Gen Scibor-Rylski died at 101

He was a hero of Warsaw's uprising, its 74 anniversary was just celebrated. He participated in the celebration this year... and even talked. The new populistic government was trying to investigate him when he was 99 just because he was so known and popular, but the investigation was stopped since there was not a point and he was too old to go through this shameful event.



Here is an interview with him (in Polish) but also some pictures and film from the Warsaw uprising:

Pieter, thank you for the videos of general. I am always puzzled why some Polish military and political figures are able to leave so long. I guess, they don't drink and they keep themselves occupied. Some of Polish presidents in disspora lived also over 100 years old
