Felinto Paulo de Oliveira Vasconcellos’s Memories
1956 –
20 years old – Engineer’s Course – I went to Engineering Arm. I thought that there
I could be more useful to
11/11/56
– Sunday – The Mass today was full of cadets. Many received the Holy Communion.
The final tests are coming! Also there was no general leave this weekend. My
friend Waldeck liking of a girl named Maria Luiza. She is nice and seems to be
very kind. Today the weather is humid and isn’t good for sports. I didn’t study
also. I thought to go to the Poor’s ward (Vicentin ward) but I hadn’t enough
will. I slept. I watched the movie with rock and roll. It seems acrobatics. I
watched also the beginning of the movie “The sin dwells beside” with Marylyn
Monroe. A movie about the modern life and his moral problems. I’m thinking on
Liz. A photo of her is in the “Cruzeiro” magazine and she was very nice. The
afternoon went quickly. At evening my friend Bras came to talk with me at my
apartment where I was writing. Darzan was writing letters and Horst was
discussing the Brazil’s problems. My square watch Mondaine shows 21:11hs. I’ll
pray and sleep. In the new week I must study a lot.
11/12/56
– Monday – I started the day forgetting my cap olive green. It was because I
delayed myself cleaning my shoes. I repeated it five times during the day. I
went to hospital to see my left elbow. Doctor Souza Lobo sent me to get
radiography. While I was waiting I saw the Officers going out and coming in
their cars. I wrote a letter to my brother Felippe. I cut my hair and gave
Cr$10.00 to the barber because he worked very well. At afternoon I studied
Chemistry and at 15:40 I went to play basketball. There was election at
Vicentina Society. I didn’t like the reciprocal praises. At evening I studied
Topography and wrote this page. My next purposes are to pass well at studies
and to get the driver’s license.
11/13/56
– Tuesday – “Aux yeux des homes de vraie foi, rien sáccomplit qui ne soit
oeuvre de la Providence”(Daniel Rops). Today all was normal but I delayed
myself a bit. There wasn’t the march of the early morning. I took six
radiographies. Doctor Souza Lobo ordered that I should do more exercises with
the left arm with mechanic therapy and rays of wet heat. After studying a bit I
went to watch the movie TAXI. “The subject is about a taxi driver who has only
his car. His mother was used to insist on him to marry. A woman arrives in the
harbor looking for her husband. The taxi driver rides enough with her but they
hadn’t found the husband. She comes back to the ship. The taxi driver brings to
her a packet of letters that she had forgotten. She already has a child. The
taxi driver brings her to his home. They discover that her husband is living
with another woman, is without money and doesn’t will more his wife”.
During
the inspection of this night it was said that the Colonel Manuel Aranha at his
passage to the reserve is offering a prize of 20,000 cruzeiros to the first
cadet of the Artillery Arm. There was election to cadet’s club Vilagran
Cabrita. My left arm is still without his total movement.
11/14/56
– Wednesday –“Jesus aime les coeurs joieux. Il aime les âmes toujours
souriantes”- Sainte Therese de l’Enfant Jesus.
The end
of the academic year. Music’s band at the lunch. My friend Frncisco said to me that
he had read in the magazine “O Mundo Ilustrado” that Elisabeth Gasper
Had
renewed her contract with Carlos Machado for more one year. At afternoon I
played two basketball games. There was permission to disband but few cadets
went out.
11/15/56
– Thursday – “Le Christ est vie, et son message n’a pas de sens s’il n’est à
tout instant infiniment juste et present” D. Rops.
It may
be by habit that I woke at 05:20. I got up and went to do exercises and take a
bath as I had done daily. I studied a bit and at 08:50 I went to Cadet Virgilio
gymnasium. There I met Captain Hugo de Medeiros Dias and my basketball’s
colleagues. There was photos from us with the game’s uniform. Then there was a
game between those that are going out from AMAN as Aspirants and those that
will remain as cadets. The Aspirants who were better won by 14 points of
difference. There was a farewell with soft drinks and some colleagues had
spoken. I wish that they continue playing basketball and being very good
officers, giving all for Brazil. I hadn’t gone to an presentation of choral
sing brought to us by the evangelic cadets’ association. The today’s movie was
English with an artist very beautiful “Jean Collins”, with the title “Three men
and one bikini”. I stayed only until 19:00.
11/16/56
– Friday – “Le courage n’est pas d’ignorer le danger, de ne jamais avoir peur,
mais ayant peur, de marcher quand même”. Il ya a d’une autre courage: celui des
petits gestes don’t chacun demande un effort. I trained to drive car using the
Engineering jeep with Horst. I went to hospital to apply wet heat. I studied
with Otto.
11/17/56
– Saturday – – “Seigneur Jésus donnez-moi la simplicité et la confiance de
l’enfant qui vous prie » Jean Salem. I began well the day being present at
a mass for the soul of Anastasio Somoza from Guatemala. The cadet Edmundo
Röeder Sedilles gave me a souvenir. There were about fifteen cadets and the
mass was celebrated by mayor chaplain priest Archimedes Bruno. At 16 :00 I
reached to win the three games of basketball that I played.
11/18/56 – Sunday - « Lês sots vivent sans trouver
de joie à la vie. » (Démocrite)
I waked
up at 06 :00 and noted that my left
arm was better after flexions. I didn’t go to the mass of Chico there in the
Professional School but the cadet’s mass in cinema’s hall. I studied and played
basketball. I received a letter from my brother Felippe, 2nd lieutenant, that
said: « Rio, Nov 15th, 1956 – Dear brother, Greetings. I couldn’t leave
Rio without before to answer the letter that you ready sent to me when you that
I was in Rio. I liked it, written as a social chronicle. I’m trying to leave
the town of Castro in Parana. I’m thinking to go to Valenca, State of Rio. I’m
going Saturday to Castro at 09 :00 in a Convair 340 from Real. This soften
the sadness for leaving Rio. ( Note : In the year 2001, this my brother is
living in the town Miguel Pereira and feels a trauma when he must go to Rio
because the violence that now exists in this town) . I feel myself very well on
a trip by plane. I spent Cr$4,000 coming and going but it’s worth. I’m looking
foward to buying a car Citroen 51 by Cr$200,000 paying Cr$7,000 monthly.
Certainly you know that our brothers Luiz Carlos e Jose Maria bought a
Morris-Oxford paying this value. It’s a good car. We went up to Barra da Tijuca without problems. Just a little time ago
Edison, our brother-in-law told me that
he could buy with me paying Cr$3,000 and I Cr$4,000 monthly.It’s a subject for
my study. Car is like toothbrush. Pas de
presse! Our mother came to the varanda saying that she was sending to you
kisses and hugs. I enjoyed good days at the house of our sister Maria Helena,
regarded by me as the best hostess of the year 1956. Mrs. Josue Felinto. I was
in Paqueta island for three days. Very good. Sensationell ! I spent Cr$10,000 during these 30 days in
Rio. How ? Je ne sais rien. With a big hug and wishes of steady happiness
at scholar tests, I say good-bye until Castro. From your brother Felippe. P.S.
Raymunda is asking if you should sell to her your blue suitcase and what the
value. If you will not sell, how is the value of a new. Write soon to her with
the answer. She is preparing with great care to be your sword’s godmother. She
already bought shoes, earrings, watch, woven fabric to the dress of that day and a gift to give to you. It sounds she will
be a great godmother. Our mother says that she will not write more to you
because she has no time. The trips to Barra da Tijuca and Marica leave her very tired. She is waiting you for fix her radio that is
on the bed-side table. Without more news
I send to you hugs and reiterate my wishes of happiness., from your
brother Felippe. »
Before
the movie I saw in the cinema a trip by train in Italy. Then I went to study. I
slept at 21:00.

renoncement »(Daniel Rops). I’ve waked at 06 :15. I did gymnastic.

