Little Green Footballs: Poland Remembers 9/11

Impressive:
Candles will burn again on the symbolic graves of those from the Podlasie Region in Poland who perished in the terrorist attack on the World Trade Centre six years ago.

Among them were Lukasz Milewski from Suwalki and Dorota Kopiczko from Augustow.

In the Suwalki cementary, there is a tombstone dedicated to the two who died, which resembles the Twin Towers joined by a crucifix, where candles are lit up on every September 11.

The Christ the King Chapel in Suwalki is dedicated to Lukasz and the church bell is named after him.

A mass is held in his honour Suwalki on every anniversary of the tragedy. Lukasz Milewski was 21 years old.

His body was one of many never identified.
