SDÍLEJ:
The main Nazi Reinhard Heydrich and his executioners Jozef Gabčík, Jan Kubiš and Josef Valčíkz - this cast is an event that took place within a few minutes in Prague, but had far-reaching psychological consequences for the whole of Europe in the 2nd World War II. From 26 May 1942 could not be sure of life, no SS, even if deep in the rear, beyond the battle lines as a security guard ass. Look at the series of photographs, as in Holesovice looked then and now. The honor belongs to all the heroes who survived Heydrich, and memories of ordinary people, cowards and the unfortunates who are stuck in a war machinery.