and a little boy called Luiz Fernando and his sister Cristina that always are there
receiving ultraviolet rays. I bought more one toilet soap because having
forgotten yesterday one in bathroom it disappeared. The lunch was earlier, at
11:15. At noon was a worship to the Flag. The Sub-commander spoke about the
deeds wher our Flag was present. Then the ambassador Olegario Mariano adressing
to the Flag did a fine discourse that by his rythm was like a poesy.
11/22/56 – Thursday – « Tentons d’être toujours
celui qui apaise, qui pacifie, fût-ce au détriment de nos goûts » I’ve
been studying Chemistry and playing basketball. I paid Cr$130,00 to the Cap
Medeiros Dias for the photos. I was well in the written test of Chemistry.
Saturday it will be Topography. Horst, Gonçalves and Yapir are buying things in
Resende for payment next year.
11/23/56 – Friday
– « Y-a-t-il bonheur semblable à celui d’une âme heureuse du bonheur des
autres ? » During all the day I studied topography with Villar,
Francisco and Largaespada. At the end of afternoon I went to play basketball.
The team of the Engineering’s officers has won many games. Lieutenant Roehl (
my future teacher in Military School of Engineering-IME-1966) is playing very
well and he is at great form.
11/24/56 –
Saturday – « Heureux les doux, car ils posséderont la Terre » I did a
good test of Topography. It was four hours of calculations and graphics. At
afternoon I played basketball. At evening I watched the movie « The
tragical Tuesday », about one called Canelli condemned to the electric
chair and that ran away. The police discovers his hiding-place and he starts to
kill one by one of the prisioners that
are with him. At the end one of the prisioners kills Canelli and then is dead.
11/25/56 – Sunday
– After the mass I chatted with Bras about electricity. I studied mechanics.
Then I watched a film about th Roses’ Feast in San Francisco, U.S.A.. I turned
over the leaves of Maquis magazine but I
have not liked the way the authorities are criticized.
26/11/56 – Monday
– Mechanics’test. I’ve read many problems solved before the test and therefore
I was not well. I think that the teachers were kind with me giving the mark
5.8.
11/27/56 –
Tuesday – I studied Mechanics and Chemistry.
11/28/56 - Wednesday – The half of the E-2 class
went do the Topography test. We went to the Oliveira Botelho hill. I was
well. It was three and half hours of work. At afternoon I studied Mechanics. I
followed stuying in the days 29 and 30.
12/01/56 –
Saturday – I choose the point 12 in Mechanics. I did a good oral test with Colonel
Benevides. Now they are only Chemistry and Engineering’s matters to do. At
evening I watched the movie “Never leave me!” starring Gene Tierney and Clark
Gable. An American that married a Russian dancer. The police send him back to
America without her. He decided to take her with him. He buys a boat and after
several incidents like getting drunk two policemen he arrives in a town of
Estonian coast, Tallinn. He dresses the uniform of a colonel physician, goes to
the theater and there he succeeds getting back his beloved woman. I liked the
movie.
12/02/56 –
Sunday – I waked at 06:30. I gave my number to the Day’s Officer for taking my
breakfast later. I went to the Mass. I read the little journal “The Sunday”.
The priest Arquimedes Bruno spoke about penance, but saying that we don’t must
be like Saint Anton, Sainte Therese and other saints, because we must eat from all, including meat that give
us protein. The we don’t must have fear of the examiners. As he had forgotten
to consecrate the Hosts, the cadets couldn’t receive Holy Communion. I’m
impressed with my fellows like Paes de Lima, Bethlem, Alcione, Walmor and
others that get marks 9.5, 9.8, 9.4. I think they are superior. I hope next
year to imitate Paes de Lima in Material’s Resistance. At movie’s journal I saw
the sufferance of the people in Hungary and in Egypt. The movie was “Hell and
High Water” with submarine and atomic bomb.. I studied Chemistry. My fellow
Darzan was saying that he didn’t know what he would do. My fellow Ferreira was doing physical
exercises.
12/03/56 –
Monday – Yesterday at night I tried to
study Chemistry, but the digressions about the immensity of the universe with
my fellow Horst didn’t let me. We went to sleep at 21:50. The nights had been
very starry. Until 08:00 I had my hair cut, brought my clothes’ bag and copied
an military music, that of the soldiers that pick up the mines in the
battlefield. Later I studied Chemistry.

Gabriel Gabin. He lied so much that lost the people’s credit.

cousin Maria Lucia and her sons Cláudio, Flavio and Jorge that had come by

donkey and later a mounted the horse Gaucho. There would be a wedding. The
bridegroom is a tiller 40 years old and the bride 19 years old. He gains $10 a

came on Gaucho. A good rain had fallen when we were on the road. Luckily I was
with trousers of my uncle and then I could change the clothes. We arrived at
14:00 and I went to take a bath in a little brook. I awaked with a intestinal
disarrangement. I think that it was due to the pure milk taken from the cow.
I’m reading the book “The Man That Unknown” from Alexis Carrel. I’m on holidays

Maria and Luiz bought a car paying Cr$70,000. It is a Morris-Oxford 1950. Very
good. I went for a ride with Luiz around Saenz Pena Square. Later I went with
Luiz watching the feminine basket game

breakfast. Then arrived my cousin Helio driving a jeep. He drives very well. We
went through “Quinta da Boa Vista”, Brazil Avenue, Rio-Sao Paulo road and

as far from winning the idleness as we are from the cancer and the mental
illness”.

with the same trousers of the feast. They were married not in a church but the

for a wife with good health, to do a perfect prayer, take care with affection

hammock with only a sheet and without a shirt. Caca had awaken several times.

diving in the water near the Ponte. I saw Sandra Miriam that was in the same

front of her and she had seen me. When I passed
she asked: How are you? I answered “Good afternoon!” I hadn’t talked
with her because it seemed that she was with her relatives. I stayed all the
time look at her from the back. She was sewing
a fancy dress. When the boat passed beside the Itapuama island we could
see that some inhabitants were taking bath. When we arrived in Rio, Sandra
Miriam went down because we were in the upper part of the barge. I was near.
She was talking in French with a woman. I asked her if she would enjoy the
Carnival in Rio and she had an affirmative reply. I took a leave from her
saying: “Till the next year because I’m
going to Academy next Thursday. She said: “Hadn’t you told me that it was on
Wednesday? I answered that reading better the license card I had found the
mistake. “Good luck” I said to her. She
asked: You are going to Tijuca quarter, aren’t you? I had an affirmative reply.
From the little bus I saw that she was going to Copacabana in an yellow Cadillac sedan and with a driver
who opened the door for her. I was impressed with the wealth’s manifestation
and stayed thinking about it during the rest of the day. In the Saens Pena
square I crossed my friend Ivan from Artillery and cried: “Bah, che!” but he
hadn’t eared. At home was only my aunt Amelia who had opened the door to me.

in Tijuca. Priest Nicolau prayed the Angelus and Priest Basilio said the mass
where Saint Paul does the apology of charity: “Caritas patiens est”and in the
Gospel Jesus predicts his Passion and cures a blind man. I remembered that when
I was a kid I also had paid attention to this same Gospel at the same
Quinquagesima Sunday. Luiz had carried us to “Barra da Tijuca” quarter. We
passed at the apartment of our cousin Duca
and he said that Roberto would go there if his ( Duca’s) wife went. The
trip was good and the road is almost ready. There is a new night-club called
“Canico”. Our aunt Dalila went with us. The house of my mother is good. The
tree of my dad is still there. There are wardrobes and bed in the dining room.
My mother is very conservative and is very fond of old furniture. The lunch was
without table ware. I had slept a deal on the hammock thinking on the holidays
that are being over and on the Military Academy. Duca and Sergio, Daisy’s
brother had arrived. He has an office

man and well shaved. The cars had arrived and he had run the night-club
playing the record player. Before

