Warsaw Rising 1944 - National Disaster or Triumph of Spirit ?

Sorry, less than 100.000. 300.000 stationed in GDR.
600.000 is the number of Soviet soldiers who fell in combat fighting Nazi Germans in Polish territory. after Hitler and Stalin, the loyalest allies 1939-1941, fell out with each other.

Brilliant. You know how much I value those rare moments when the two of us agree on something. :) Let's indeed rejoice. *champagne glasses clinking*

I wonder how many of them will die "liberating" Ukraine from the influence of the fascist EU and NATO?

Another famous batallion with a funny name was Zośka - Sophie. The name was the nom de guerre of an underground soldier Tadeusz Zawadzki, called so by his mates for his handsomeness. Zośka participated in or organised a lot of actions against German occupiers and died in one of them.

"Zośka" battalion - a battalion of the Home Army (AK) taking part in the Warsaw Uprising , consisting primarily of members of the Gray Ranks , the underground Polish Scouting and Scouting Association ;

In the Warsaw Uprising, the "Zośka" battalion fought in the "Radosław" Home Army grouping in Wola and the Old Town , from where the "Rudy" company , commanded by Andrzej Romocki "Morro", was the only one among the Old Town garrison to break through to Downtown District through the German outposts in the Saxon Garden .

After capturing on August 2 , 1944 in the area of ​​ul. Okopowa two German PzKpfw V Panther tanks , an armored platoon was formed in the composition of the battalion under the command of Wacław Micuta pseud. Wacek

The "Rudy" company was recognized by the Home Army command as the best of the 40,000-strong crew of soldiers fighting in the Warsaw Uprising, e.g. in a daring attack capturing the Warsaw concentration camp . For fighting in the Warsaw Uprising, the Commander-in-Chief awarded the "Zośka" battalion with the Silver Cross of the Virtuti Militari Order (5th class).

Reminds me of the famous poem written by an insurgent poet Zbigniew Jasiński in 1944 - in the title and last lines, he demanded more ammo for the Rising.

Zbigniew Jasiński "We demand ammunition"

We have wolf teeth here and our hats are sideways.
Here, no one cries in Fighting Warsaw.
Here we sit astride the necks of Prussians
and choke our enemies by the throat with bare hands

And you are still singing there, that with the dust of brotherly blood,
that Warsaw is destroyed in the smoke of fires,
and we are here, naked to the cannon shots,
to your admiration, to your singing and to your applause.

Why do you still sing the mournful chants in London,
when the long-awaited holiday has finally arrived here!
Girls fight here alongside their boys,
And little children fight, and blood flows joyfully.

Hello! This is the heart of Poland! This is Warsaw speaking!
Let the funeral songs be banned from the broadcast!
There is enough spirit for us and there is enough for you!
No applause needed! We demand ammunition!

Turned into a hard rock song by the group called Irydion:
