  1. Rick and the other sons and daughters of the American WW II heroes in Europe and Pacific theaters of war .... your fathers were actual heroes of that world ugly conflict .... and they were desperate to FINISH it ASAP and go back home !!!! Second time in history, the boys & girls from the American Army had to take care of the European front, to smash the German armies and finish that prolonged another war !!!! >> The war which started on the day of September 01st, 1939 @ 04:45 AM, with the ride of the german diving bombers called Stukas (Ju-87's) over the small Polish town of Wielun, and killing the majority of its people during the time sleeping in that early morning. Another place was shelled from battleship "Schleswig-Holstein" at the same time of 04:45 AM It was a small Polish military garrison of almost 200 soldiers on Westerplatte, which was located in the FREE city of Gdansk (Danzig). The most heroic defense against Germans it took place inside the free city of Gdansk, when german SS military units and city german Police force .... they attacked together, in the same early morning, the Polish Postal Headquarters Office. The basically military trained postal workers resist for 17 hours the furious attacks of the german artillery, machine guns, flame throwers, and SS soldiers, supported by three armored cars, etc. They gave up when Germans pumped gasoline into the basements of that strong building of the Postal Office and ignited it. First with a white flag, came out from the door a civilian director of the Polish Postal Outlet, and he was instantly shot by the rifle bullet from distance. Second, appeared with the white flag at the exit door his co-director, and he was instantly covered by fire from the german flame thrower !! The third appeared the woman with a small daughter .... and then the rest of the workers. To end this story from the beginning of the WW II, I can only tell you, that later Germans anonymously killed all of these Poles in a couple of weeks, near the city cemetery. Their bodies were found by coincidence 80 years later, during the construction of the modern building in Gdansk. AMEN. >> This is a link to Museum of that Polish Postal Outlet >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWB4r1htwIs
