| Message | AO: Your boycotts do not harm us. Every meeting you try to silence is our victory! Every attempt to harm a UPF member only strengthens our resolve! Your fighting squads will be countered by ours. We will shout "Pro Patria!" as we surge into your lines; whether to victory or to martyrdom. Our uniformed, and disciplined ranks will not faulter in their duty to protect the Party, its members and its leadership. Each knows his task, and each is aware of his sacrifice. Pro Patria! |
