A translation of the former school minister and university professor Dr. In the 10th anniversary of the Czechoslovak Republic, Jan Kapras sent out "From the Homeland Resistance". The script was only published in Czech and was translated from here, Kapras was one of the leading minds of the World War II illaffia s- and Hochgrad Freemasons (33. ) of the most heavily involved in the Czech resistance work of the World War. His remarks are of particular interest not only as an authentic historical development of the Czech resistance movement in Germany during the World War, but also because they are of special value because they allow testing comparisons to assess the Czech political and ille- cial development nourishing the present war and strengthen the psychological correctness of the line represented by the German gluttony in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia by looking at a historical parallel. For this reason, the writing should be particularly appropriate for training purposes, especially since the interpretations of the Masonic Kapras indicate to what extent the problem of steering the czech people in war is a task of security police character, which wants to be solved with political instinct and with a keen knowledge of Czech mentality and methods, e.g. J a c o b i Obersturmbannführer F.d.R.i
