I am going to post daily in remembrance of Poles saving Jews. Something today that is overlooked, discredited, and often purposefully ignored. I think it’s vital they should be memorialized especially now and remember there are tens of thousands of heroic and martyred Poles

Poland was the first to fight, never surrendered or collaborated. The Polish Defense War of 1939 was a great national effort. Poland was attacked on two fronts, outnumbered, betrayed, yet always resisted and fought for their freedom at all costs.

Here are some of thoughts about the Polish people and why I have been sharing about their history for over a decade. I lived in Poland and know the Poles personally. It's also personal because I know their character and who they are as a people.
