History / 'Battle of Britain' won thanks to Polish aces !! [158]

Poles were very popular with the women of the UK and had a reputation as lotharios :)

Yes, that is the line which is repeated ad nauseam these days. Unfortunately, women who were actually there then and met Poles tell it somewhat differently:

The polish Squadron were more animals that human, even our male counterparts complained with disgust at their habits, especially the A.G.M General duties cleaner etc. Toilets were filthy, the huts the same, they peed out of the windows etc, but the worst was yet to come. Several WAAF had been attacked and raped, none in the MT section, but it was scary and the girls were scared to go anywhere. The girls in the MT section had to. Our section was away a long way from our billets and the shortest way was a field path mostly we went in two's etc but we knew there would be times when we'd finish late and therefore a lone walk home. I carried a short tyre iron in my wellie, and fully intended to use it if necessary. Unfortunately it became necessary as I was attacked on my way back to the billet after an extended duty. I finished that night about 9pm instead of 8pm and was really tired so I had to walk back, on the way two drunken yobbish poles came out of nowhere and had a go, one behind grabbed me and I went forward knowing that he was drunk to try and put him off balance, and a sharp elbow helped. As I went forward my right arm was still pinned so I reached over and managed to grab the tyre iron with my left hand, as the other one rushed forward I lifted it outwards and hit him on the side of the head, the other one let go and staggered backwards and I took off.

History / Warsaw Rising 1944 - National Disaster or Triumph of Spirit ? [515]

every little battle they won was lost thanks to Churchill and Roosevelt ( by the hands of Stalin).

Really? Which of those three leaders wanted to send planes with supplies for Warsaw and then land them at Soviet bases without Soviet permission? And which one replied with the words "I do not consider it advantageous to the long range general war prospect for me to join with you in the proposed message to U.J. [Uncle Joe]"?

Life / 3 reasons why you hate Poland. [1049]

Defence lawyer haha .

That would be the reaction of most people when it comes to the idea of moania defending them.

Although you might want to not pretend you're a lawyer while using your real name, that may well be criminal. Oh, and please don't give us your expert opinion as to whether it is or not.

I somehow doubt that it worked out well for them. Perhaps they should have got a proper defence lawyer.

History / Let's talk about the POLISH ARMY [79]

There is as much chance of that happening as there is of a lesbian Jew being appointed pope.
