Maria Mostowska, 96, shares her memories with The Associated Press Thursday, July 11, 2019, in Warsaw, Poland, of having faced death during the 1944 Warsaw Rising struggle against the occupying Nazi Germans ahead of state ceremonies marking the 75th anniversary of the failed revolt. Mostowska was a young paediatric nurse during the Warsaw Rising, treating wounded resistance fighters and civilians in Warsaw, and the memories are still vivid even seventy-five years on. On Thursday Aug. 1, Warsaw will honor the failed rising. (AP Photo/Czarek Sokolowski)
