We know what happened to the Hungarian freedom fighters in the late 1950s. But John Poszgai was able to escape with his life. He was able to set up a home. become a naturalized citizen in Morrisville. PA. and went to work for International Harvester. A man who would never dream he could come to American made the American dream come true. Yet here he found himself in America with the full rights and privileges. including owning property. as you and I have. He was. of course. as I said. a naturalized citizen and very proud of his citizenship. John Poszgais desire to be a good American far exceeded his ability to speak good English. but nevertheless he always paid his taxes. he raised his family. and he worked hard. And when International Harvester pulled out of Morrisville.
