Related Link » International Holocaust Remembrance Day in Warsaw PolandMy Dad's boyhood home was at Mila 21 in Warsaw. He and my Mom (also a Warsaw native) survived the Holocaust (along with their then-toddler son). Mom and Dad both lived into their 80's, passing away in their retirement in Tampa, Florida.
“I'm in Warsaw Poland, and today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. In the frigid negative temperatures, I walked through the streets of Warsaw to honor the Jews who were murdered here by the Nazis. I stopped off at 18 Mila Street to remember Mordechai Anielewicz, and the ŻOB [Żydowska Organizacja Bojowa, Polish for the Jewish Combat Organization, which was instrumental in engineering the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising].” [emphasis added; [comment] inserted]
