This resistance group was literally 'underground' based in a 1000 km. network of caves outside Odessa. The memorial, to those who died in the struggle,is in the caves. As the leaders of the group were Chekists (KGB) these caves were venerated during the Soviet period. However the recently published 'Mitrokhin Archives' demonstrate that the tale was not as heroic as was reported.