Today I did a march on foot to the boundary’s bridge over the Paraiba river.
I’m as the soldier of water supply. The water after the treatment is with
chlorine at 5 ppm and 6.0 pH, when it should
be 6.8 ppm.
At night, at 23:00 I was
working with the pumps, cleaning the filter, when arrived the cadet Carlos
Martins and said: “Attention please, the cadets on duty! I’m waiting the
presentation as I’m the watchman. Then I
said: Then I’m the cadet 200- Vasconcellos, at your command! And followed my working. Martins stayed there
a bit more and said: Then I’ll go to see the other posts that are still
missing. And went out. In the following morning
the cadet Martins had disappeared! God give him the eternal rest! Later
was found by Cap Maranhão his fiber helmet near the river’s bank during a
searching. Then till the end of the
L.D.E.(Long Duration Exercise) some cadets started the searching and other started gathering the
material. The cleaning of the canvas tanks is difficult a deal. All ended at
20:00. At 22:00 I went to pray the Third. We prayed for Martins.
A list was made for the cadets willing to search in the banks of the
Paraíba river. Thinking on the games that I would play in Saturday I didn’t give
my number. A newspaper of Rio had published the following article of the
journalist Oscar Azevedo: “The body of the cadet Martins has not yet been
found. Mourning and silence in the Academy. During the exercises the missing
cadet had saved from the death a little female dog. The father of the young is
in Academy. Divers from the Navy in the Paraiba river. Frog men into operation.
It is missing one among the 78 cadets of the 3rd year of Engineering of
Military Academy of Black Peaks. The
cadet 96 – Martins since six days isn’t present at the review. But his fellows
and superiors know perfectly this missing is for reasons beyond his will. And
when the evening comes and it’s time of the review call, all the other cadets
look to the place where should stay Martins, the fellow par excellence, the
volunteer of the hard actions, and the military performer his duties. And for
that, the whole Academy is absorbed in a silence of reverence and pain, as for
all there is doubt that the 96 was dead victim of an accident only a few meters
from the simulated war field, when on duty, was supervising the sentinels’
posts. But the cadets don’t tolerate
the missing, and, because that, all of the Engineering’s Arm, including the
officers have not slept during the last five days, alternating at ceaseless
searching through all the hiding places of ample open fields and brushwood,
going down into riverside regions and diving into the muddy water of Paraiba
River, where should have perished Carlos Martins. The helmet was found floating
at 1,148 feet from the reinforced concrete bridge over which goes the Highway
Presidente Dutra, distant some hundreds of feet from the last round’s post
where he should have passed. Now, when all human resources at hand in the
Academy were employed, without result, unhappily, the General Command asked the
assistance of the frog-men, divers and plungers from the Navy, in order to
those men more accustomed with the works in the sea can perhaps reach better
success in the crucial and despairing search of the missing young. His fellows,
superiors and parents don’t wish he staying buried into the waters of the
treacherous river. At reveille (06:00, Friday), the other cadets on duty still
were asleep when the Day’s Officer noted the missing of cadet Martins. He
hadn’t waked his following fellow on duty and so all the other slept all the
night. They went to see in his tent and the cadet Silva Lima, who was his pair,
said he didn’t slept there. Where was the cadet? Convinced something serious
had happened, they took to alert the General Hugo Panasco Alvim, Academy’s
Commandant, the Colonel Arold Ramos de Castro, Sub-Commandant and the LTCel
Pedro Luiz Taulois, Cabinet’s Chief. The command quickly mounted an action’s
plan and one thousand and five hundred men, cadets, officers and soldiers came
into operation. From Resende to Ribeirao da Divisa, passing through the
towns Barra Mansa, Volta Redonda, Barra
do Pirai and the places near the river all was searched. The 1st
Armored Infantry Battalion from Barra Mansa and Engineering’s Battalion from
Pindamonhangaba with his divers had helped but without success.
05/12/57 – Sunday – Mother’s Day – During the Mass the Father Arquimedes
Bruno spoke about the missing of the cadet Carlos Martins. He said we should
not being shocked and sad, since Jesus had said in the gospel from today: “More
a short time and you will not see me and a little more time and you will see me
again.”, we believe in the resurrection of the body and the life everlasting. That this intimate resentment is due to the
immortality of the soul and it is the prayer that overcomes it. The Dad of
Carlos Martins who was in red-cream-colored car was going to the place of the
missing. A new group of engineering’s cadets went out for the searching. It was
said Martins’ mother was laying on the bed.
During these days there has not being movies and the games’ room is
closed. Today I received my best Friend
asking to Him for help against my greatest enemy. I’m very sick. Cough,
catarrh in the lungs and flu. Yesterday when I was playing basketball yhe LT
Gedeao ordered to me going out for not to fall
in the court. Actually I need a good heath’s care. During the winter I’m
used to remaining so. I’m longing when I remember from Paqueta Island, where I
was used to drinking orange’s juice Zilda prepared daily and was used to
sleeping on hammock. Now I wish to be better playing basketball. My fellow
Goncalves arrived very tired from a night he was asleep searching the Martins’
body. He went straightforward to the bed.
05/18/57 – Saturday – More a week is passed. The searches for the
Martins’ body go on. I was in the river’s shore during the night from Sunday to

style is the man, also the clenness is the man. Where there is cleanness there
is work, where is work there is hope.” He cited examples: “My son, what want
you at your 14 years? An apartment, a woman or a car, asks Dad. I want the
three, answered the son”. This son later became friend of Father Caetano, did a

in the Casino.

B4A1 Bridge in Paraiba River with LT Tiberio. I worked in the group of anchors
and floating rests. I did work not
enough. Whrn Joelcio went to throw the anchor I stayed in the Resende’s bridge
managing three tied cables. The food was served later because the maintenance
of the bridges’ material was long.
08/03/57 – Saturday – Engineering’s Feast – I didn’t go to the color
oath. I went to the Park where with LT Palazzo, Pimpão and Cunha we thought
about ter presentation of the material of the Bridge M-2. At 11:00 the guests
started to arrive. I spoke a deal. Gongalves was in the Quick-way crane. Otto,
the small, was in the water’s supply and Lousada in the pedestrian bridge. Many
officers and many girls. After there was a barbecue. At 15:30 there was a
soccer game between Art and Eng, where we won by 2 x 1. My friend Chico Santos
introduced me to his mother who lives in Resende, to Villar’s sister and to
some girls. Ismar was with to girls from Pindamonhangaba. There was a snack. I
was very hungry but the snack was softdrink guarana, pies, fish cookies and
patties. Soon was satiated. I had a
headache. I went to the Stelio’s bed and didn’t like my fellows talking about
women near a boy eight years old. I didn’t go to the festive dance reunion due
to the headache and because I was willing to do a good basketball’s training in the following day.
08/04/57 – Sunday – I went to the Mass. The chaplain Mayor Arquimedes
explained the Gospel of the day where Jesus tell about the smartness of the
disloyal manager. He said we need reflection for the foundation of our
personality being solid. He said also that we do not leave our conscience become
a room all dirty and full of spider web, because this inner clarity makes easy
and allows we being leaders in the quarter and in the home. We will be leaders and influence those who
live with us. In the Epistle Saint Paul
tell we are sons of God and therefore coheirs with Christ. I read also the way
we deal with God and the fellow will
give or not to us the eternal life in the presence of God. Afterwards I went to
train alone basketball in the gymnasium.
I trained well, thanks God. After the
food I went to greet some girls in the Professional School. I remained talking
with Joelcio who spoke about the education he received from his father Jaime. I
went to the cinema with him despite I hadn’t planned it. He had received a
telegram from Cristina with whom he had finished the love-making. The cine
journal treated of fashion, race of cars, the geophysics year and weddings. The
film was about an adventure in India. The problem is the half-caste. Here is a
sentence I retained: “I do not hate in plural!”
and the English sentence in the end of the film: “Don’t be fool, marry
with me!” which makes a synthesis of the solution adopted by Victoria (Ava
Gardner) accepting the advice of the Colonel
(Stewart Granger). Pause for reflection: I reread my daily record,
thinking the life passes quickly and the sole joy comes from Goodness. However
it’s hard one to reach the Goodness. I saw the road that I had went through
until now is full of craters and it is missing to build drainpipes to canalize
the waters during the overflows. I saw the laziness is the main cause of the
moral falls and the value of an advice of a confessor. I saw that after the
advice of the Father Boaventura, Liz isn’t for me what she was before. I
succeeded living out of casino. I’m not more reading newspapers and magazines
with the allegation to find news about Liz. At this moment I am without the
concern of love-making because when I read what Saint Paul says in his Epistle
“not to marry is better, but who wishes to marry, get a wife and respect her. I
remembered the sex is one of the main things of life but it isn’t the only. My
goals at this moment are: to be methodic, to avoid the sex and to prepare
myself for being a good officer of Engineeering. To train a deal basketball for
well representing AMAN. To study to the
highest degree. To the arm, firm! Ad maiorem Dei gloriam! In the evening I read
a good book: “Advices to the youth”. I slept early.

explosion. He covered the grenade with his body for not killing more people. AN
HERO! I pray to God for giving to him the heavens as prize. He had planned to
marry in November! “As the river
carries the white pebbles so the life
trails the delusions!” Horst was polishing the floor that I had waxed

Naval. The bus broke down. We won the volleyball by 2x1. There was a fair
reaction; from 10x3 we won by 15x12. In the basket however we lost. The manager
Paluca knew well our way of playing and our throws were bad. We all were sad.
It was the end of a great struggle. We dreamed with the victory and it was the
defeat. Fiat!

the house of our fellow Felintho Quaresma. In my home were Josue and his
family. I slept with Renatinho who was thinking I was his dad Josue and he

will be another water-polo game. In the weekend we shall go to the towns
of Piquete and Pinda. I’m thinking in
the driver’s test I must do. In the study there are many hours still before I
become Army’s Aspirant. Where I shall serve? In Rio de Janeiro or in another

oro fiat illud quod tam sitio, ut Te revelata cernes facie, visu sim beatus
tuae gloriae!”The Maj Chaplain spoke about the need of a life well balanced. We
must to balance the amusement and the study. Even Jesus went to feasts. If you
go to a ball and it ends in the dawn, this isn’t a reason to arrive late in the
quarter. I put an order in my papers.
After the lunch I swept the place where is the radio-gramophone and read the
beginning of the book “Black Cat in a Field with Snow” of the writer Erico
Verissimo. I went to see if Aldalea had sent a letter to me. She hadn’t. My fellows
are in the cinema. The Radio Agulhas Negras from Resende was with a program of
music. My mother perhaps is in Aparecida Town. I shall study Material’s
Resistance for next Wednesday. I slept. I followed reading the book of Erico
Veríssimo. The speaker of Radio Bandeirantes was emotioned with the soccer game
between São Paulo and Corintians. After the supper I talked with my fellow

of an early marriage. I did a copy of the poesy “If” Rudyard Kipling made to
his son. I studied Material’s Resistance. My fellow Darzan was writing a letter

