Home page verse 'Go, passer-by and tell the world...' (Przechodniu, Powiedz Polsce, Żeśmy Polegli Wierni w Jej Służbie) was translated by Norman Davies, Rising '44: The Battle for Warsaw, from the monument commemorating fallen Polish soldiers at the Monte Cassino cemetery, Italy. The original version of the epitaph wrote Simonides of Ceos at the place of battle of Thermopylae (480 B.C.).

Home page photograph of Jerzy Sikorski 'Sixton' was taken in August 1944 by Wiesław Chrzanowski 'Wiesław' in the Warsaw's Old Town district.
