One of Tito's partisans?

No. Those were Marxists.

It was groups of civilian partisans from villages around St. Martin (today Martin) and down the railway to Turčianske (today Teplice) they started to band together during the famines of the 30s.

They were predominantly farmers and hunters responsible for feeding that area for 60 years prior to Warsaw Pact.

It led into true warfare with both sides after 1938.