10/22/57 – Tuesday – During the Material’s
Resistance class we went to visit the construction of the new apartments to the
married captains. There the Major Campello from Artillery explained to us the
work. He is a man of short size, green eyes, blonde moustache, glasses at the
belt and dirt buckle. You see he hadn’t done physical exercise during a long
time. He showed several things of the construction and of the office. He didn’t
speak to me about pre-stressed concrete saying it was the last step. Today was
the last Material’s Resistance class. The Maj Carlos Bernardes our teacher
recommended we follow alone studying after this initial thrust. He recommended
to us several books. The Director Agent Cel Armindo also spoke to us. In the evening we had Ballistics’ class where
I didn’t know the ellipsis surface: S= ∏ab. I went to receive Cr$90,00 I
had lent to a soldier. He is good pay and honest. The class of Military History
was about the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. In the evening I studied

10/23/57 – Wednesday – The parade was with the
presence of Gen Hugo Panasco Alvim. The band was with more musicians. During
the test of Material’s Resistance when I found Jmin<Jind I concluded wrongly
that the piece was stable. I should use the value of P from the Jind formula
for more safe. Jind=70Ph2p from where P=Jind/70h2p. My mark was 8.5 thanks
God! Then we had a class about the Use
of the Arm where the Major Chief Instructor of Artillery spoke about the use of
Artillery during the attack.

Mechanical Equipment. Class about Backward Movement. In the evening I slept at

10/25/57 – Friday – Olympic Week. I’m reading
“Crossed Ways” a book from Erico Verissimo and a soldier is passing the
polishing machine in the floor. After reading I was with aversion to the
burgeois life and the life in a great town. What a materialism! You only think
of amusement. All is imitation. I shall try with the God’s help be far from this. That I know with my wife to
educate my children and at the end of my life looking back I feel I did the
best I could. In the evening there was a swimming’s contest. I was timekeeper with LT Gedeao. I did
mistakes two times but then I learnt. The Infantry was the first and the

study. I am without method in my life. Afternoon I slept and went to assist
athletics competitions. Schoolgirls of Education’s Institute for deaf and mute
persons where visiting the Academy. I went to watch the film “Good Morning Miss
Dove”. It is the history of a girl who couldn’t marry and went to be teacher
for paying her father’s debt. She educated severely several generations and had
the gratitude of all, from the policeman to the physician. I liked the film.
Since more one week I’ve not received a letter from Aldalea. Fiat voluntas Dei!
I kept from the film: “What is written, written, what wrong, wrong!”. I went to
sleep at 21:00 without to pray.What is happening? You must have time for all, Felinto!
10/28/57 – Monday – We had instruction with Cap
Fetterman about hodograph. I rained. I studied Ballistics. During the class I
told something I didn’t know well and the all the fellows laughed. I conclude I
must only speak about what I know. I went to study. During the class of

spoke to us. The Maj Cesio from Infantry and the Gen Panasco Alvim told to us
deeds of that war. They recommended a strong military instruction in the
quarters. I studied Ballistics and preyed the Third.10/29/57 – Tuesday – Rain.

SPIRITUAL RETREAT – After the supper I invited
my friend Bras Defilippo to go to a retreat. He accepted the invitation. We
went by bus to the farm of the Jesuit priests (“Tres Poços – Pinheiral – Volta
Redonda”). When we arrived there we were received by the priests, we drank a
glass of milk and went to see the place. The preacher will be the Father
Campos. He is born in the State of Ceara, in the northeast of Brazil. He is a
man of short size with glasses and looks to have less age than his 34 years. He
speaks calmly and connects well the ideas. I went to sleep in an individual
room. The construction is old, of stud and mud. I was well impressed with the
house that remembered to me the Seminary of “Rio Comprido”.
NOVEMBER-1957
11/01/57 –
The 1st Friday of the month and the Feast of All Saints – Mass. We
had many speeches with this sequence:
I – GOD –
EXISTENCE
a) I was born not because I
wished. God is who wished by love.
b) God creator, I creature.
Homage.
c) I must save my soul. It
depends on me.
d) I have finality: “To save my
soul”. Personal responsibility.
II – IN
WHAT CONSISTS THE SOUL’S SALVATION?
a) To save is to put out of
danger.
b) How? LAUDING, REVERENCING,
SERVING AND LOVING, PERFORMING THE DUTY, but for this it’s needed the STATE OF
GRACE.
c) Anything that doesn’t reach
its finality is frustrated.
d) We are made for happiness and
love.
e) God put his creatures as
means.
f) Loving creatures I love God.
g) Preferring the creature I
don’t love God.
GENERAL
RECAPITULATION
The reality of our life.
I’m limited: physically,
intellectually and morally.
This was not determined by me.
I didn’t ask to be put in this
world.
I must to take decisions and to
assume an attitude in the face of the life. (For instance: Going to the Army).
Attitude before the
religious problem. All take an attitude because God is a reality. Initial
premise for us: God exists. I’m creature, I was created, I owe submission to
God. If all has its finality, my existence also shall have. God is the supreme
aim, so to save my soul is also the
supreme aim. Only I can save my soul. What is to save the soul? It is to get
the possession of our happiness. If I didn’t get it, I will be frustrated. This
is the reality, either I admit or not. God surrounded me with things that are
good: plants, minerals, women, and animals to which I owe respect.
III – ERRORS OF LIFE’S CONCEPTION
There are errors of life’s conception. They put
the aim in the pleasures, in the honor, in the power, etc… God had a plan that
was disturbed by the sin, first of the angels and after by the men. This we
know by the revelation. God is good and right. If he punished it’s because the sin is a thing very serious. Adam and Eve
had sinned. The sin is a disorder, a transgression, it is the denial of God’s
authority. But, as the authority identifies itself with God’s person, all
disobedience to the authority is the denial of the person. It’s true we don’t
think so wen we sin. Seeing sin’s consequences we see its importance.
- Responsibility of an Officer.
- The use of the Sacraments.
- The prayer. The devotion to Our Lady.
11/02/57 – Saturday – I follow doing my
spiritual retreat with great inner happiness.
I listen to the speeches of Father Campos, S.J., commenting the Holy
Gospel and I see how many beauties appear after a meditation. From this day on
I intend all the days to read a passage of the Gospel and to write down in this
diary. Today in the talents’ parable I saw Our Lord rewards according to our
strain and generosity. In the evening we all sang. Here are: Jaques, Brasil,
Zacaria, Olsen, Moreira, Paulo Scwingel, Peroni, Maggioli, Bras Defilippo,
Yapir, Saraiva, Moriconi and more one fellow of Artillery. I went to confess with another priest with white
hair telling to him all my life. About the love-makings he told me I should
choose as I was doing a business. I should see the education, the family and
the heath. The beauty I should see in
the mother. I must have many sweethearts without letting appear any
sentiment and choose well. He advised me to wait until I was placed well in the
life. He said he knows many happy couples. He said it was not wise to marry
with a German woman or with the French of a girl or with a girl richer than I.
He said also the soldier’s life is hard and I must choose a woman who undergoes
it and has a great education because this also influences the soldiers. He said
he has been soldier in the 1st Great War from 1914 to 1918 and he
was defeated in the Marne’s Battle. He said a soldier needs stillness and
courage and that this I have. With light soul and entirely satisfied I said to
him: “Thank you very much, Father! Good Night!”
03/11/57 – Sunday – Following the retreat, I
sang near the harmonium with Jaques and Saraiva. I received the Holy Communion.
There was a speech about the matrimony. Questions. We had our photo taken. Then
we had a lunch and after we said farewell.

