Our today’s interviewee:
Eugeniusz Sowa (born in 1929), the eldest of five children of Franciszka and Józef Sowa, farmers from Wierzchowisko near Częstochowa. He witnessed the death of his parents at the hands of the Germans on 1 September 1943 for hiding Jews. The siblings were arrested by the Gestapo and sent to the Third Reich for forced labor. They ended up in the village of Golau (now Gola Grodkowska, Opole Voivodeship, Poland), where Eugeniusz worked as a cart driver at an estate run by an inspector, who was a German war-disabled person. The siblings were separated. Eugeniusz had contact with his two younger brothers, but their two sisters were taken away by the Germans. The children survived the war. Eugeniusz Sowa witnessed the Red Army soldiers enter the Polish territories and rape Polish women. The Sowa siblings managed to return to Częstochowa by bribing the Red Army soldiers with spirit.
Eugeniusz Sowa's parents, Franciszka and Józef Sowa, were commemorated by the Pilecki Institute as part of the "Called by name" project on 16 June 2020. Eugeniusz Sowa was the guest of honor during the event.

❤️ napisy są, super! W sowieckiej armii nierzadko były całe grupy wypuszczonych na wolność przestępców. Takie świadectwa łamią serce, ale słyszałam też inne historie o sowietach, pozytywne, to czasem byli młodzi chłopcy oderwani od rodziny, którzy też mieli matki, żony. A jednak w Polsce pozostało po Sowietach tragiczne wspomnienie, żywe do dzisiaj niestety. A zresztą, jakie musiało być wtedy społeczeństwo rosyjskie, po caracie, bolszewikach, przy Stalinie. Ludzie z zasadami nierzadko byli już wtedy w łagrach. A i na samych żołnierzy, którzy uciekli z niewoli niemieckiej czekała zsyłka, dla 'niemieckich szpiegów'. Świadectwo p. Eugeniusza jest bardzo ważne, bo na Zachodzie nikt nie ma pojęcia co to znaczy okupacja sowiecka, komunizm.

@@GARRY3754 read some history mate.. search online and learn who burned down the whole villages and grain depots on the way of invading nazi army into russia then. It was a tactic utilized by communists to starve off the german army in harsh Siberian winters and turn their battalions into frozen mummies without utilizing much military resources. But this strategy harmed their own population more than the germans.. millions of russians perished through communist induced famine. The fact remains that the Soviet Union was not a national Russian government, and the Soviet Army was not a national Russian defense organization. Soviets were the occupiers of russia .. so for them russians were expandable commodities while using this scorched earth policy. www.quora.com/Why-did-the-Soviet-Army-burn-down-their-own-fields-and-villages

@@redtobertshateshandles walesa was a simple peasant who was promoted by the security service to do the inside job in organisation called Solidarnosc. There is a documentary film about it and a book by a historian from IPN (institutions of national memory). The Solidarnosc organisation was a thorn in the side of the communists, that is why an agents were installed there. Despite the fact that there were other true activists who should have been in power, the agents and communist services managed to promote Walesa as the main leader. With the support of other agents and eavesdropping he brought discord and chaos among the members of the anti-communist organisation. In addition, he had a strangely strong influence on the negotiations with the communist regime. Before you comment like "This gets to the heart of Polish problems, infighting and insanity" try to read, educate yourself what was a reality of live in communist regime. I suggest you to start with a 1772-1795 to know more about sources of different mentality among one nation. Regards

Generations of men and boys were forced to watch their sisters, mothers and grandmothers be raped. Lots of men and women were broken, and then communism worked to ruined children. I grew up with this family history. My friends here in America just didn't understand.
