Nobody looks so special about the figure of Nicholas Winton. Already so old, graying hair like a grandfather who lived to grow old with his wife. And no one knows if he ever was a hero rescue 669 children.
Had his wife, Grete in 1988 did not find sheet memo from 1939 and photographs of children, Winton will probably remain unknown heroes. After the discovery of the new world Grete eye is open, there seems to be a hero in World War II, which can save a future generation.
