Don't forget Taduez Kosciusko, Washington's engineer, and the man who built the fortifications at West Point!

You're right. Thanks for reminding me.
I remember reading about him in college, but for the life of me could not remember his name.
Thomas Jefferson called him "The purest son of liberty."

Wonderful pictures. Thanks.
I would wish "Sto Lat" to Zenon Jankowski, but at age 101, he already knows how to do that. So I just wish God's continued blessings on this surviving representative of a heroic generation. I remember reading an account of a Polish priest, carrying only a crucifix, leading a charge against the (momentarily) advancing Red Army.

That priest was Fr. Skorupko.
You can see him, and that moment you were referring to on the picture posted in post #2.
