In Gdansk IPN researchers presented unpublished so far, nearly dwudziestominutowy, esbecki film shot during the pilgrimage of John Paul II to this city, in June 1987. Also appeared in a book describing the scenes of the Holy Father's residence in Gdansk and the associated event of the Security Service.
film shows very well the atmosphere of those years. On one hand, cheering in honor of the pope - a Pole crowds, on the other PRL security forces who have tried to always be close to John Paul II. Secret police all the time taking pictures and filming of the Holy Father and praying people.
In the film, see eg Pope, as he gets to Sydney's St. Mary, goes through the streets of Gdynia, celebrating the Kosciuszko Square. There is also John Paul II on the ORP Lightning, sailing boat Westerplatte and praying at the Monument to Fallen Shipyard Workers.
The pictures show the usual scenes of this extraordinary period. Dantzig prepare for a visit, and every stage of these preparations closely followed the officers of the State Security Service.
She said Marzena Kruk from the Gdansk branch of the IPN, for example, were chosen to arrest 103 people in connection with the visit of Pope John Paul II. Some people have been removed from this list. You may have a share of the opposition by the SB and the extreme liberal. Surely, therefore, by Marzena Kruk, struck from the list, among other things, Bogdan Borusewicz.
The film was connected with the promotion of the book 'Operation Aurora II ". Security Service and the Provincial Committee of Communist Party against the visit of John Paul II in the Tri-City (June 1987), introduction and edited by Slawomir Cenckiewicz Scientific, Marzena Kruk, Slawomir Cenckiewicz development, Adam Chmielewski, Marzena Kruk, Monika Krzencessa-Trichet, Peter Semkow, Przemyslaw Wojtowicz.
of the operation, "Aurora II" was "the protection of operating the third pilgrimage of Pope John Paul II Polish. A plan of action arose SB the Interior Ministry in late 1986 and 1987. Head of Operations Headquarters, "Aurora II" was Gen. Zbigniew Pudysz. Reflection of the central operations "Aurora II" was its regional mutations created by the provincial offices of internal affairs. Such a plan, "Aurora II" was also in Gdansk in February 1987 the person responsible for its implementation was Col. John Sosnowski - one of the deputies of the regional commander for the SB and former head of the Department IV of SB in Gdansk. References in this publication, the documents concern the conduct of operations "Aurora II" in the Tri-City. At the same time they show the ratio of management SB and KW Communist Party in Gdansk for the visit of Pope John Paul II to Poland in June 1987
Adam Chmielewski : "interesting and very telling, because that shows the complexity and scale of activities of the police and SB aspect of the operation was its propaganda dimension of . SB action or, more broadly WUSW Gdansk, which may be divided into part of "defensive" - \u200b\u200bas the sequestration of the hundreds of banners and thousands of publications and brochures with "nieprawomyślnymi slogans" - and "offensive", including for example, to prepare their own flag and inspiring materials in the media. Today we know that even though most of the articles in the Journal of the Baltic "," Voice of the Coast "and" Evening Coast "on the pilgrimages of John Paul II, but also the situation of Catholics in Poland and state relations - Church, was a duplicate of journalists by the regime propagandists and guidance notes Communist Party.
The same had happened with a number of alleged "spontaneous" and "bottom-up" banners, which was adorned with Gdańsk, not only for the meeting with the Pope. It is interesting at the direction of the PRL Propaganda on the coast, trying to draw attention to the problem ... Polishness Danzig (Polish Gdańsk has always "," Western and Northern territories forever Polish). You can see "liberation" of the city on the hands of the Germans Motława was the only argument the communists - in their own eyes - that could legitimize their authority. Of course, could not miss a standardized subtitle reads "Socialism - Honor - Homeland 'or' socialist Poland our common good."
The common good of participants in the meetings with John Paul II in 1987, however, saw otherwise and could not change that no specific efforts, and the Communist Party esbeckich-legislative instruments, the "Pilgrims." Almost exactly two years after the third pilgrimage of the Pope, 4 June 1989 in Poland, held the first after World War II in part democratic parliamentary election. Light "Aurora II" is not pierced by the words of John Paul II. "
