After the Second World War, a Czech anti-fascist and a Yugoslavian partisan met at a beach on the Adriatic.

Eventually, the inevitable question came up. “What did you do in the war?” the Czech anti-fascist asked the partisan.

“Oh, the usual stuff,” answered the partisan. “We formed underground networks, ran background checks on potential recruits, set up safe houses and clandestine print shops. Then we started sabotaging railways and telephone lines. Eventually, we worked our way up to carrying out raids to seize weapons. With those, we started retaking villages and then whole regions until finally, we ran the Nazis right out of the country.”

“All of that sounds like a great time,” answered the Czech anti-fascist. “Unfortunately, where we were, all of those things were illegal!”