11/05/57 – Tuesday – Building a wooden bridge.
There was a mistake when leveling for lack of more care but this was used for
creating a new solution.

exercise. I was the operator of a radio transmitter and receiver called
“Rad-300” made in Brazil with Jael and Otinho. There was a speech about the 1st
Engineering Grouping headquartered in the Northeast of Brazil. I understood its
finality is very good and it compensates the dedication of one’s life. Later I
answered to a letter of Aldalea.
11/07/57 – Thursday – We followed the bridge’s
construction. We verified that its self weight is very great.
11/08/57 – Friday – We went marching to near
the landing field. We did reconnaissance during the night and we came back to

Sergio Garrido Pinto about the military life and the love-makings. He thinks
I’m very rigorous when applying the rules.
11/09/57 – Saturday – We followed building the
wooden bridge under the management of LT Tibério. The rain was like a storm. I
went to sleep early.
11/10/57 – Sunday – I didn’t go to the Mass due
to the building of the bridge. “Fiat voluntas Dei!” There was the inauguration
of the bridge called “Cadete Martins”My fellow Theberge and the General Panasco
Alvim had spoken. Six months passed since our fellow Carlos Martins disappeared
into the Paraiba River. I hope God has him in the Heaven. He now is considered
died. In the evening I talked with my friend Bras Defilippo about Liz and
Aldalea. I’m facing a dilemma.
11/11/57 – Monday – I have not yet found time
to start the study of the year’s end. There were meetings and the farewell of
the cadets of Academic Society “SAM”.

marching in line. There was an helicopter landed in the “PTM – Patio Tenente
Moura”- Courtyard LT Moura, the main yard of the Academy. There were posters
about the study of the year’s end. I played volleyball and sent a letter to my
brother Felippe and a pennon to the Sergeant Gentil. The weather is hot. I
prepared all for beginning my study. I received a letter from my sister Maria Jose. Thanks God all in
the family are well. Today Joelcio’s Father came to visit him. I watched the
film “Lisbon” about an history lived in that town. A smuggler who was used to
kill birds for giving them to his cat. An American, a wife of an old
millionaire and a beautiful Portuguese girl. The American was very fond of
kissing. The film showed an unsatisfied wife for having married for money a man
very older than her. Later I went to study.
11/13/57 – Wednesday – The last parade. The
paratroopers follow jumping near Academy. Cloudy day. Rain. I studied Military
History, Communications, Material’s Resistance, Use of the Arm and Ballistics.
At 21:15 unhappily I went to talk with Roeder and Largaspada about war and
Brazil and so I didn’t studied. There was a paratrooper in the recreation room.
11/14/57 – Thursday – Cloudy day. I studied
normally in the morning Military History and the Use of the Arm. Afternoon I
studied Material’s Resistance. I didn’t go to the cinema. I slept and phoned to
my mother. My fellows Alcione and Alcoforado were studying near the telephone’s
room. My mother said all were well in the family. I asked if someone was
wishing to go to ball in Quitandinha, near Petropolis town. She spoke to me
about a girl of a fine family. I asked her to buy my officer’s sword. She
congratulated with me for having gone to the retreat. I went to sleep very
happy. Some fellows went to Rio de Janeiro.
11/15/57 – Friday – Day of the Republic’s
Proclamation of Brazil. I woke up at
05:15 and went to study Ballistics. The reveille was at 06:50. The day was like
the others, but at 10:40 I went to play basketball. I was very aimless when throwing
the ball in the basket. Today my study didn’t yield because I received photos
and after I went to prepare my uniform to the duty of Patrol’s Commandant in
the town of “Agulhas Negras” tomorrow. I slept at 22:40 after talking with my
fellow Mack about the Catholic Religion. I even was impressed with the
commandment “Love God over all the things and the fellow creature as we love
ourselves”.
`11/16/57 – Saturday – I woke up at 04:50 by
the alarm clock. I prayed the Third. I studied with Chico Santos and
Largaspada. In the evening I went as the Patrol’s Commandant to survey the
town. Here is what happened:
“The Commandant of the Agulhas Negras’s Patrol
when asked at 23:20 about the existence of cadets in the area of “Campos
Eliseos” quarter, insinuated there were cadets not wishing to return to
Academy. When he was questioned if was cadet a person who was in a bar drinking
beer, he answered he didn’t know that person. As that person looked a cadet I
ordered him to be informed. Returning he
gave me an affirmative answer saying the cadet seemed to be drunk and was not
wishing to return to the Academy. He asked to me how to proceed and I ordered
him to write the cadet’s number and to send him for changing his clothes and
returning to Academy. When once more questioned the cadet Vasconcellos
confessed he knew that cadet in the bar since the Preparatory School in Sao
Paulo. The name of the cadet was Walter Novais and he was of the 2nd
year of Intendance”. When I read this Officer’s part I saw it had some mistakes.
Now I will write all that happened: “At 23:00 some cadets arrived from the area
of the bar “Divina Providencia”. They were using civilian clothes. Then the
Patrol’s Corporal and two other cadets on duty returned from the mission I had
given to them minutes ago to tell to these cadets they should return to
Academy. The Patrol’s Corporal, cadet Tourinho said to me the majority had the
formal authorization for staying till later. Then I see the cadet Meziat
inviting the cadet Novaes to return to Academy. Sometimes Novaes walks towards AMAN. But he just went to a
bar, entered in the snooker’s room and went out. He was in the bar when the
jeep with the Day’s Officer at Garrison appeared. The fellow Meziat warns cadet
Novaes. The jeep went to the old bridge, returned and the cadet Novaes was
still in the bar. I went to present myself to the Day’s Officer, omitting the
sentence “duty without disturbances”. He asked if there were cadets in the
area, I said yes, but I couldn’t take some cadets by force but I would follow
the mission. He answered to me it shouldn’t be more cadets in the area. I
started checking the bars without going to the bar where was Novaes giving him
time to return to Academy. Finally I passed in the bar where he was and in a
last trial I signaled to him to return to Academy because it wasn’t still
23:30. I went out to see other places despite
to believe there wasn’t another cadet but Novaes. At this moment the
Day’s Officer called me and asked if there still were cadets. I answered yes but
I was with difficulty to convince him to return to Academy. He said to me since
the beginning had noticed Novaes in the
bar in front and asked to me if he was
cadet. I answered I was going to check it. I went then to the bar but Novaes
was in the bottom of the snooker’s room. I went to him and said: “Look Novaes,
the Day’s Officer has already perceived
you are cadet and ordered to me writing your number and you must return
to AMAN. He said to me: “You will say to him you didn’t find me and that I’m
not a cadet. OK? I intimately was admired to what point a person can reach. I
succeed he going out, giving his number to the
adjunct cadet at Garrison (Helio from Artullery). Seeing the Day’s
Officer the cadet Novaes addressed himself to him and did his presentation.
Then went to the Laranjeira’s house, where the cadets change the clothes. The
Day’s Officer Cap Cirillo from Chevalry,
said to me I had acted weakly and in connivance with Novaes. I told him I had
had difficulty as Novaes had been my fellow since Preparatory School in Sao
Paulo. It was this mine sincerity that unlike I was thinking caused him
ordering the Adjunct to emphasize a lot this on his part. However, I had acted
trying to give greater opportunity to Novaes without violating the rules but I
hadn’t succeed at all the points. Not even I’m a friend of Novaes, but as I
knew well his life, I tried to act on a way where I should give the part and
not the Day’s Officer who didn’t know him yet. At 23:30 I already had told to
the Patrol’s cadets we would do a complete check of the place and all the
cadets in Agulhas Negras without permission
would be committed to paper. I wasn’t in connivance with Novaes as if so
I shouldn’t be just in front of the bar he was, waiting the Day’s Officer and I
was needing also the orders for the cadets’ return.
11/17/57 – Sunday – This week I went to sing in
the church of Resende. All was well. Early I was tardy to the company’s array
but Cap Milazzo accepted my explanation about it. I’ve been worried about the
solution will be given to the part of Cap Cirillo from Equitation Section about
my duty in Agulhas Negras. During the test of Material’s Resistance that lasted
3 ½ hours we had coffee, chocolate and alarm-clock. I had headache due to bad
digestion. I’ve been studying to the tests and I’ve not going to cinema. I’ve
been writing to Aldalea but I feel I’m not liking her very much. My fellow
Roeder with his usual greeting: BEEE!
11/23/57 – Saturday – I had taken a photo of
mine to identity card. I follow waiting the part’s solution about my duty in
Agulhas Negras. I shall be punished with imprisonment.
24/11/57 – Sunday – I went to the Mass. The
Saint Maurice’s Choir sang very well for the last time. The cadet Cunha was
very good singing “Silence”.
11/25/57 – Monday – Test of Ballistics. My mark
should be 5, thanks God! Later I studied the Use of the Arm.
11/26/57 – Tuesday – Cadet Novaes was punished
with 10 days of imprisonment. Test of Use of the Arm. I’m on duty as Adjunct of
the Day’s Officer at Academy.
11/27/57 – Wednwsday – I studied Ballistics. I
was present at the Mass for the victims of Communist Conspiracy of November,
1935. Father Arquimedes spoke about that malignant tumor that appeared in the
Army in that occasion. I’m waiting the
punishment of 10 days of imprisonment. I’m troubled how to study there. I trust
God. When Novaes saw me seeing to him, he smiled. I studied well Ballistics.
The air’s resistance. Gavre’s and Siacci’s methods. Method of secondary and
primary functions, Parodi and Siacci. I received Cr$1.436,00 as salary. My
punishment with 10 days of imprisonment was published. “Fiat voluntas Tua!” I
studied in the adjuncts’room. There were more six cadets in the prison. I
thought the prison wasn’t a good place for studying.
11/28/57 – Thursday – The first reveille in
prison. I woke up at 05:00. I studied Ballistics and took a bath. I went to
choose my point in the test’s room. It was 11. There were my bright fellows
Alcione and Bethlem in the presence of the General Hugo Panasco Alvim. Even the
Sputnik was subject of their talk. I was tested by Cap Vasconcellos from
Artillery. I was well, thanks God! Afternoon I tried to study History but I’ve
not succeed due the talk of my prison’s fellows. I went to ask to the Day’s
Officer to study in the adjuncts’ room but he said to me the prisoner’s
situation was different. I studied, did
physical education and took a good bath. My mark in Ballistics was 7.2. Wow! In
the evening I studied beneath the shower. My friend Chico Santos came to see
how I was. I took kindly to this way of life. It’s just to make good use of the
time because it passes quickly.
11/29/57 – Friday – I studied Material’s
Resistance. I’ve been studying in the bathroom
where the clarity and the silence are suitable. I feel the prisoner’s life is one of
expectation. May be so the saints lived in this earth. I think however if you
try to forget there is another way of life and you try to make the little
branch with the flowers you have, you will live well without the reality of
being imprisoned damaging you. So I’ve
been studying and reading the Holy Gospels. Afternoon and in the evening I studied History.
11/30/57 – Saturday – I choosed the point 13.
The Day’s Officer went to the prison and said aloud: “I don’t wish to see
anything wrong, because if I see I’ll commit it to paper!”I was examined by Maj
Aragao and Cel Cardoso. I was well. Maj Angelo commented: “What a “decoreba””!
He was saying I had learnt many things by heart without understanding. My mark was 8.6. Afternoon I studied
Material’s Resistance, but it didn’t yield well. I went to be identified. A
sergeant who had seen the incident in the bar in Agulhas Negras said to me:
“You came off badly at the bar’s incident, no?” – I replied: “I followed a
dangerous way!” Horst Bockler said to me his girlfriend Zenaira had answered to
his birthday’s greeting. I studied Material’s Resistance until 23:30. It didn’t
yield well because I was sleepy.

