I remember it well. I went to school with a lot of Polish people that often wore their Solidarnosc shirts.

I was working in Goose Bay at the time which is the first major airport on the eastern north american continent it was about 0200 and I got a call to get aerodrome up to max staffing ASAP because I think they gonna start shovelling the 130s 141s and c5s through nothing came of it though but it was all because of the Polish events it ruined a perfectly good game of cards

It almost reminds me of what it looked like on TV when the Soviet Union fell.

I was in grade 6.

I do remember the tension though. It was all my parents could talk about.
