About The Website

The idea behind this website arose from a project in my English class actually, which entails recreating a previous English paper in the form of a different media piece. However, I soon realized that I didn't want this to just be some assignment, I am far too passionate about this topic to let the 14 day free trial be the end of this site. I am now committed to keeping this website public, and will update the site whenever possible. The mainstream media provides no insight into this topic whatsoever, but the people of the world deserve to learn of the Polish 1st Armoured Division's immense bravery. I intend to keep updating this site in any way I can, I intend to keep this site public until my bank account is empty, and I intend to form a non-profit organization to raise awareness for this crucial piece of history. If one day there is at least a single student who cites this website in a research paper, I will have succeeded in my goal.