Advent’s Sunday – I went to the Mass, I sang and received the communion. I
commented with Jesus: “Here I am serving a ten days’ term of prison. It’s the
human justice. How shall be your justice if these days are hard for me?” I beg
your pardon for my sins. I wish to be a good disciple. I’m very grateful for
all! I feel how the prophets were anxious when they sang: “Rorate coeli desuper
et nubes pluant Justum!”. I ask You to be born in many hearts by your Mother
Mary! I studied Material’s Resistance. Fluminense had lost to Vasco in a
soccer’s game in Rio de Janeiro. Mosquitoes. Bites. Sleepiness. I wrote a

the beach one of the examiners when I did the drive’s testing. I admired the

the people in the beach. Persons of all kinds. The old woman looking as
a girl, smoking and laughing. The weightlifter all proud of his strength. The
gymnast looking as owner of an exclusive qualification. The dad taking care of
his children. The negro kid having fun with the other white kids using the
sand. The woman looking as a smart one. A sailing boat with its indolent
passengers. The three girls with which I was sharing the looks. In Maria

Cardinal Archbishop of Rio de Janeiro, assisted by my fellows in Seminary:
Julio Wolfgang and Simoes. Later Dom Jaime spoke and I noted a woman going out
saying he was flattering the town’s Prefect. That saddened me. Afterwards I
went to the night-club N%ight and Day where I talked with Liz. I found her very
nice. During two hours I stayed outside reading a magazine and a newspaper.
When we were leaving I saw the soccer’s player Didi who had seen the show
“Mister Samba”. Liz and I went by taxi to her home in the Jockey Club quarter.

I talked with her brother Peter, 17 years old, with her sister Bärbel, 12 years
old and with her mother Elsbett. I was sad when knowing her father Mr. Werner
did leave the family. I pray to God he comes back if possible. I saw they like
dogs because there were two ones. Later Liz appeared. She ate a snack and put
long-playing records and we talked. The family was used talking in German
language. Later I went with her to downtown. At 19:00 we took a little bus back
to Leblon. We talked a lot. In her home was a friend of her from Pernambuco
State named Olga with her son. Her talk was like one of my Aunt Arthemira. She
was divorced. They invited me to the supper. I accepted. Olga dominated the

12/29/57 –
Sunday – I went to the Mass at 07:00. At home I didn’t wish going to “Barra da
Tijuca” quarter with my mother because I was waiting a call from Liz. I tried
to fix the radio of my brother Luiz and noted two valves misplaced. I have been
studying German. In the evening I decided to go Leblon quarter, where I didn’t
meet Liz at home. I lost my trip!
12/30/57 –
Monday – I went to the Mass at 07:00. I went downtown to receive photos, but
when I was arriving I read the receipt
and saw the day was other. What a distraction! For not losing again a trip I
bought a valve for the Luiz’s radio. The radio was fixed, thanks God! Afternoon
we talked a lot in the dinner-room: Maria Jose, Maria Helena, Felippe and I
about our lives. Father Jose Maria and Raymunda were at home. He asked me if
Liz was well. I answered yes. I started to put my bags in order. My mother
began to speak against Liz. “She isn’t good for you! I can’t think about it. My
dear son, no! You will go to Curitiba and there your godfather Father Augusto
shall show a very good girl to you. This girl, no. Showing her body, temple of
the Holy Ghost, as she shows! How many men she induced to the sin! When they
had shown to me a photo from her I didn’t wish to see. Her parents are divorced
and she shall wish the same someday. And began to tell family’s deeds and more
deeds for persuading me to leave Liz”. I replied, having my sister Maria Jose
with me: “My mother you can’t say she isn’t a good girl. You didn’t see the
deeds of Gospel, the ones of Mary Magdalene and of the adulterous woman, and
Jesus eating with the publicans and sinners? We followed discussing without I
reaching anything. I pray to God, to Our Lady and to Saint Joseph for taking
care of this matter. The weather has been very hot in Rio. Today my nephew
Renato and my niece Patricia became dirty with mercurochrome and with an oil of
my mother. There were many kids in the house. I intended going to Paqueta
Island but it wasn’t possible.
12/31/57 –

the future.
JANUARY-1958
01/01/58 –
Wednesday – I went to the mass of 07:00 and received the communion. My mother,
with 64 ½ years, awoke me sayng she had lost her glasses. I’ve been studying
German. My sister Maria Helena with Josue and the kids are still in our home.
My brother Felippe too. They are going out today. Yesterday I listened to a
call to Felippe from o girl of the times of Preparatory School in Sao Paulo.
She spoke with Luiz about me. Her name is Luci. I found funny the way Luiz
spoke with her. My brother Felippe is used to speak about good meals. As
“galetto al primo canto” and good clothes. He didn’t like a couple living in
the old room of Raymunda. My cousin Lea, her husband Manoel and their son
Jorginho are living downstairs. Manoel knows to manage a talk. He is always
with the newspaper “Ultima Hora” with him. In the evening I already was in the
bus when I remembered I didn’t say farewell to Felippe. I came back and said
farewell to him. I went to the apartment of Dona Elsbett, but I didn’t find
anybody. I talked with the doorman and went to the little church of the place.
There I saw Father Sergio, known by me in the Seminary, who was baptizing a
baby. In the building Prado I saw some girls of the coca-cola generation I
didn’t like. Dona Elsbett appeared and I received from her a Liz’s picture. I
did leave a note to Liz, wishing to her a Happy New Year. I went out with
Peter, her brother and we talked. He intends to be an Architect, saying if he knew he would be like Nyemeier he
should study a lot. I returned to my house where I met my mother, my brother
Luiz and my brother-in-law Edison. My
nephew Affonso arrived, saying the Island of Paqueta was very good. Luiz and
Edison were commenting the conjugal infidelities existing now in the modern
world.
01/02/58 –
Thursday – I went to the mass and received the communion. At home, after some
hesitation, my mother, Dilma and I went to “Barra da Tijuca” quarter. There our
family, thanks to my cousin Dr Edgard obtained
terrains. The problem is the shortage of water, of supply of electric energy,
and of provisions. The ideal is to own a car for going there. My mother would
combine with Jose, husband of my cousin Osmarina who has a taxi, but he was in
Paqueta Island. We went to the quarter “Usina” and there we took a little bus
wrongly, and we had to take a taxi from Copacabana to Leblon. Arriving in the
Guaiamus island, called before Gigoia, I saw some new wooden houses and a
masonry house under construction. There is a poor family living in the old hut
built by my dad before his death in 1954. I took bath in the lagoon, fixed a door and prepared the paint for my
mother. I slept a deal. I see here is a very good place for resting. In the
evening, lying in a hammock, I sang all my repertory. My mother was listening
in her room. Later we sang together church’s songs , like the Hymn of the
Eucharistic National Congress, of which she was very fond. The night was very
beautiful.
01/03/58 –
The first Friday – I woke up with the sun already a bit high. Here, during the
afternoon it winds a lot and in the evening the weather sometimes is cold. What
a difference from Saenz Pena square in
the Tijuca’s quarter where my mother lives. I took two empty large wine’s
bottles with me and after have discussed during almost one hour and half with
my mother about Liz, I went by foot to the center of Barra quarter. The walk is
hard but I use it as an exercise. The sunlight is intense. A girl taking her
car from the garage. Bananas. Sugar-cane juice. Bread. Packthread. My finfers were aching. Bath in
the lagoon. Afternoon na old fisherman from the State of Ceara, in the
Northeast of Brazil, talked with me telling he had been catholic but now is protestant.
My mother gave to him some advices. I returned to our house in Tijuca for two
reasons. The first was for receiving the
communion of the first Friday and the second for waiting the call from Liz. In
the square XV the queue was huge. I saw my brother-in-law Frank and my fellow
Calomino, a good player of the basketball team of AMAN in from 1954 to 1957.
Thanks to the Good Heart of Jesus just when I got down in front of the church
of the Sacred Hearts and entering I saw Father Nicolau giving the communion.
And it was already 19:50! I was very glad! At home I did meet Raymunda caring
of the house as usual. I took a bath, had the supper and awaited for the Liz’s

