Hello Andrzej,
Could you be so kind and check on the Monte Cassino Recipient's List if there is the following soldier on it:
Stanisław Adam WALERIAN (formerly WALERY), parents: Antoni and Antonina née OZIĘBŁOWSKA, born on 1918 in Wołyń (probably near the town of Ilnik Duży - Równo poviat, Kostopol voivodship).
Probably in 1940 he joined the Anders' Army.
After the war he left for the USA and settled near Chicago where he died at the beginning of October 1995.
Thank you in advance
Konrad
