Kraków was meant to share the fate of Warsaw (so mass uprising and demolition), but at the very last moment the chief of the Cracovian AK unit decided not to fight, because there was no real chance of winning. It's a very sensitive topic as some Poles think of that as a brave move, some see this is a cowardice.
Battle for Poland - Animated |Countryballs| (1939-40) I don't expect anything to happen, but it would be nice if you could see this work, which always takes your breath away and even brings tears to your eyes. . .at least in my opinion
Many people will say Poles are racist because of not wanting illegal migrants. When you look throughout our history, we had a lot of different minorities. Tadeusz Kościuszko was the 1st white person to actually ask American president to forbid slavery in USA - its a great story I would recommend to learn about Tadeusz. We helped free Haiti from slavery as we rebeled against Napoleon. We helped jews in WW2 even though it ment to be killed most of the time. We never took land by force making them our colonies as other EU countries (we took Madagaskar without fight but returned later on). Actually from this movie you can learn we were slaves not even a 100 years ago, yet we do not brag about it so most of the people think that modern slavery was mostly in USA enforced on black people. When your stabbed in your back as a country so many times by so called friends, you no longer have a shoulder to cry on. That's why we do not complain, and we do not show much emotions until we get to know someone better.
Its incredible how many black americans are going nuts about their slave history, while none of them experienced it, while survivors of gulags and nazi camps in Poland still live to this day. You can go to hospitals and see privilaged queues for those survivors, and yet so many people believe racism and slavery towards white people simply never existed.
Some poeple say that, but we, Poles, should stop listening to them. We are not racist, we have never been, we just require basic level of respect to our traditions in our country. That's all.
@@PrimaRipper Yup, if you act as decent human person and show respect you will get respect in return, doesn't really matter how you look like, or where are you from. :p
No ta, walczymy.. nie trzeba byłoby walczyć gdyby ten z natury głupi naród uczył się nie błędach, ale nieeee, my wolimy epicko umierać i poświęcać się dla zajebistych historyjek i opowieści.

Otóż prawda, jednoczymy się w kryzysie, ale gdyby pomyśleć i zjednoczyć się wcześniej to żadnego kryzysu by nie było, mówię tu o wiecznej wojnie PiS/Po, dwie partie rozwalające ten kraj od wielu lat, wybierane za każdym razem, bo "przecież nie ma innej opcji, trzeba wybrać gorsze zło". Gdyby powstańcy warszawscy albo ktokolwiek inny walczący o ten kraj podczas II wś zobaczył jak to teraz wygląda, to zakładam, że pożałowałby swojego poświęcenia. A teraz cieszmy się naszą "wolnością" i "niezależnością" od innych krajów (UE, czyt. Niemcy) 😃

Poland is a wonderful country, Poles are loyal and devoted, always! Never want us as your enemy, only as your friend. When in Poland, be sure to visit the museum in Oświęcim to see with your own eyes what the Germans did to us during World War II -> you will cry a long time. We remember! We are proud to be Poles! Best regards
Every Polish person has an ancestor who was killed, imprisoned or tortured in the war. But not every story is absolutely horrible. My grandma was born during the war, in 1941. She was a very cute and beautiful baby and there was this German soldier who visited the family regularly and he was so in love with that baby. Maybe she reminded him of his own daughter, I don't know. But every time he visited he brought a gift for my grandma, an orange or some chocolate or candies. My grandpa, though, was almost killed for literally no reason. He was 7 or 8 at that time and he was walking down the road, to a store, I think, when he saw two German officers coming towards him with a large dog on a leash. He crossed the road to the other side, to avoid them but they did the same, on purpose, apparently. When they were close to my grandpa, they unleashed the dog and told the dog to attack the boy. Then they watched while their dog was mauling that little boy who was screaming for help. But no one came. Then they called the dog off and left my grandpa on the road. He literally crawled back home. He couldn't get out of bed for weeks (no hospital or painkillers, of course) but he recovered eventually. This is the kind of people most N*zis were, they did things like that for fun. I wondered how it was possible for a human being to behave like that. I get one psychopath, or a few, but so many people in the whole nation? And I figured it was due to dehumanization. Jews, Poles weren't humans in their eyes, and "deserved" everything that was done to them. That's why I'm so concerned with the political division in the world. I constantly hear that dehumanizing rhetoric, I can see the hatred, so many people convinced that the other side is the embodiment of absolute evil. Dehumanization is the most dangerous weapon in a political battle, because when we stop seeing humanity in another human being, there's nothing to stop us from hurting them when it could benefit us. Except law, of course, but sometimes it isn't enough. And laws do change.

