I want the names of who did it. Imagine an article about Nazi Germany which did not have the names of those who committed the crimes.

JMJ333, may you be blessed for reminding us of all the Holy Martyrs, and my eternal thanks to you for all that you do to lead us in prayer, whether it is the Rosary, the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, or here devotion to Our Lady of Czestachowa. You, Lady In Blue, Salvation, and dear nickcarraway do so much on FreeRepublic that inspires me and blesses me.

Thanks for that beautiful post. My dad saw his country overrun by Nazis and communists in turn and half of his family wiped out. Unfortunately, he died before the wall came down.