routine of the life in a quarter. I asked to God for guiding my life.
03/24/58 –
Monday – Instruction. A normal day like thhe others. I woke up with a bad “good
morning!” since the room was inundated. I had asked to the Day’s Sargeant to
switch on the water’s pump but one tap stayed open during all the night. In
consequence I worked hard until the soldiers came helping me.
04/1/58 –
Tuesday – I’m in the Military Hospital since 03/29, Saturday afternoon. 5th
Communication’s Company was in the farm doing a long duration’s exercise.
Actually we were one day late because our Commander Cap Dirceu didn’t like of
the rucksacks’ arrangement in the day 27’s morning. In the end of the
instruction of Mines and Traps when arranging a little bag with powder near the
pressure’s mover, this might have work only with the weight of the wooden board
I had put over producing a quick powder’s burning. My fingers were also burned
and I felt a lot of pain. The soldier Mechon cared for me, having been very
kind. I went in a military vehicle to the quarter and after to here with LT
Muller. For enduring the pain I came with the hand inside the steel helmet.
Last Tuesday I was champion playing with the basketball team of the Paraná
Esportivo newspaper, thanks God! Already came to visit me the Cap Dirceu with
grapes, apples and newspapers. The sergeants Santinor, Barbosa, Trindade,
Osmir and the soldiers Jorge and Reinold Stephanes, all in the
Sunday. Monday I haven’t received visits. Here are nuns who care very well the
patients. There is with his mother an officer R2 (Mario) sick and very nervous.
There are several sergeants and soldiers. The new and beautiful pavilion is
almost ready. In the evening I had a pleasant surprise, as Lidja came to visit
me with Araldo an Engineering’s student. I was very glad. I have been reading
many good books. One is about the Purgatory’s souls. It’s from Monsignor
Ascanio Brandão. Another about the life of Mother Mary Teodora de Voirou, of
the Saint’s Joseph congregation. Another from Monsignor Henrique de Magalhaes
“To those who suffer…”and another about the life of the Priest Miguel Agostinho Pro, Mexican martyr. I’ve
been thinking on many things and on God, I’m grateful to God for giving to me
this week for meditation and patience. So rest in peace the blessed souls of
the Purgatory!
04/02/58 –
Wednesday – A very beautiful day. I was treated again of my hand. I was
thinking returning to quarter but Dr Durval didn’t liberate me. This physician is a short man,
having tendency to corpulency and smokes cigarettes of the brand “Douradinhos”.
He asked me if I was from Rio de Janeiro, from what quarter and from what
street. I enjoyed a bit the sun. I went to the hospital’s chapel where I prayed
at the fourteen pictures of the cross. My friend Asp Joelcio sent to me the
things I have asked from him. The sergeants Ramos, Miranda and Walfrido came to
visit me. Soon after arrived Lidja with a white skirt and a blue blouse. I was
very glad. I was talking with her when the civil servant arrived with the dinner.
It was 16:10 o’clock! I was eating when my friend Asp Sergio arrives. We talked
a lot. He said the day’s officer duty was every second day but it will finish
tomorrow. Also arrived LT Ribas with a nephew. Later they went out Sergio,
Ribas and his nephew. I stayed with Lidja. We still talked a lot. She told to
me the movie “Marcelino, Pane, Vino”. It’s a story of a kid, twelve friars and
Crucified Jesus. Lidja said to me she is thinking on her sick mother. I found
her a bit pale but I liking her a lot and was very glad when with her. At 18:15 I’m alone in the room. I think… I
must orient well my life. You pay love with love. Jesus gave his life for me. I
can’t be ungrateful. He was an example of humbleness and generosity and I can’t
be different. I wish to be a very good catholic. I wish to please God and to be
a good son of the heaven’s Mother. For this: prayer, work and generosity. After
a quick reading of the book of Monsignor Magalhaes for copying the more
original sentences, I started reading the Monsignor Cauly’s catechism. I
delayed more reading the parts about Eucharist. I went to bed after the Third’s
prayer.
04/03/58 –
Maundy Thursday – Again a very beautiful day. Few persons in the hospital.
Sun-bath. I talked with the electrician mechanical man and with the nervous
patient and his mother. I follow reading the Mons. Cauly’s catechism. I see how
beautiful is the religion my parents gave to me! Thanks be to God for such a
great grace! Afternoon at 16:00 I went back to the Chapel (very beautiful) and
was to the Saint Mass said by a full-bearded friar. I received the communion.
Reading. Talking with a LT from the Maintenance’s Company. Religion. Third.
04/04/58 –
Good Friday – I meditated about the
Jesus’ death and had desires for a better spiritual life. My friend Joelcio
appeared. We talked a lot. He told the week had been hard. The Exploration’s
Platoon is giving many disturbances. The day’s officer duty had finished. His
girlfriend Shirley has appeared many times in the newspapers. The Commander is
not liking I staying so long time here. Joelcio said also his parents are going
back to Rio. He and the soldiers are practicing physical exercises. He has been
sleeping a lot. He had left our friend Sergio in the church and had come to see
me. He left with me Cr$100,00 as a lending. I was very glad with his visit. I
set a schedule for my life and I hope follow it. Afternoon I prayed at the
fourteen pictures of the cross but I felt myself a bit inattentive. I read some
articles of the Military Review about a future war. I think about the
transformation had been since the Jesus’ time. How many wars, how many plots,
how many nonsense. And to think that a new war may happen at any moment. How
much misery the war will cause! How much pain! Fortunately despite our
proclivity to the Evil, God beckons with the Eternal Life after a life for the
Goodness. I said a prayer. I read the catechism, prayed the Third and went to
sleep.
04/05/58 –
Holy Saturday – A beautiful day. I walked a bit in the courtyard, I was treated
of my hand seeing I’m becoming healed, thanks God. I would like being
discharged from the hospital today but the physician didn’t come. I succeed
however going back to quarter and the sisters have left the mass’ acolyte of
tomorrow. In the quarter I found Joelcio and Sergio in the bed resting. In the
evening after the supper I had my hair cut,
I sent letters to home (to my mother ant to Affonso) and passed through
the Cathedral. In the street I was approached by a woman but soon I put an end
to the talk. I went to sleep at 23:00 but Joelcio and Sergio went to Military
Circle. And only these things for today. I’m with a great wisht having my hand
healed, playing basketball, studying, praying and being in love.
04/06/58 –
Easter Sunday – I woke up early. I had a good sun-bath and read a bit a good
book. After I went out to the Cathedral with Sergio for the High Mass said by
Dom Elboux. It took two hours and I saw Sergio wasn’t used to it. When going
out we found LT Ribas and his wife. I took an injection and we returned to the
quarter. The soldiers Stephanes and the 112 came asking for the ball of
basketball. Sergio didn’t like and Joelcio and I laughed a lot. I read in the
newspaper “Voz do Paraná” that the USA’s Army had thrown in 02/26/58 the third
American satellite, Explorer III with 2 meters long and 13 kg weighty. It makes
a revolution around the Earth during 121min with a speed of 28.800km/h. Afternoon I went out and
passing through the church of Portao I saw the Mass but I didn’t understand
what the Father was telling. I went to visit Lidja. She was having the supper. I talked with Barnabe
about studies and sports. I went with Lidja to the public garden where we
talked a lot. I found her looking like Ester Williams. I spoke about many
things, including Liz. She gave to me an Easter’s gift, a little plush rabbit
with chocolate’s eggs. She showed to me the missal she had sent to be bound, it
was very good. I said to her I would give to her also an missal by gratitude. I
went back to the quarter very glad.
04/07/58 –
Monday – At 04:45 Sergio woke up. He is going today to the town of Ponta Grossa
with the commander Cap Dirceu for a tactical military exercise. I put on the 6th
uniform ant went to the hospital. Afternoon I gave instruction and made something
in the office, but with my left hand with bandage it’s a bit difficult for me.
At the reading of the Internal Bulletin I heard many punishments to the soldiers. In the evening I studied English and
Portuguese and talked with Joelcio about our lives.
04/08/42 –
Tuesday – I put on the 6th uniform and went to Hospital. The
sergeant took off the bandage from my hand and I stayed waiting a lot an

