Witold Pilecki was a Polish army officer, intelligence agent, social worker, and community leader, who is remembered for deliberately entering the ‘Auschwitz ‘concentration camp as a prisoner, with the intention of gathering information. He also managed to escape the camp with important German documents after 3 years and lived to tell the tale in the report known as the ‘Witold's Report.’ The Roman Catholic also fought in various wars and was part of the Polish army in the Polish–Soviet War, the Second Polish Republic, and the Second World War. Known as one the greatest wartime heroes, Pilecki also fought in the Warsaw Uprising until he was arrested and sent to a camp in Bavaria. Although he was a loyal officer and was remembered for his patriotism, Pilecki was accused of various charges, such as working for “foreign imperialism” and indulging in illegal trading, and was held guilty after trial. He was sentenced to death and was executed in 1948. Films such as ‘The Death of Captain Pilecki’ (2006) and ‘Pilecki’ (2015) were made to honor his legacy. He was also mentioned in documentaries such as ‘Against the Odds: Resistance in Nazi Concentration Camps’ (2004) and ‘Heroes of War: Poland’ (2014).
