		I was fortunate on that occasion to be able to visit Jan Nowak in his apartment in Warsaw, close to the place where he'd lived as a young man. The room's large windows seemed to invite in the brilliance of the early morning sun.
		Jan Nowak's apartment was elegantly simple--almost spare--yet it seemed to overflow with life and optimism and joy.
		How Jan Nowak had lived to see a free Poland, a country that stood for freedom, whose brave soldiers at that very hour were once again working and fighting side by side with American allies to bring freedom to Afghanistan and Iraq, nations whose people had been denied freedom for so long.

		Jezioranski joined the Polish underground, became "Jan Nowak," and put his linguistic skills, cool wits, and unshakeable courage at the service of his hard-pressed nation, crisscrossing Europe in disguise to bring news of Poland’s resistance to the Polish government-in-exile in London and to Poland’s British allies.
		It was Jan who told the West about the 1943 Warsaw Ghetto uprising, and Jan who came to London to brief Churchill on plans for the Polish Home Army’s August 1944 Warsaw Uprising; after a depressing interview with the great British prime minister, Jan knew that little help would be coming for the brave Poles.
		For twenty years, Jan Nowak was the "voice" of Radio Free Europe in Poland; Pope John Paul II has told of listening (illegally) to Jan’s news broadcasts while shaving in the morning.

		Jan was heavily invested in the AJC-sponsored National Polish American-Jewish American Council, of which, I am proud to say, I have been a member for over a decade.
		Jan was never the kind of individual who could stand idle in the face of injustice or atrocity.

	Obituary: Jan Nowak-Jezioranski Independent, The (London) - Find Articles
		Born Zdzislaw Jezioranski in Warsaw in 1913, he adopted the nom de guerre Jan Nowak - by which he was to be known for much of the rest of his life - when he joined the wartime resistance.
		In the underground Home Army, Nowak was assigned to the psychological warfare unit, known as Action N. But his key role was as a courier who overcame incredible odds to visit on three occasions the Polish government- in-exile in London, and bring much-needed information about the situation under German occupation.
		Nowak was back in Poland in time to fight in the Warsaw Uprising - the abortive attempt by the Home Army, launched in August 1944, to liberate the city before the Soviet army could take it from the Germans.

		The story of Jan's life, which ended when he died in his native Warsaw at the end of January, was one, perhaps more than any other Pole in living history, forged through webs of intelligence, reason, courage, vision, stubbornness and a sense of history.
		Carrying poison to use in case of capture, Jan warned the resistance that Poland would be betrayed by its allies -- but it was too late, and 30,000 Poles were killed in the ensuing uprising while the Soviet armies stood by, watching.
		After spending decades of his life "on the run," Jan Nowak was buried two weeks ago in a solemn Mass in the restored Warsaw cathedral in an independent Poland.
