from hut to hut in the woods to escape from fascist militiamen. In September 1944, he accompanied them to Allied Command at Vignole, in the municipality of Quarrata (Pistoia).
