Antoni Szczęsny Godlewski, (nom-de-guerre Antek the Arsonist) (born January 11, 1923, Warsaw – August 8, 1944, in Warsaw) was a legendary soldier of the Home Army and participant in the Warsaw Uprising.

He was the son of the lawyer Franciszek and Aniela. He started high school in Warsaw but after the Nazi invasion of Poland, the Germans banned secondary education for Poles. As a result Antoni finished his studies and obtained a high school diploma and continued his studies at an underground university of the Warsaw Polytechnic. At this time he joined the Home Army and became a member of its Security Corps.

He was killed on the 8 August after the break out of the Uprising, on the corner of Bracka St. and Aleje Jerozolimskie. His place of death is marked by a memorial plaque. For his bravery in battle he was posthumously awarded the Cross of Valour and the Order of Virtuti Militari, Fifth Class. Today, a street in the Wola neighborhood of Warsaw is named after him.

        01.08.1944 | Began the Warsaw Uprising

        The Warsaw Uprising (Polish: powstanie warszawskie) was a major World War II operation by the Polish resistance Home Army (Polish: Armia Krajowa) to liberate Warsaw from Nazi Germany. The rebellion was timed to coincide with the Soviet Union's Red Army approaching the eastern suburbs of the city and the retreat of German forces.[9] However, the Soviet advance stopped short, enabling the Germans to regroup and demolish the city while defeating the Polish resistance, which fought for 63 days with little outside support. The Uprising was the largest single military effort taken by any European resistance movement during World War II.