As a Pole, I thank you for telling and promoting the historical truth about my ancestors. Previously, many people did not even know where Poland was, and those who did, considered us to be worse people, only because we were poor and technologically backward. Only recently have more and more people learned the truth about what our ancestors went through. In 2015, I came to England, I was afraid to admit that I was Polish because I was treated badly by the English... and now I feel proud when more and more foreign people praise my Poland and want to move here permanently. Thank you.

Thank you for the honesty of your comments. I appreciate your contribution to explain Poland to other English speaking audience. With all my best wishes
@@enzormma Yeah, Warsaw is beautiful when it comes to architecture, but different from really old cities, as it was all destroyed in the war, so the "old town" is rebuilt, but it's still great. In a way, it's awesome that it differs so much from Cracow or other bigger cities. Each city has its own vibe and architecture and is worth visiting.
Second part please! "The Unconquered: Trying Times". It is actually about the time between World Wars and how Poland was uniting a country after 123 years of subjugation.
Podobno 85% Warszawy zostało zburzone. Na 24 500 budynków 17 500 bezpowrotnie. 😥😕 W samym rynku Warszawy zachowały się 3 czy 4 kamienice - tylko dlatego, że Niemcy nie zdążyli ich zniszczyć...
The actual borders of Poland were established in 1945 at the Poczdamie and Jałcie conferences. The shape of the post-war borders was decided by the three victorious powers: the United States, the Soviet Union and Great Britain. Poland could not decide on the shape of its post-war borders.
The Recovered Territories were leased to Poland until a peace treaty was signed between Poland and Germany, and Germany did not sign any peace treaty with any Ally.

About the Krakow city. It's survived mostly because one of Hitler's pupil Hans Frank who was Krakow governor he was very cruel to poles but he loved antiques and history and he believed that after the second WW this city will be his.
Thx for what You say about Polish "resitance", becouse of our history we unite against comon enemy!!! i feell the same way, greetings from Poland mate !!!!
My name is Marcin I am 45 years old and I live in Dublin from last 20 years. I am simply man ♂️ , i work as a security guard in Dublin. I like history I like read. I left my hometown Siedlce right after college in August 2004. I like ireland 😊 i like irish tradition, great kitchen.... cottage pie..... Hm ..... delicious..... I like Irish ghosts 👻 stories.... :))) similar to Ireland we have plenty of ghost 👻 stories in Poland..... Anyway my heart is Polish ❤ i love my country Poland but i know we good people and bad people like everywhere.... We have plenty of alcoholics..... drug's.... car 🚗 crashes.... crazy football ⚽ hooligans.... , so Poland ...... good and bad things..... Some people are diabetics....big amount of diabetics.. over 2 millions of people has sugar to high ..... Sugar is killing.... Sorry... Big amiunt of susaiders....5.000 per year..... Sorry..... I love my country, but we have good and bad.... All .... Polish history is difficult and long , Poland is over 1.000 years old. 966 Poland started as a country. We had a good kings and bad 👑 king's..... First dynasty of King's called Piast Dynasty was great , brave , smart , intelligent, brutal..... warrior's.... First prince of Poland was man ♂️ called Mieszko.... He was great , brutal , smart..... But ..... Nobody really knows who he was.... Professional historians have a lot of questions.... There is a big chance that he was a Viking. A few proves..... All his 3 daughters got married with vikings... All of them had a Vikings name's.... Vikings never attacked Poland and they was so close.... Baltic sea ⛵ is a small Sea ⛵...... ? Vikings never attacked.... Why ? Our Prince Mieszko was hiring Vikings in his army , we know that. There is only one letter ✉️ from his time called Dagome Judex.... Dago it was a viking name..... So all this little proves.... He was in close connection with vikings or.....simply.... He was a Viking himself..... His son Boleslaw was a first King 👑 of Poland in 1025.
