C:-) Mods: wasn't sure if this one should go in the Military History or RPFW thread.

The Vatican is set to open the secret archives of Pope Pius XII, the World War II-era pope whose record during the Holocaust has come under intense scrutiny.

The archive will be opened on March 2.

I missed this.  I'm glad they are opening the archives a little early.  It is usually 70 years after the death of a pope.
