Genealogy / Does anyone have any relatives who served with 1st Polish Armoured Division (Gen. Maczek) [310]

The Kosciuszko Foundation - Petition on German Concentration Camps
thekf.org
WHEREAS the media uses the historically erroneous terms "Polish concentration camp" and "Polish death camp" to describe Auschwitz and other Nazi extermination camps built by the Germans during World War II, which confuses impressionable and undereducated readers, leading them to believe that the Holocaust was somehow Polish please sign the petition

"For much of the nineteenth and early twentieth century Poland was divided and ruled by its three imperial neighbours: Prussia, Austria and Russia. The Poles’ fight against this occupation forced thousands into exile. Many then joined the armies of other nations who shared their struggle for freedom. The title of the exhibition is a motto from these years that found new meaning during the dark days of World War Two".
