The National Military History Center (5634 CR 11A, Auburn, IN) will be hosting its annual Memorial Day Remembrance to honor all veterans. Featured this year will be the presentation of the Siberian Cross to a Soviet gulag survivor and Auburn resident, Stanley Kowalski. The tale of his survival is featured in the book "No Place to Call Home". The Executive Director of the Museum, Bob Krafft, will present the medal. A representative from Senator Souder's office will also be in attendance.

The ceremony starts at 11 am on Monday, May 25, 2009. There will also be a presentation by Honor Flight Northeast Indiana to the History Center as well as words from a veteran who went on the first flight. Free refreshments will be served following the ceremony.

No Place to Call Home relates the experiences of a 19-year-old Polish man who is captured by the Soviets at the beginning of World War II and sent to a Siberian concentration camp in Kolyma. It is a story that is largely forgotten in most history books today. Each prison
and gulag Stanley is sent is "no place to call home". In order to survive the un-survivable, the prisoners must work in collaboration with each other. Of the unknown hundreds of thousands sent to the Siberian gulags, only 583 Polish prisoners would return, one of them being Stanley Kowalski. This is his story.
