From this bullet scarred crypt window in central Prague, the Czech SOE agents who had assassinated Nazi General Reinhard Heydrich in Operation Anthropoid, fired their last shots. Tracked down and surrounded, they held off several hundred SS until finally overcome. Brave men. #WW2

If you have ever wondered why artillery shells were so devastating during #WW1, look no further than this. All this 'shrapnel' came from ONE shell. Imagine that screaming about a battlefield glowing red-hot at a few hundred miles an hour. Awful.

This is David Berger, he was 19 years old when he was murdered by the Nazis in Vilnius in 1941. In a last letter to his girlfriend he said: ‘I would want there to be somebody who would remember that someone named D. Berger had once lived.’ We remember you, David.
