Andrzejku,
Thank you for your quick reply. I guess he was a baker - that's so cool. I like to think of all folks who were part of the 2nd Corps and at the critical time took part in the Battle of Monte Cassino.

Thank you Andrzej!

All the best,
a77

(...)And I can't help but agree that the mis-listing of the cross on the numizmatyka site is suspicious. (...)

This time Niemczyk lists another MCC in the right category PSZ/Z (Polish Forces in Exile).

Cheers,

Krzyż Monte Casino nr 28661

Warsaw Police seized the stolen MCC at Niemczyk’s Antykwariat Numizmatyczny in Warsaw on the 1st of July 2015.

Hello...Is anybody out there?

I have picked up the cross today. Can't remember to have been this happy as I am today...Well, never give up. Justice comes to those who wait

Cheers,
Kosa
