The terrible death of Czeslawa Kwoka.

Reading This, Made Me So Upset A Beautiful Little Girl Subjected To A Monster That Decided That Anything Related To The Jewish Culture Was Obsolete How Minimal Was Hitlers Minset To Concur He Was To Be An Exercutioner To A Human Race.


Her name was Czeslawa Kwoka, and her crime was being Polish, Catholic, and 14 years old.  Her red triangle was for political prisoners, because of where she was born in Poland.  

After this photo was taken, she was killed in Auschwitz extermination camp on March 12, 1943 with a phenol injection in the heart.

Just before the execution, she was photographed by prisoner Wilhelm Brasse, who would later testify against the executioner of Czeslawa, a woman.  

Just before the photo, the executioner punched Czeslawa in the face, as the hematoma on her lip shows.

This is the face of a terrified little girl, who didn't even speak the language of her executioner.   She had lost her mother a few days before. 

But she dried her tears to look presentable for the photo.  They took her hair and her life, but they couldn’t take her dignity.

 RIGHTEOUS AMONG THE NATIONS:US Army Master Sergeant Roddie Edmond. Here is America's only soldier to ever receive Israel’s highest honor conferred on non-Jews who risked their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust.  77 years ago, facing the threat of immediate execution, he and his men displayed an act of courage and character that exemplifies what it means to take a stand against evil.

Perched atop the deck of a ship in the year 1910, a sailor shares a moment of companionship with the ship's cat and its tiny kitten. Throughout maritime history, ship's cats have been valued members of crews, providing both practical assistance and emotional support to sailors during their voyages. Beyond their role as cherished companions, these feline sailors played a crucial role in maintaining the ship's integrity and protecting its cargo. With their keen hunting instincts, ship's cats helped control the rodent population aboard, safeguarding vital supplies and equipment from damage. Their presence also brought a sense of comfort and camaraderie to sailors far from home, offering a brief respite from the rigors of life at sea. In this timeless scene, we glimpse the enduring bond between seafarers and their feline companions, a testament to the shared journeys and mutual reliance that defined life aboard the ship.

 The Terrible Story Of Mildred Harnack was beheaded on Hitler’s direct order.   Born in Milwaukee, she was 26 when she moved to Germany to pursue a PhD.  As an American grad student in Berlin, she saw Germany swiftly progress from democracy to fascist dictatorship.  She and her husband Arvid began holding secret meetings in their apartment.  She recruited working-class Germans into the resistance, helped Jews escape, plotted acts of sabotage, and collaborated in writing leaflets that denounced Hitler and called for revolution. "Mildred Harnack nicknamed their resistance group “the Circle.” The group was diverse: its members were Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, atheist.  They were factory workers and office workers, students and professors, journalists and artists. Over 40% were women. "The Gestapo arrested Mildred Harnack on Sept 7, 1942 and gave her group a name: the Rote Kapelle (Red Orchestra).  Postwar testimonies and notes smuggled out of a Berlin w...

Hans-Georg Henke - 16 year old German Flakhelfer crying after being captured by the US 9th Army in Germany on April 3, 1945. (Flakhelfer; anti-aircraft warfare helpers of 15 to 17 year old German students during World War II.)  According to the story that Henke maintained throughout his life, he was based in Stettin with a battery of 88mm guns.  As the Soviets advanced so the German forces were pushed back towards Rostock.  It was here where the Soviets finally overran their unit, that these photographs were taken. The alternative story is given by the American photojournalist John Florea.  He alleges that he took these photographs in Hessen, in the village of Hüttenberg-Rechtenbach, which is just north of Frankfurt am Main.  The area in which the photos of Hans-Georg were taken is incontrovertibly Hessen. John Florea is adamant that Hans-Georg is not sobbing because his world had crumbled but rather due to combat shock after being overrun by the American forces...

Siegfried 'Kongo' Müller, the Wehrmacht man who became a mercenary in the Congo... 36 years ago today in 1983, the former soldier of the Third Reich and officer of Mad Mike Hoare’s mercenary commando in the Congo, Siegfried “Kongo” Müller, died of stomach cancer in Boksburg, Johannesburg.  Though not as successful a mercenary as the likes of Hoare or Denard, Müller became a popular figure of some renown back home in both the Federal Republic of Germany and the GDR, the latter using him as the object of propaganda to depict West Germany as a neo-colonial state. (Müller pictured with traditional weaponry and wearing his Iron Cross).  Müller was born in 1920 in Crossen an der Oder, a city on the eastern frontier of Brandenburg and the Weimar Republic.  Though little is known of his childhood days growing up in the Weimar Republic except that at the age of eleven in 1931 he joined the youth branch of the Stahlhelm League, a militarist, monarchist and nationalist organization ...

On August 23, 1939, Germany and the Soviet Union sign a non-aggression pact, stunning the world, given their diametrically opposed ideologies.

On August 23, 1939, Germany and the Soviet Union sign a non-aggression pact, stunning the world, given their diametrically opposed ideologies. But the dictators were, despite appearances, both playing to their own political needs. After Nazi Germany’s invasion of Czechoslovakia, Britain had to decide to what extent it would intervene should Hitler continue German expansion. Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, at first indifferent to Hitler’s capture of the Sudetenland, the German-speaking area of Czechoslovakia, suddenly snapped to life when Poland became threatened. He made it plain that Britain would be obliged to come to the aid of Poland in the event of German invasion. But he wanted, and needed, an ally. The only power large enough to stop Hitler, and with a vested interest in doing so, was the Soviet Union. But Stalin was cool to Britain after its effort to create a political alliance with Britain and France against Germany had been rebuffed a year earlier. 9 Plus, Polan...

THE FILIPINO BOY WHO BECOME A WWII HERO AT 11 YEARS OLD.

THE FILIPINO BOY WHO BECOME A WWII HERO AT 11 YEARS OLD. The years following the Fall of Bataan in 1942 were among the darkest in Philippine history.  Filipino and American soldiers who fell into the hands of the Japanese suffered unspeakable torture, imprisonment, and execution.  You’d be considered extremely lucky if you made it out alive. James Carrington was one of the lucky few. His heroic escape from the notorious Bilibid Prison–which the Japanese thought to be escape-proof–was one for the books.  If it weren’t for this successful escape, Carrington would have been dead before he could even reach his full potential.  But as fate would have it, the young American soldier cheated death and lived on to become part of Luzon’s formidable guerrilla forces Carrington, as a matter of fact, would go down in Philippine history as the “Cajun guerrilla”–the fearsome commandant who used a pair of machine guns and led several of his men in a battle against the advancing Japa...
