Role of Polish soldiers fighting with the Western Allies has been not really well told in English and in some sense even demoted.
It is often forgotten that Poles fought on all fronts of European theatre of war - from Poland, France, England, Middle East, Italy, Normandy and Eastern Front to Germany on the ground, at sea and in the air.
Only to be betrayed.
Alas the Polish War Memorial in Ruislip is a silent epitaph.

Unfortunately they are all silent epitaphs but none the less respected for their sacrifices, but please dont turn the thread into another political right or wrong decision making debacle made post war, it ruins the thread and can lead to disagreements that have nothing to do with the original post, suffice to say the poles fought hard and were worthy allies
Agreed, yet fate of Poland was not decided post-war but in Tehran and Yalta during the course of war.
Yes I agree but I was refering to the due recognition being given post war
Gday gents
The Jamacian was PO H Capstick 236 Squadron whom died during the battle (not KIA).
The Palestinian was PO GE Goodman (couldn't work out squadron) who was KIA.
Cheers
