I am a retired captain with United Airlines. I, also, served in the Air Force, Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve for 26 years as a fighter pilot. I have created a site in which I intend to post items of interest to me. I hope they are interesting to you, too. Please feel free to view my topics as well as my links. Afterward, I would be happy for you to post any comments you like. When doing so, kindly identify yourself as the author. A pen name or pseudonym is acceptable.
Irena Sendler was credited with saving 3000 Jews during WWII. The heartwarming story about this heroine that recently died at age 98 is in Snopes.com. In 2007 Irena was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. She didn't get it. Check out who got it in her stead. Click on the link below.

She was a amazing person who should have won the Nobel peace prize over Al Gore.
Happy to have read this today..a true hero. My husband's family never votes or pays attention to the news, so I forwarded this story. When you don't pay attention to what's going on and don't vote, you end up with Hitler's and progressives who feel they have to control others.
Great timing for this story. Someone please send it to Glen Beck & others in the media. I'm not that knowlegible with the computer.
What an amazing woman! Too bad her story has come to surface so late. I hope during her lifetime she at least received recognition for her work and most definitely deserved the Nobel Peace Prize over Al Gore.
I believe Irena is receiving a reward far greater than the Nobel Peace Prize.
