In the brochure "Južnoprimorski borci", published by the committee of the Južnoprimorski odred of the IX. korpusa NOV and POJ at the municipal committee of the Zveza borcev NOV Sežana, we find a longer account of the "Komenska action", carried out by the Južnoprimorski odred on 2 February 1944 on Rovni or in Dovce between Komn and Rihemberk. It also includes an excerpt from the Vojaški vestnik of the IX. korpusa from 19. 2. 1944, where on the first page it reads: "The biggest blow to the occupier on the Yugoslav territories; units of the Južnoprimorski odred completely destroyed the German-Italian police column. [..] In this battle, five comrades gave their lives in the charge against the enemy, among them the brave commander of the platoon, comrade Slavko. […]

In the first platoon, the commander Slavko Krt from Hruševica and the machine gunner Henrik Markič from Bazare were killed, from the third platoon [..]"
