On behalf of President Aleksander Kwasniewski, Lynne Olson and Stanley Cloud authors of the book A Question of Honor were awarded Poland's Knight's Cross on Monday November 8.

A Question of Honor is the story of Polish fighter pilots who helped save England during World War II.

Both Olson and Cloud are in Poland promoting the Polish language version of the book and will attend a reception hosted by U.S. Ambassador to Poland Victor Ashe.

In a ceremony at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Deputy Foreign Minister Adam Rotfeld thanked the authors for telling the story of not only the five pilots but the struggle of the Polish people as well.
