Polish? My favorite apart from Lech is King Jan III Sobieski who showed his tuff killing muslim vampires at the Battle of Vienna
God Bless the Polish people...all except the Commie Polish that is.
Did the Poles get any reparations from the Krauts?
The Poles have had a difficult history; sometimes it’s better to forgive. My mother (100% first generation American) said to me after I had first read about Nazi atrocities against Poland (this was in the ‘70s): “you know, that was a long time ago and most of the people who did that are dead. Germans today had nothing to do with it, no point blaming them for it.” That’s a healthy way to deal with history, I think. Otherwise, hatred continues unchecked.
I speak German (ein bisschen); I read it much better than I speak it.
The Poles did get Breslau (Worclaw) and Danzig (Gdansk) among other cities after the borders lurched westward. And then they suffered another 45years under the USSR’s heel.