i've seen the unconquered like 7 or 8 times already and i cry every single time. i don't know how or why it happens to me but it does. maybe i'm more patriotic than i thought
'No greater Ally' written by Kenneth K. Koskodan - interesting book about how Poles split all over the world were in fact... 4th fighting army in WW2 despite having no official country and no official army... Today we look at Poland and sometimes people make jokes about this country (that we are poor, not well developed compared to Ger/USA etc) - before you do, please take into consideration 2 facts - 1. our War did not end in 1949 but in 1989 once communism collapsed (mostly due to Poles labour force strikes), we are in fact quite 'young'country. 2- because our western allies sold us into USSR 'protection' we were not part of Marshall plan of rebuilding Europe. What we have now we have achieved solely since 1989, while other countries had time to rebuild since 1949 + financial aid from west. Also our connection with USSR made west reluctant to make any deals with Poland even after 89 and it took many years to get us into EU. Poles are (official statistics) one of the hardest working nations in the world. Despite all of above, many people here, without understanding of geopolitical situation of the history and without full understanding of above 2 points complain that Poland, compared to western world is a village without real opportunities, but per statistics we are one of the safest places to live in the world (s3x assaults, murderers etc). Kocham Was Polacy, jesteście niesamowici i nieugięci!
Zginęło nas znacznie wiecej, trzeba doliczyć jeszcze Polaków którzy zginęli poza bezpośrednimi granicami kraju, jak i później na skutek tejże wojny !!. Pozatym Polacy Żydzi powinni być zaliczani do ofiar po naszej stronie, nie żydowskiej !.
@@JanKowalski-cq6sg W mojej liczbie sa wszyscy, polegli katolicy i zydzi, sybiracy itp. Po wojnie w kraju zywych nas zostalo 22-23 mln. Jak najbardziej zaliczam zydow jako naszych, wyroznienie liczby zmarlych polskich zydow ma na celu pokazanie ze ponad 50% ofiar holocaustu to nasi. Pozdrawiam
Thank you very much for sharing your wisdom and knowledge of Poland. And you are much more objective about that than we as Poles are for an obvious reason
I recommend you watch two videos: ,,Most popular Polish song from each year (backed on YT views) [1976-2023]'' by Polish Singers Chart And ,,Polish Rock Bands be like:" by Serce Europy I think both represent Polish music history and are quite entertaining to watch.
A to wszystko co cierpimy jest efektem tego że Polacy są potomkami syna Noego, czyli Jafeta. Miejsce które wyznaczył nam Pan Jezus, jest miejscem które będziemy bronić ! Przyjdzie jednak taki czas , kiedy Pan Jezus położy wszystkich nieprzyjaciół naszych ! Naszego narodu nie można pokonać, bo nie można pokonać kogoś kto wyznaczył nam tam miejsce! Któregoś dnia, szatan przegra i zatryumfuje pokój!
Referring to the Warsaw Uprising. The insurgents knew they would probably lose the uprising, but they were already so pissed off at the Germans for being beaten to death by them for so many years that they often started the uprising with the sole thought of feeling a moment of freedom... "That's worth fighting for" Pozdrawiam
I wrote on your channel before and I have to say it once again. You can not learn about Poland's history from YT videos. The above video highlights many very good points but it doesn't explain the context and connections between them (there's no depth). Therefore your knowledge of Poland's history will be only very superficial because you won't understand the context. The best source of knowledge are history books or perhaps even wikipedia because they do explain the context. For example in the video you see an image of a fighter pilot but you do not understand why and where he is and what special significance to Poland's history he has. I will give you some homework to do. Read the biography of the Polish-American US Air Force fighter pilot ace Gabby Gabreski (on wikipedia to make it easy). From his bio make the connection to Poland's IIWW fighter pilots, what they did, and what was their significance.
I highly recommend youtube video "How Poland was wiped off the map - THE PARTITIONS OF POLAND". It has fantastic animations and explains partitions in a more detailed manner then most of the yt videos.
You have to watch the channel "Historia bez cenzury" and the film "Polacy - zajebisty naród!" Generally, the films from this channel are about Polish history and not only, kept in great humor and have many interesting facts. I recommend and greet you.
Greetings from Poland. Everything you said about us is true. For a Pole, freedom is the most important thing. Interesting fact - during the 1000 years of the existence of the Polish state, the Polish army has defeated the Russian army many times. In the history of the world, only the Poles have conquered Moscow and ruled Russia, and the Polish king had the title of "Tsar of Russia". Neither Napoleon nor Hitler did this.
