Translating from Czech 

NOTE:  I've begun to translate this from Czech (which I read slowly).  Started with more detail in the lede sentence,  not sure when I'll have time to unravel and integrate the rest.  Also will expand a bit,  as in the addition.
For those who may care,  Radio Prague is the source of the first claim;  in Czech,  there's a lot more available about Palach in the past year.  I'll source (and list potential sources here) also as I have a chance.

Please,  no flame/edit wars.
