Short book “Seven Men at Day Break” is a worthwhile read. Fiction in terms of dialogue, but otherwise a compelling re-living of the events from the czech point of view.

FWIW the film portrays the turncoat, Karel Curda, as betraying the hiding place of the assassins in an attempt to forestall even worse reprisals by the Germans.

with the nazis and communists, you might as well get your licks in where you could, since they were going to kill all of you one way or the other.

The part I liked the best is that he died of infection after quite a while.

Heydrich was a badass...


A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

What kind of [bleep] up web site allows the adoration of ficking NAZIS, yet won't allow you to use the word [bleep]?

You should have used a hyphen for ever-loving.

Some of the German soldiers were true badasses. Like the guy commanding a tiger tank who destroy a whole British armored brigade.
