Hi guys,
I've decided to post this thread here, as the other part of the Polish forum is dedicated to the Home Army resistance only, and moreover, many of Poles who had fought in French, Belgian, etc. resistance forces later joined Polish Armed Forces in the West or (mostly in case of the members of communistic organisations like FTPF) 19th or 29th Polish Infantry Detachments of the 1st French Army).
This time I'd like to show you some memorabilia of Poles fighting in French FFI. The armband is said to have been used by the guy living in Paris (I don't know if he took part in the liberation of Paris in 1944). The doc is a FTPF ID card. The winged badge is a French-made FFI commemorative badge. The smaller one is a Polish-made badge for Poles fighting in French Resistance. This Polish badge is shaped similarly to the ZBOWiD collar badge, what makes me believe this badge was given to the ex-FTPF Polish "comrade".
If you have similar souvenirs, feel free to add pics of them.
Regards,
Tom
PS If any French forum member can provide me with information where to search for the FFI badge number record, please let me know.
