History / Is there a list of those in the Polish Army during WWII? [193]
Lt Marian Ignacy Sienicki
My mother in law recently died and we've been clearing out her stuff. We found some documents and photos relating to her husband - name above. He died ~15 years ago
As far as we know he enlisted before WW2 in the Polish Army and was gazetted as a 2nd lt. Once Poland was over run he fought his way across Europe and ended up in Scotland. We have his registration for the Polish Army in France in Dec 1939 and his discharge from the Resettlement Corps in 1948, but the bit in between is a bit vague.
He never used to talk much about the wartime, but we believe he dropped into Arnhem and after an accident/injury then went on to train paras for the rest of the war. We found some 'action' photos from paras dropping from planes etc which we guess is in Scotland.
Anything anyone could do to fill in the missing years would be most useful.
