What courage -- what a sacrifice.

In September 1940, Pilecki didn't know exactly what was going on in Auschwitz, but he knew someone had to find out. He would spend two and a half years in the prison camp, smuggling out word of the methods of execution and interrogation. He would eventually escape and author the first intelligence report on the camp.

More people should know about this man.

Thank you for posting this and bringing it to my attention. He had to be one of the bravest ever, along with Jan Karski.
