Grandad was RAF spoke highly of his polish comrades although he did say it was hard work communicating over the radio when flying sometimes.

my dad was in commando regiment during WW2 and he always said that the Poles were one helluva nation, full of very very brave men and women.

 

[Polishtradesman]

Yes, it was long time ago but that got symbolic meaning for me. That how polish presence has begun in this country. Protecting its sky

If it wasnt for the Polish fighter pilots during WW2 then we would never have won the Battle of Britain.

Then at the end of the war we left Poland to it so Stalin could over run their country, Thats gratitude for you.

I turned down a 2000+m2 limestone job because i didn't know enough tilers to get the work done.
A team of Polish guys turned up and did a fantastic job, were very conscientious, and were a pleasure to work alongside.
I feel it is a shame that us Brits give other countries tradesmen a bad name, take a look around the UK, we have our own fair share of rough work to not be proud of!!
I've also climbed with Polish climbers, hard as nails!!

Tht is true. But I still belive Churchill was a friend of Poland, he knew that Germany were about to discover nuclear weapon, he was afraid, he needed finish the war asap. Stalin was too strong and Roosvelt didnot care about Poland. That how my country has fallen under another occupation for 45 years. Soviet occupation.

appeasement was always an option Bartek, luckily for Europe it was never initiated thanks to a brave few government officials that had some backbone,,,also the intervention of the US came in handy too

Stalin or Hitler,,,,talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place:mad2:

I cannot say how proud I am to have been privileged to help form and lead No. 303 squadron and later to lead such a magnificent fighting force as the Polish Wing. There formed within me in those days an admiration, respect and genuine affection for these really remarkable men which I have never lost. I formed friendships that are as firm as they were those twenty-five years ago and this I find most gratifying. We who were privileged to fly and fight with them will never forget and Britain must never forget how much she owes to the loyalty, indomitable spirit and sacrifice of those Polish fliers. They were our staunchest Allies in our darkest days; may they always be remembered as such!

Britian still remembers and your friendly attitude, it is beatyful feeling. We are friends and hopefully in few year my nation will not be strangers as it was 10 years ago.

 

[Muse2k8]

All very true words

It's a shame our countries were once so close friends and we drifted apart.

Chamberlain was such a wimp, instead of coming back waving a piece of white paper (which still smacks of "surrender" to me) he should've come back with a declaration of war thus hopefully halting if not averting the 3rd Reich's invasion of Poland and all the atrocities that were committed there.

 

[Polishtradesman]

I agree, Chamberlain was a wimp

 

[Polishtradesman]

Do you remember this small mistake hahaha
