The Civil War and the postwar period were key events that marked the existence of millions of people. In this article, we collect the life experience of two of them, as an example of what those millions experienced. The Buitrago, Victoriano and Amor, were two CNT militants who fought for their ideals and who, with the defeat of 1939, wanted to be erased. The objective is the reconstruction and analysis of two life stories crossed by the civil war and Franco’s detention centers as a sample of the succession of events experienced by thousands of people who fought in the Republican rearguard in those years.
