On Thursday, Slovak soldiers joined an international military march in Warsaw for a 350 kilometre pilgrimage to the Polish town of Czestochowa commemorating an alleged miracle. It is believed that in the 17th century the local monastery of Jasna Góra was saved by the Black Madonna icon displayed inside of it. Five members of the Slovak Armed Forces joined Polish, German, American, Croatian and Austrian soldiers also taking part in the international ten-day long military pilgrimage.
