Bruno Francetić

The street that goes uphill from the cross in Benaši towards Tonići and Kablari brings me Bruno Francetić.

On the Internet address of the City of Rijeka you will find information on the origin of street names, so for Bruno Francetić says:

Bruno Francetić (Rijeka, 1921) – Kamenjak, 1942) – a Croatian anti-fafist and prominent fighter for workers’ rights. He was a member of the Drenova Skojevska Group.

The Society Without Borders The text of mrs. Elda Bariša Bruno was a barba, my mother's brother. Mrs. Elda remembers Bruno's departure to the Partisans and writes:

And my barba is a scarf for your partisans. It was a dream that day to go up to none and hear the remorse of the bastard and the bastard. When the body's dream starts to come in, the barba is the oprl of the door and on the back I told the nonotu “I will ren and I will never come out again”. In 1942 the first fighter died, Bruno Francetić is called our street after the chem.

A few details of his death can be found in the text published by the ‘Lokalpatrioti Rijeka’ group, which says about themselves:

“Lokalpatrioti Rijeka” is a place that gathers lovers of the city of Rijeka and the Primorje-Gorski Kotar region!  It deals with the preservation of Rijeka's identity and multiculturalism as its main value. An independent site primarily oriented to the work of the forum that follows all major events in the city of Rijeka and our region and reveals our history.

Extract from the above text:

On July 5, 1942, Commander 2 was killed. Comrade Nikola Car - Crni Miko of the Primorje-Gorski Kotar Partisan Detachment. On that day, an ambush was set up on Louisiana between Kamenjak and Grobnik in the strength of 140 partisans.... In this action, a comrade was killed next to the commandant of the squadron. Bruno Francetić.

Mrs. Florrick. Elda said the Italians buried all those killed in the action in a common grave in Kozala Cemetery.

Bruno was the first Italian partisan to die and probably the first Italian partisan to die.
