You can thank Stalin for that. I don't think he ever thought of the tower of babble falling with the use of computers. Just so you know, my grandfather loved his homeland, Poland with all his heart and soul. Although staying would have been his death sentance, Poland never left his heart.
It's funny when I was growing up my girlfriends would not be able to understand my father, to me it was clear as day. I guess, I never thought about why I was called Polock in a negitive way. Being between two country's was so confusing for me as a child. Now for me, I get very hurt when I am told I am not Polish due to being born here. Or wait shouldn't I be part Ukrainian since this is now Ukraine where my father was born? Carol

It seems as if Poland could care less what happened to the ones that had to leave. Thank God my grandfather did not see this site as I know it would have broke his heart. Look at one of my first questions when I came here. It's asking if the Polish families search for us like we search for them? This may take your confusion away. When I did have a phone # to call I was warned about being taken for a ride by Polish just wanting money. This came from people that had been here, done that. I know that my grandfather lived for his family and I always felt this was a trait passed down from Poland. I came to this site hoping to find my Polish family looking for us and yet so far I don't see the Polish looking.
I may be wrong and if I am wrong that would be fantastic. If I am, than Poland please step forward and tell me I am. I grew up never knowing my grandmother, I always looked for her family and this is where I am coming from. Does anyone else here feel this way or am I alone? Carol, USA

Yes, I do respect USA.

If you were in the service and returned to communist after 1947 chances are you were considered, "'enemies of the state", this was known. This was not a choice issue for top brass, they were marked men.
After German Instrument of Surrender, 1945, Polish troops took part in occupation duties in the Wester Allied Occupation Zones in Germany. They were however not invited to the London Victory Parade of 1946.[6][7][1] The formation was finally disbanded in 1947, with many of its soldiers chosing to remain in exile rather than to return to communist-controlled Poland, were they were often seen by the Polish communists as 'enemies of the state', influenced by the Western ideas, loyal to the Polish government in exile, and met with persecution and imprisonment (and in extreme cases, death). Failure of allied Western governments to keep its promise to Poland, which now fell under the Soviet sphere of influence, became know as the 'Western betrayal.' [6][7] The number of Polish ex-soldiers unwilling to return to communist Poland was so high that a special organization was formed by the British government to assist them in settling in United Kingdom, the Polish Resettlement Corps (Polski Korpus Przysposobienia i Rozmieszczenia);[2][8] 114,000 Polish soldiers went through that organization. Since during the war many Poles were stationed in United Kingdom and served alongside British units, many Poles settled in United Kingdom after the war, becoming part of the Polish minority in United Kingdom.[5]

OK and the "ski" on my name must be American. In 1951 my family came to the USA. My father being born in Poland is still Polish and has dual citizenship. As his daughter I am also able to hold dual citizenship.
After fighting WW1/WW2 being betrayed and communism taking over Poland, Poland was no longer. 1989 Poland is back. Look up exiled, this was not a choice for military.
I can relate to this 100%. If not for communist takeover my family would not be denied their Polish heritage. I always thought once I contacted Poland and let them know I am here and have missed them, they would feel the same. Silly me as it seems we are a threat to there property and never given a second thought. How many years did I defend my people to have them question me. My Grandfather was their "Hero" at, "Miracle at Wisla" front line. So much for Poland being there for her people.
I am truly shocked at how cold some can be. Maybe the ones deported that went to free country's are in fact more Polish than the ones that stayed under communist brainwashing?

You are very right, I am waiting for Russia and Ukraine to take responsability and seek resolve. Until this takes place healing cannot take place. How do you trust that change has taken place without this taking place. This is another topic and believe me I get enough backlash for bringing up the past in my other questions.
Back to this question, Is Poland represented and if it is, by whom. If we cannot stop this from happening then maybe we need a "great big" display on the Polish people, all Polish not just Jewish.

Yes, this is what we do. When you try to do this today if your family was in eastern Poland in 1940, good luck. Our heritage was destroyed. Churches burned, houses burned, family killed and then whats left exiled to another part of the world. Communism made us unable to search let alone seek our lost family.
Made our research a joke. Even today if you find the grave you lucked out, as most were not afforded so much as a box for the body. Our markers are non existant due to a pile of naked bodies being lit on fire didn't need one. I can tell you 100% Polish Eddie's 3 1/2 year old body was left in Siberia. My grandmother and two aunts made it to So. Africa. Is that how you look into your heritage? Do you understand where you ended up if you were 100% Polish?
And now Germany wants to be the victims, sorry if I seem insensitive. I wish all that happened to my family were they had to move over to a new boarder. No, we got to go to USA, start a new life from nothing, all this and learn to speak English. For our loved ones that got to stay in communism.....
everybody had to research their ancestors and heritage

Your quote is the headline I took from the artical. Below is the first three para.
The aim of the organisers of the exhibition at the Kronprinzenpalais on Berlin's Unter Den Linden Avenue is ambitious - to explore the plight of millions of people who were forced to flee their homes in Europe during the 20th Century.
There are dozens of examples of civilians who were expelled in Europe, ranging from the mass killing of Armenians from 1915-16, the Holocaust, to refugees in Cyprus and the former Yugoslavia.
There are many objects on display, including suitcases, photo albums and other personal belongings which the refugees took with them into exile.
But, controversially, the exhibition also focuses on the suffering of Germans who were expelled from Poland and Eastern Europe after World War ll.

Honey, this is yet to be seen. Being born in the USA by Polish parents I guess I learned to speak up. They never wanted me to be a pawn, slave or dead due to corruption of power. While the ones under communism could not speak, the ones spead across this nation had a voice. God Bless Poland
Poland has been silenced and unable to speak of what really took place. My prayer for Poland is they do not just to forget the past.
We lost our country and family members. Poland's hero's from WW1 that fought to give Poland their freedom, fought again in WW2 to get it back, ended up being betrayed and in the end lost the very thing they were fighting for. My family's blood was spilled along with all the other Polish, plus they lost their country.
I am far from "old" and "bidder" is not the word I would use. I am "saddened" to see Poland pushed around. After what we went through and the cost to all of Poland how dare countries involved act so brazen. Poland proved how strong they are.
Germany setting up a display of how victimized they were.... Please, think of the cost Poland paid in lives.
It's not just Germany, lets look at Ukraine, 1932-33 lives all of a sudden means something, yet what about accountablity for the ones they took.
Shall I go to Russia, Pres. Putin could have done some damage control and showed the world he has a human heart by showing up at "Katyn" ceremony. Pres. Putin never did come and show respect for our dead men. Instead we read about Polish Pres. may have been drunk.