Afternoon I gave some instruction to soldiers.

with her. I stayed telling sentences like this: “I think the love-making a lost
of time!”. She didn’t go to the German class and we went to another square near
the boarding house of Dona Lota. We talked still more but I was seeing I was
going to bring to an end our love-making for I wasn’t feeling more attraction
to her looking only at her imperfections. Finally we went to the boarding house
from where I parted, leaving the mass-book again with her and saying I should
return next Sunday. I taold her I was a bit confused. I walked through the
streets humming. I purchased the
newspaper “O Globo” and ate a pizza. I drunk milk with fruit and returned to
quarter. I think this way was the better for I’m feeling myself relieved. I may
live more free. By the way this same
thing had occurred with me when Liz had put an end to our love-making, when I
ended with Aldalea and now it is the same with Lidja. I don’t feel myself fine
when tied to someone. I wish to be free. I wish to work without concern about a
woman I’m used to finding imperfections. May be this is selfishness but I hope to arrive back in Rio
de Janeiro free as before, praise it to God! I see Lidja is liking me a lot and
I should like her too, despite the little imperfections we all have. But later
it might happen I could not win my annoyance. Am I doing it wrongly? I hope the
Holy Ghost shall illuminate me and shall show to me the right way. Now I read
again my diary and I see I’m still liking Liz. I haven’t still find another
person who fades this reminder. However Liz offers many difficulties. I think
that with her perhaps the same thing would happen. I just read she is working
in the TV-Rio at the Wednesdays. And… more one month finished! Ad maiorem Dei
gloriam!

continued when in the gate of the house of the Da. Lota, you he is very proud.
You think that she is irresistible. I already had some pleasure to its side but
you he did not maltreat me. You still think as child. I think that a man of 22
years already must know to act with certainty. I have the impression that you
are accustomed since child to this life of quarter and she does not know to
act. I never asked for to nothing you. He is clearly that the fact of I to know
would go it to influence in my life. You he arrived and he said: it goes to the

before acting, using to advantage the experiences of the past, to think about
the future and therefore to make the best possible one in the gift. To work
with spirit, to suffer without lamenting me and living in an irreproachable way
and finally to die in peace, the hope of my perpetual happiness. Everything
this with the aid of the Good Jesus! Vile mea in works! "That one that
satisfies its instinct sexual is of the marriage wants touching its proper body
to excite in itself impure joys exactly, wants having relations with woman
before if having associated it as wife, is the executioner of the proper honor
and the proper misfortune, as much for itself exactly as for other"

still more that I will start to study and I will have little time to think
about sentimentalismo, with the favour of God! I am a little disoriented since
that the Lidja finished with me. I think a little about the future and I see
that I must have in the end of the next year a Cr$200.000,00 if God to want. It
would like to have more. I think about buying an car. Until the solution it is
there to walk of bus. Therefore I will not think more about this. Until I do
not want there to marry, then I will not be worried in arranging namorada.

you want! Not if afobe! He is not idle! It looks the Kingdom of God and the
remaining portion will be given to it in addition! It works, it suffers, it
smiles, it lives, everything only waiting in God and not in the men. It does
not gather treasure here. It treats to gather it in the sky! It loves in
silence. The time passes fast. It takes care of of its soul and its health. It
forgets the remaining portion! It does not create a frustration feeling that
makes badly. The characteristic of youth is the HOPE! QUOD ACTS ACTS! I see in
the life of the couples a certain loss of time. I find that the others do not
know to live. I do not go the cinema for example. I do not go the balls
therefore I see that the results do not compensate. Desire a life that in
nothing harms my health. To sleep to the 22:00. Strolls. Nothing of social
formalities. Life of discoveries. Of small inventos. Life for the home without
never leaving to love. Always increasing the love for the future mother of my
children. Therefore so far I did not love plus nobody as I loved the Liz

the daily one all. I only confirm that valley the joy of the useful work. I
found interesting as I was capricious and voluble with the Lidja. I decide to
only think about the Liz because she is the only one where I do not feel
variation. Same taste and with great intensity. When it will be to the River I
will go to speak with it, if God to want. I find a good idea for me to try to
reattach the correspondence with the Liz, not to think about namorar nobody,
studying with the sacrifice of the comfort, to work in the best way, to take
care of of the health with a duty, to be a perfect catholic as essence of the
existence. Always "Ad Astra". In this year that passed I suffered
many moral defeats but always the flame of the ideal shone. I find that not the
penalty was valid To have late slept late nor waked up. I must be more methodical.
I failed a little in the religiosidade, I can be more merciful, more go to the
mass and to comungar. I did not take care of very of sáude. The goals for 1959
are: state of grace, study, conjunct, health and method. YEAR OF 1959 01/01/59
- fifth - Circuncisão of the Gentleman - I woke up late. The Beatriz
telephoned. I combined a stroll of lambreta. I was for the side of the Graces.
I exaggerated in the affections. In the return, when a dog advanced, I
dissimulated to give a kick and lambreta lost the balance, going to the soil. I
broke the pára-shock. Arranhei me in the arm and the left foot. I interpreted
as a punishment of Ours Sir to the fact of I to leave with a young woman for
who I do not feel a love pure. Never more I will take a young woman in lambreta.
Only my future woman. I was to the mass in the Church of the Order and
confessed myself with the Raymundo Priest who gave good advice to me. I am sad
with the year ticket that I made. Instead of being in the church and to
comungar for God to help me, not, instead of this I was the balls and strolls

Being seted, in Curitiba. It took the Dayse, the Sônia and the Vânia employee.
I attended the film "Clandestino"que Apartment showed the conjugal
problems to me in Italy and the world. I identified many of my feelings and the
R., in that film. Vi that the egoismo is the cause of the problems. The husband
does not want to leave of if feeling young. He wants to again feel the sensation
of a new love. Coitada E of the woman, or aguenta everything in silence or if
separates or paid in the same currency (what it it is not normal). At last, the
extra-marriage experiences are cercadaas of as many complications, lies,
hypocrisy and fingimento, that in the end is well better very better exactly
(the ideal) to be faithful. I kept the phrase of the wife in the film:
"One became so easy to trair the husband whom if it prefers to be
faithful". I bought a typewriter. My colleague of group, Captain Cacaes is
with a son in state of serious suspicion of a tumor in the head. The Sônia
already is being seated. He is comilona and already it attends the television.
The Dayse likes them films with livened up drawings and already it says
everything. It impresses itself with lion, macaquinho, mosquito, cockroach. She
likes them very dolls: Dawn, Sebastiana, Tonico, Felisbina, and mainly the
Luluzinha. When embarking for Curitiba all rolled up in toalhinhas took the
Dawn turns yellow and blue. It is with a very interesting genius. It wakes up
dreaming brabinha and angry. It is become annoyed toa. It cries and it cries
out (it must be a phase of the life). The Sônia is very boazinha and risonha.
The Dayse already knows to walk in the tricycle, it likes to jump and to give
capers, and to dance imitating what it sees in the television. To sleep to the
times apanha and the night costuma to come to our bed. The R. has slept fact
late vestidinhos and. It likes to attend novels of the TV Excelsior, canal 2,
mainly "To another face of Anita". I am very contented with the wife
who God gave to me. It likes all clean one. It likes to be always dressed well.
She is trabalhadeira and loving. My bigger desire is not to commit a asneira of
wanting to risk a temporary and dangerous pleasure with another woman who I
will not have known well, risking to lose a wife who gave to all its life for
me, for love. That God helps me to não.fazer so great ungratefulness. Despite
this everything, to the times they come me thoughts of that people go being old
and later she will not have exactly alternative. It is not gone to attract plus
nobody for impression not to be for money. E will be that I will not be sorry
not to have had adventures it are of the marriage? But I arrive at the conclusion
that best is to be faithful and a good husband. She is difficult but the family
who prays joined remains joined. DECEMBER OF 1964 15/12/64 - Today she knew
