Picture of Capt Stefan Wyczolkowski. He first served in Russian Army in 1915. In 1917 he changed to 1st Polish Reserve Regiment. After the 1917 Revolution he made it to France to join Haller's Army. In this picture he is wearing a Croix de Guerre with two stars . I think one Bronze star for these being mentioned at Regiment or Brigade level, and one silver for being mentioned in Dispatches at Division level.

Although not murdered in Katyn, but executed on 22 September 1939 by soviets.
A very rare and possibly never published picture of General Jozef Olszyna Wilczynski, wearing Austro Hungarian uniform.
Back of picture says : " "Faedis, Italian land, 05/13/1918. To my dear beloved Mother as proof of my deep sincere gratitude "
