ppor. Lisiewicz Mieczyslaw 3 KPAPL (pluton warsztatowy)

[ValeriiGajewski]

Hello there Dear Andrzej and everyone!

I have found very interesting story about one soldier & still
coudn't understand his full military way.
Kindly ask you to provide possible information about:

ppor. Lisiewicz Mieczyslaw

- born: most of all 13(3) Aug 1909
- place of birth: most of all Knihinin, wojęw. Stanisławowskie (Ukraine now)
- son of: Włodzimierz & Albina Lisiewicz
- wife: Maria Józefa Lisiewicz, after married second time became Kracewicz
- army #: most of all 1909/97/??? (in 3 DSK list enlisted as ppor. 3. bryg). In which KU he have been enlisted, which place?
- military unit: 3KPAPL (pluton warsztatowy)

On 1932 he finished sub-officers courses at 6 dywizjon artylerii przeciwlotniczej (6daplot)
and get rank of Corporal.


Is it possible from someone's side check "Rocznik oficerski" till what time and where he continued
his military service?


From Myheritage website I have found that before 1937 he was a civilian
sailor (deck-boy) first on M/S Batory and from 1938 became a fireman on M/S Pilsudski.



Also I have found very strange information that he was recognized twice as a died person:
1) First time on M/s Chrobry on which he was a radio operator,
sunk by the Germans On 14/15 maj 1940, was pronounced as missing person.

2) Second time his wife get a very strange document that he sunk again on the same ship (M/s Chroby) on May 1946 and July 1949.
As I understood that information couldn't be truthful, because M/s Chrobry have been destroyed on may 1940:


Also he appears on September 1942 as a passenger to NY from port of Cardiff (departure & arrival records attached).

Inside Monograph of 3KPAPL he appears three times:

First on 11 Feb. 1944 as ppor. who brought from port of Bari eleven 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft guns:


Second time On 14 Feb. 1944 as a second officer he moved with pluton warsztatowy to San Paolo Matese railway station:


Last one as an officer from the list off commanders of 3 KPAPL before battle of Monte Cassino:


From the fold3 web site I also found his naturalization USA record from Cambridge, state Massachusetts on 1954:


Dear members, if it possible kindly ask you to provide any additional information about this soldier - photos, place of death,
info about strange military way & etc.

Regards, Valerii
