If You Think Things Make No Sense, Just Think About Witold Pilecki, A Polish Intelligence Agent Who Infiltrated

If you think things make no sense, just think about Witold Pilecki, a Polish intelligence agent who infiltrated Auschwitz in 1941, escaped in 1943, and whose report on what was happening in the camp was dismissed by Allied Forces as unbelievable.

Witold Pilecki a Polish resistance fighter against the NS regime during WW2. ➡️In collaboration with @bimboliquido.illustrations. He drew the lineart and most of the shading and I did the coloring and background 😉 🔥Please check out his profile!🔥 Now the story behind the Polish hero in short: During NS German occupation of Poland he deliberately went into the concentration camp in Auschwitz to organize the resistance from within. He managed to survive through collaboration with other inmates. 1943 he escaped and told the public what was going on inside these camps. No one believed him at first, because it sounded too horrible to be true. After WW2 ended Poland got occupied again this time by the Sowjets. In 1948 his life ended tragically. He got sentenced to death in 1948 for espionage. 🎶 There’s a song by the awesome band Sabaton about him called “Inmate 4859"😉 🔹 ❗Support me on ko-fi/ Redbubble etc. ➡️Link in bio: campsite.bio/silentrebel93 🔸Commissions open🔓DM 🔹 🔹 🔹 🔹 #witoldpilecki #warhero #polishhero #artcollaboration #artcollab #inmate4758 #nsregime #nazigermany #worldwar2 #nsoccupation #poland #geschichte #history #patriot #polska #resistance #armiakrajowa #polskibohater #ww2 #soldier #auschwitz #historicaluniforms #bimboliquido #silentrebelart #silentrebel93 https://www.instagram.com/p/CQWP6RfJ4gb/?utm_medium=tumblr
