All of them, though differently, were connected with the town of Wadowice: some of them were born there, in the 12th Infantry Regiment that stationed in the town, whereas others attended the local school. Besides their bonds with the town of Wadowice, they also shared the expieince of the second world war and of the fight with the German invader. Although, as officers, they seemed to be obliged to combat with the enemy, the decision to put up resistance was never easy. Their fates were once againlinked in Auschwitz, where they were sent as a result repressive organized by the Nazis.
