Amy and I went into the National Memorial to the Heydrich Terror just down the street from our apartment. The museum is in the crypt of the Orthodox Cathedral of Saints Cyril and Methodius. After assassinating Reinhard Heydrich, one of Nazi Germany's most terrifying commanders, the young Czech special forces soldiers hid out in the church and--after being betrayed by one of their own--later sacrificed themselves instead of being captured.
