My Mom graduated from High School in 1942. In her yearbook, I found inscriptions from two members of the Polish Squadrons assigned to the RAF. Does anyone have a roster that would help me identify these men and if they survived? Also, does anyone know why two Polish aviators would be in the mid-western portion of the United States in 1942? Helping to raise money? Training at Baer Field? This may be a coincidence, but Baer Field is located in Fort Wayne, Indiana and is named after Paul Baer, who besides being a WWI ace, helped organize the Kosciuszko Squadron in 1919.
