The morning light slices through the pines as a private van pulls out of central Warsaw, trading the city’s flat skyline for the rolling, forested silence of northeastern Poland. By mid-morning the vehicle slows along rutted tracks where concrete bunkers peer from moss and birch; the Wolf's Lair sits like a fragment of a brutal logistics plan left to the woods.
