Philippe, I have to correct myself. I asked my Polish colleague and got it explained.
Szer. = szeregowiec = Private
Surname: Sroka
First name: Mieczyslaw
So I see now how in Russain transmription his name turned into Mikhail Soroka.
The question is if the MIA report is also relates to the same Sroka/Soroka.
I will try to see into it.
