This book, written in the last months of 1981, is nothing but remembrances left in the memory of the writer for about twelve years, that suddenly simply got out and got recorded, perhaps to remind to some a time of their lives more or less intense and perhaps to tell to others that beyond the camps of the islands there were other ways for punishing dissidents. The Battalions of Mountain Transport, BMT, even during the period they existed, were virtually unknown: few knew their existence. Theoretically, their purpose was to transport with mules weapons and supplies to inaccessible border outposts for the needs of the army, however, in reality, it was a way of punishing young leftists, usually educated, that were dispersed across the border region to do so their military service under often unbearable conditions; among them a few Muslims and a few children who could not join any other military service. An isolated world, stifling, but deeply optimistic thanks to the momentum and vitality of youth, expressed with sincerity, emotion and humor by the writer.
