By the ninth day of the offensive

30 villages had been liberated,
1:03:08
1,150 square kilometres won back,

and 100 aircraft shot down.

1:04:26
The Nationalists are in Gerona.

My older brother, Pere, said,
1:04:31
"This is our safe-conduct. We'll
help him till Franco's men come

1:04:35
and then he'll help us."
1:04:40
It's a deal.