This is an animation. But it presents Our History where Poland was under partition for 120 years. It wasn't even on world maps. I am glad that someone is interested in the history of a small but proud country. Thank you and best regards.
Krakow was saved in fact by Armia Krajowa - Home Army 🇵🇱 They managed to disarm explosives left by nazi Germans under the city when they fled before the soviet red army approached the citi . Krakow was to be blown up , so that its most precious treasures which are also the world's heritage would have been lost forever...
Hi, I am Polish and have been living in Oslo for many years. I have many friends from China and Vietnam and it is funny that despite so many cultural differences we get along great. What is also interesting is that you understand or know the history of Poland better than many nations in Western Europe. P.S. from what I remember you have Chinese roots and China and Poland have always had very good relations. I wonder what is the reason for these good relations? Maybe it is pride, honor and respect for others which is part of Polish and Chinese culture.
My grandmother was little when her father was taken prisoner. In the letter they received from him, he wrote that they had no food and had to drink their own urine to survive. She said she used to go to the meadow and look at the sky, hoping to see him again someday. He never came home...
@@be_ata I rewatched it: yes, there are 😂 they are mostly inaccuracies, but still. One example: According to the video poles received 17 Nobel PEACE prizes.

Thank you for the honesty of your comments. I appreciate your contribution to explain Poland to other English speaking audience. With all my best wishes
Judging based on old photos or even films, Warsaw had monumental roman style buildings, so it would be similar to Vienna or maybe Paris, or Budapest.
I can’t wait to visit Warsaw someday. Another reason to visit, to enjoy the beautiful architecture.
@@enzormma Yeah, Warsaw is beautiful when it comes to architecture, but different from really old cities, as it was all destroyed in the war, so the "old town" is rebuilt, but it's still great. In a way, it's awesome that it differs so much from Cracow or other bigger cities. Each city has its own vibe and architecture and is worth visiting.
Second part please! "The Unconquered: Trying Times". It is actually about the time between World Wars and how Poland was uniting a country after 123 years of subjugation.
@WheresWes Definitely you should watch them! :)
Warsaw was almost one hundred percent destroyed after the war
Podobno 85% Warszawy zostało zburzone. Na 24 500 budynków 17 500 bezpowrotnie. 😥😕 W samym rynku Warszawy zachowały się 3 czy 4 kamienice - tylko dlatego, że Niemcy nie zdążyli ich zniszczyć...

You should check the story of Corporal Wojtek, if You didn't.
I would love him to react to this story ❤
You should watch it in English with Sean Bean narration :)
Boromir, sounds so slavic :)
i really love my country because its my blood and where i was born
The actual borders of Poland were established in 1945 at the Poczdamie and Jałcie conferences. The shape of the post-war borders was decided by the three victorious powers: the United States, the Soviet Union and Great Britain. Poland could not decide on the shape of its post-war borders.
The Recovered Territories were leased to Poland until a peace treaty was signed between Poland and Germany, and Germany did not sign any peace treaty with any Ally.

About the Krakow city. It's survived mostly because one of Hitler's pupil Hans Frank who was Krakow governor he was very cruel to poles but he loved antiques and history and he believed that after the second WW this city will be his.
Chwała Bohaterom.
you are very observer and analyzer - smart remarks
Polska ❣️🇵🇱♥️
polityka nas dzieli... Lecz Polacy zawsze będą zjednoczeni!!! Chwała Wielkiej Polsce!!! !!!PW!!! Chwałą Wielskiej Polsce!!! Dumny Naród!!!
Thx for what You say about Polish "resitance", becouse of our history we unite against comon enemy!!! i feell the same way, greetings from Poland mate !!!!
