You pointed out, "I just did my job like millions before me."

That is what I was trying to say to Snippy, I don't need thanks, or gratitude (though it warms my heart) just comradeship with good people and the hope that we can make a difference, one person at a time, and continue the fight onward to Victory. I won't see it in my day, I guess, and might even die in bed, which is the last thing I ever expected!!!

SAM, you and your dad remind me of the tough, gallant, proud Polish aristocratic tradition. I'll do one on the Polish decryption of Enigma, (found a new source in Gorlicky) and how this saved maybe a million American asses if you will do a good one on the battle of Warsaw. Those lads deserve to have their song sung as much as anyone's, it was as gallant as Thermopylae, though without such a good ending. Stalin to blame, as he so often was.

Thanks Iris7.

The Foxhole has covered the Warsaw Uprising in 1944 and the Invasion of Poland in 1939. I can look around and see what's available on the Battle of Warsaw in 1939.

If you want to cover Enigma it'd be an interesting read, especially if it doesn't give all the credit to the Brits. ;-)
