According to records, the Halifax JP-276A took off on its final flight with a crew of five Canadians and two Britons from the Italian city of Brindisi around 8 p.m. on Aug. 4, 1944. Canadian pilot Capt. A.R. Blynn was leading the mission to drop supplies of weapons and ammunition to the Polish underground as the Warsaw ghetto uprising raged.

Sigh!

Monika Mscislowska looks like a Polish name.

So one could expect, that a Polish journalist will be able to to distinguish beetwen Warsaw Ghetto uprising in 1943 and Warsaw uprising in 1944.

I noticed that too. I can understand Americans getting the two confused, but a native Pole?

Thank you. I hope you do a follow up on how she went in and stayed hidden from view - - if they find out.

Salute!

Grrr. Shame on the journalist whatever nationality she is. As a newsperson reporting on this story she should have done her homework and learned the difference.

Thanks for the story lizol. I wish the plane would have made it with their supplies. :-(
