Describes the development of partisan units in Lithuania. By the auutumn of 1942, partisan warfare was a mass movement that could include members 'regardless of backgound, social profile, nationality, training or skills'. Jews who fled Vilnius and Kaunas sometimes formed a majority. Of 3910 Sovist partisans in Lithuania, 676 were Jewish.