My name is Marcin I am 45 years old and I live in Dublin from last 20 years. I am simply man ♂️ , i work as a security guard in Dublin. I like history I like read. I left my hometown Siedlce right after college in August 2004. I like ireland 😊 i like irish tradition, great kitchen.... cottage pie..... Hm ..... delicious..... I like Irish ghosts 👻 stories.... :))) similar to Ireland we have plenty of ghost 👻 stories in Poland..... Anyway my heart is Polish ❤ i love my country Poland but i know we good people and bad people like everywhere.... We have plenty of alcoholics..... drug's.... car 🚗 crashes.... crazy football ⚽ hooligans.... , so Poland ...... good and bad things..... Some people are diabetics....big amount of diabetics.. over 2 millions of people has sugar to high ..... Sugar is killing.... Sorry... Big amiunt of susaiders....5.000 per year..... Sorry..... I love my country, but we have good and bad.... All .... Polish history is difficult and long , Poland is over 1.000 years old. 966 Poland started as a country. We had a good kings and bad 👑 king's..... First dynasty of King's called Piast Dynasty was great , brave , smart , intelligent, brutal..... warrior's.... First prince of Poland was man ♂️ called Mieszko.... He was great , brutal , smart..... But ..... Nobody really knows who he was.... Professional historians have a lot of questions.... There is a big chance that he was a Viking. A few proves..... All his 3 daughters got married with vikings... All of them had a Vikings name's.... Vikings never attacked Poland and they was so close.... Baltic sea ⛵ is a small Sea ⛵...... ? Vikings never attacked.... Why ? Our Prince Mieszko was hiring Vikings in his army , we know that. There is only one letter ✉️ from his time called Dagome Judex.... Dago it was a viking name..... So all this little proves.... He was in close connection with vikings or.....simply.... He was a Viking himself..... His son Boleslaw was a first King 👑 of Poland in 1025.
what? no Sean Bean voice ?
i've seen the unconquered like 7 or 8 times already and i cry every single time. i don't know how or why it happens to me but it does. maybe i'm more patriotic than i thought
Dzięki za przypomnienie tego filmu
'No greater Ally' written by Kenneth K. Koskodan - interesting book about how Poles split all over the world were in fact... 4th fighting army in WW2 despite having no official country and no official army...
Today we look at Poland and sometimes people make jokes about this country (that we are poor, not well developed compared to Ger/USA etc) - before you do, please take into consideration 2 facts - 1. our War did not end in 1949 but in 1989 once communism collapsed (mostly due to Poles labour force strikes), we are in fact quite 'young'country. 2- because our western allies sold us into USSR 'protection' we were not part of Marshall plan of rebuilding Europe. What we have now we have achieved solely since 1989, while other countries had time to rebuild since 1949 + financial aid from west. Also our connection with USSR made west reluctant to make any deals with Poland even after 89 and it took many years to get us into EU. Poles are (official statistics) one of the hardest working nations in the world.
Despite all of above, many people here, without understanding of geopolitical situation of the history and without full understanding of above 2 points complain that Poland, compared to western world is a village without real opportunities, but per statistics we are one of the safest places to live in the world (s3x assaults, murderers etc).
Kocham Was Polacy, jesteście niesamowici i nieugięci!
there was 35 M ppl pre ww2 and 23M after
Zginęło nas znacznie wiecej, trzeba doliczyć jeszcze Polaków którzy zginęli poza bezpośrednimi granicami kraju, jak i później na skutek tejże wojny !!.
Pozatym Polacy Żydzi powinni być zaliczani do ofiar po naszej stronie, nie żydowskiej !.
@@JanKowalski-cq6sg W mojej liczbie sa wszyscy, polegli katolicy i zydzi, sybiracy itp. Po wojnie w kraju zywych nas zostalo 22-23 mln. Jak najbardziej zaliczam zydow jako naszych, wyroznienie liczby zmarlych polskich zydow ma na celu pokazanie ze ponad 50% ofiar holocaustu to nasi. Pozdrawiam
I watched your videos about Poland when you came here and I noticed that the longer you are here the more you like it 😁
Pomieszka u nas to szybko mu się znudzi b
Thank you very much for sharing your wisdom and knowledge of Poland. And you are much more objective about that than we as Poles are for an obvious reason
I recommend you watch two videos:
,,Most popular Polish song from each year (backed on YT views) [1976-2023]'' by Polish Singers Chart
And
,,Polish Rock Bands be like:" by Serce Europy
I think both represent Polish music history and are quite entertaining to watch.
