THE EAGLE OF THE EAST - Gene H Hogberg - July 1976

Gene H Hogberg

From the ashes of World War II, Poland has risen to become the world's tenth largest industrial power. Here is the story behind one nation's indomitable spirit. Out of the corner of my eye I could see that we were being watched. Dexter and I were sitting in the lobby of Warsaw's beautiful new Swedish-built Forum Hotel. We were checking out our camera gear and chatting somewhat nervously, as we waited for our tardy Orbis guide and driver to appear to take us to Oswiecim - Auschwitz - site of the notorious World War II concentration camp. (See page 36.) Finally our observer walked over and with a pleasant smile said, "I could tell from the way you were talking that you're Americans. Where are you fellows from? I'm from Detroit, myself, but I'm retired and I live here now." - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
