        The party went on until 2 am apparently, though held at the British Legation. FDR, who preferred early nights and a pre-prandial martini, must have been wearied by the endless round of vodka toasts initiated by Uncle Joe, in which he could only join in with spring water.

        "Would the transfer of population be possible on a voluntary basis?" asked Roosevelt. "Probably it would be" was Stalin's reply. The Discussion of Poland was at an end." - M.Gilbert "Road to Victory": Winston S.Churchill 1941-5 p.590 pbk.edn.

        Sounds like craven surrender to me. But troops on the ground get the casting vote.

        The Allied offensive in Italy launched 3 months before had virtually ground to a halt. Overlord was 7 months away. The Germans had upwards of 150 divisions on the Eastern Front. We didn't have an enormous amount of leverage over Stalin.

        Realpolitik. I'm very familiar with the concept. Still depresses me from time to time though.

        This week 1943 my father had settled-in as POW at Stalag Luft III Germany. Dad began rehearsal in a new camp theater. Under an innovative theater chair 'trap door' is where they lowered sand every night from The Great Escape tunnel being dug under hut 104 for the upcoming escape.

        Churchill & Stalin only ones showing positive expression. All others, including FDR are apprehensive and glum. Great historical moment captured.
