Blow up the bridge!

On the day after the attack on the Štampetov bridge, blow up the large iron railway bridge on the Gorica – Jesenice railway line as a fighter of the Bazoviška Brigade assisted by engineers from the 9th Corps.

All railway connections across Slovenia towards Italy were thus severed. Because of this, the German High Command was unable to move its units from the Italian battlefields across Slovenian territory. The National Liberation Army of Slovenia thus greatly helped the Allies.