6:00 it was destroyied but we rebuild that (sory for bad english)
A to wszystko co cierpimy jest efektem tego że Polacy są potomkami syna Noego, czyli Jafeta. Miejsce które wyznaczył nam Pan Jezus, jest miejscem które będziemy bronić ! Przyjdzie jednak taki czas , kiedy Pan Jezus położy wszystkich nieprzyjaciół naszych ! Naszego narodu nie można pokonać, bo nie można pokonać kogoś kto wyznaczył nam tam miejsce! Któregoś dnia, szatan przegra i zatryumfuje pokój!
fajnie że ktoś poza granicy się tym interesuje
Enemies tried to shatter our spirit but we became the sharpest where we were broken.
We are Poles and we remember the cost of peace.
Referring to the Warsaw Uprising. The insurgents knew they would probably lose the uprising, but they were already so pissed off at the Germans for being beaten to death by them for so many years that they often started the uprising with the sole thought of feeling a moment of freedom... "That's worth fighting for"
Pozdrawiam
Your are very good polish ambassador I like your way of thinking sharp and on point.
I wrote on your channel before and I have to say it once again. You can not learn about Poland's history from YT videos. The above video highlights many very good points but it doesn't explain the context and connections between them (there's no depth). Therefore your knowledge of Poland's history will be only very superficial because you won't understand the context. The best source of knowledge are history books or perhaps even wikipedia because they do explain the context. For example in the video you see an image of a fighter pilot but you do not understand why and where he is and what special significance to Poland's history he has.
I will give you some homework to do. Read the biography of the Polish-American US Air Force fighter pilot ace Gabby Gabreski (on wikipedia to make it easy). From his bio make the connection to Poland's IIWW fighter pilots, what they did, and what was their significance.
I highly recommend youtube video "How Poland was wiped off the map - THE PARTITIONS OF POLAND". It has fantastic animations and explains partitions in a more detailed manner then most of the yt videos.
Regards from Krakow.
3:14 thank you
Never again! Stay strong brave Poland!
We always fight for freedom 🇵🇱
dzienkuje za ten film i wyjasinienie
Thank you and welcom to Pald ✌
I live on UK but I'm proud to be polish ❤
Świat nas się nie wstydzi, tylko boi.

You have to watch the channel "Historia bez cenzury" and the film "Polacy - zajebisty naród!" Generally, the films from this channel are about Polish history and not only, kept in great humor and have many interesting facts. I recommend and greet you.
I'm from Poznań.
I didn't know that You living in Roland.
I really appreciate your reaction ❤
My grandfathers died fighting in ww2, this was not a game... :(
Hey I’m from Poland 🇵🇱
the lector guy is the same for the Witcher 3 opening in Polish. for me i feel like crying, but i am glad you enjoy our history
Yes can confirm my grand father was fighting monte casino and survives it he told us how bad it was .
Im a proud polish girl😘
i have respect for you noticing the country of Poland
I AM from Poland
Greetings from Poland. Everything you said about us is true. For a Pole, freedom is the most important thing.
Interesting fact - during the 1000 years of the existence of the Polish state, the Polish army has defeated the Russian army many times. In the history of the world, only the Poles have conquered Moscow and ruled Russia, and the Polish king had the title of "Tsar of Russia". Neither Napoleon nor Hitler did this.
I am Polish and I am very proud of our history however I am also sick of wars during over 1000 years. No more wars! We want just live in peace.
I like my country being noticed
It's a bit of a shame that you haven't watched the English version because it would hit you much harder thanks to Sean Bean's narration.
This is an animation. But it presents Our History where Poland was under partition for 120 years. It wasn't even on world maps. I am glad that someone is interested in the history of a small but proud country. Thank you and best regards.
Chwała bohaterom! ❤
Krakow was saved in fact by Armia Krajowa - Home Army 🇵🇱 They managed to disarm explosives left by nazi Germans under the city when they fled before the soviet red army approached the citi . Krakow was to be blown up , so that its most precious treasures which are also the world's heritage would have been lost forever...
Hi, I am Polish and have been living in Oslo for many years. I have many friends from China and Vietnam and it is funny that despite so many cultural differences we get along great. What is also interesting is that you understand or know the history of Poland better than many nations in Western Europe. P.S. from what I remember you have Chinese roots and China and Poland have always had very good relations. I wonder what is the reason for these good relations? Maybe it is pride, honor and respect for others which is part of Polish and Chinese culture.
My grandmother was little when her father was taken prisoner. In the letter they received from him, he wrote that they had no food and had to drink their own urine to survive. She said she used to go to the meadow and look at the sky, hoping to see him again someday. He never came home...
