And there were many squadrons and single pilots out of RAF: - Many fought in Polish-French squadrons in huge battles of 1940. - There was a whole Polish Air Force Corps in Polish People's Army (we often forget they were not politicians, they shoot Germans and had no red star but Polish Checkerboard on wings) - There were some Polish pilots in USAAF divisions, like multiple ace Gabby. - There was even one Pole in Chineese flying tigers squadron. Finally, remember about those who fought and were arrested in September 1939. Not everyone had opportunity to escape, or was able to travel whole Europe on false papers.

W czasach stalinowskich zaczęła się zupełnie inna wojna - z polskim ziemiaństwem, ocalałą inteligencją, arystokracją, ludźmi przedwojennego biznesu, bohaterami II wojny światowej..Powstała nowa klasa nuworyszy - czerwonych Chazarów. Oni twierdzą, że są Polakami, ale Polaków poniżają, żeruja na nas, szkodzą Polsce w UE. Społeczeństwo jest we śnie - nie dostrzega historycznych analogii. Daje się wciągnoąć w nonsensowne wojenki.Nie pojmują tragizmu swojego położenia. Dla nich moje pokolenie to tylko moherowe berety, a nie źródło informacji. Wyemiogrowałam do Francji w atmosferze głębokiego rozczarowania zachodzącymi zmianami w Solidarnej Polsce. Wróciłam do kraju, by tu umrzeć. Często marzę o normalnej Polsce dla młodzieży. Mrzonki. Każde pokolenie musi wydrzeć sobie normalność. Żeby coś z tego wyszło, trzeba rozumieć świat.Dokonywać rozsadnych wyborów. Nie głosować na ludzi, którzy gardzą Polską i Polakami, choć obiecują złote góry - a po cichu sprzyjają Niemcom. Chcą naszego upadku. Władzę należy rozliczać na podstawie twardych statystycznych danych, a nie kłamliwej propagandy. Czas promować swoich, a nie wciąż ich. Za każdym razem ich!

Those that did return did so of their own free will as they were not prisoners in the UK. Please feel free to attend any UK remembrance day parade where you will STILL see tributes paid and wreaths laid to those Polish who fought alongside us against nazi tyranny.

I am grateful that you raised this topic. It should not be forgotten, because the fate of Polish soldiers after World War II was tragic. Those soldiers who decided to return to the country did not know that only prison and restrictions awaited them in the country. The communist governments treated them as an enemy of the country, as spies of foreign countries in which they fought the German enemy. And this is a huge tragedy for these people. They were never appreciated in their own country and were treated as an enemy. Many of them lost their lives and health in communist prisons, many could not get a normal job, because for the communist government, these soldiers were enemies, because they had contacts with the "West". My uncle, returned from France, where he fought, returned to Poland and it ended in tragedy for him. He did not agree to join the communist party, he spent many years in prison, where he died. The second uncle, freed from the camp, got to Canada. Many years later he wrote letters to us, I remember it was the 1960s , my parents had problems, they were called for interrogations, they were asked who wrote them and we know that the letters were censored. Those were terrible times. And I feel very sorry for those soldiers, scattered around the world, because they had a great longing for their homeland and could not return.

Polish tactics of killing Germans were so effective for three reasons: 1: Polish Aviation in the country had old planes, in order to shoot down the enemy they had to get very close to the enemy. 2: Polish pilots had hundreds of more hours flown than most British pilots. 3. Germany has been attacking Poland for 1000 years, so the desire to destroy them was in our blood, sent with our mother's milk, but it is their fault. Even today, Germans treat Poland as a second category and a country closer to the east than the west. Germans don't like the idea that Poland could be strong, it spoils the German social program. Germany - cheap raw materials from Russia (gas, oil, coal, steel, grain), Poland is a highly qualified labor force to cheaply process these raw materials into German goods and it should stay that way. The Germans do not want a strong Poland, not that we have never had such intentions to attack them, but they do not want us at the main decision-making table, we have to sit like children at the smaller one. As for Great Britain - we feel cheated for September 1939, when help did not come, for the Uprising of 1944, when Churchill did not agree to send Polish paratroopers and to airdrops of supplies from the first days of the uprising. Polish pilots and paratroopers were banned from flying. And we feel betrayed the most in 1945 when we were sold to Russia, which resulted in another 45 years of slavery and Soviet occupation. The blood shed together meant nothing to the Allies. Even though we fought together in Italy (Monte Cassino), France, the Netherlands (Operation Market Garden, we saved hundreds of British soldiers), Africa, Dunkirk, the Ardennes, Battle of Narvik Norwey, The Polish destroyer ORP Piorun, as part of a Royal Navy operation, engaged in combat in the Atlantic against the then most powerful Kriegsmarine ship, the battleship "Bismarck". in the skies of England, on the seas and on land. 45 years under Soviet rule, lack of development, stagnation, backwardness by 20-30 years, resulted in the fact that today, earning 3-4 times less than Western countries, many of us, descendants of these soldiers, are waiters, dishwashers, nurses, cleaners in your homes. , hospitals, bars. We want nothing but for the truth about our grandparents and fathers to be known, that they fought there for democracy and our and yours freedom. Glory to the Heroes. Thank you for your kind words about our soldiers. Let the Polish-British friendship continue to flourish, and when the day comes we will prove ourselves, because Russia is already targeting us. I know the British soldier will support us. Regards.

Polish pilots, from what I remember, knew French, which was then the language of the European middle class and aristocracy. Some of them spoke German. English was really an unknown language to them. The pilots of 303 Squadron are highly respected in Poland. We learn about them in history. Apart from this division, the "Polish hunting team" is equally famous, called "Skalski's circus", because it performed circus acts in the air - they took part in the North African campaign. Polish soldiers were indeed old flirts, the cultural difference in the treatment of women gave them an advantage ;) And what's a few broken hearts compared to the fact that we saved your island ;)

13:28 Oh yes, they are. Squadron 303 and Witold Urbanowicz in particular are well remembered and honored in Poland - he is the one who said 'We do not beg for freedom, we fight for it' - quote very often repeated in Poland. Józef Franciszek is not Polish however, he was Czech but every Pole who knows history knows his name and if there is talk about squadron 303 you can be damn sure someone will mention Franciszek just so he is not omitted. As a small fun fact about Squadron 303, known also as Kościuszko's Squadron. It was formed in 1940 but took the name of Kościuszko to honor the ones who fought in battle of Warsaw in 1920 in Kościuszko's Squadron. A squadron of American pilots who fought alongside Poles to pay off the debt Americans had to the Poles for all the achievements of Kościuszko and Pułaski in fight for American independence. If you look at the emblem of squadron 303 you will quickly notice it resembles American flag and contains symbols of Kosciuszko's Scythemen. Also, one of the American Pilots was future director of King Kong - Merian C. Cooper. 25:45 : Poles are famous for fighting impossible odds. Battle of Kłuszyno ~6.5k Poles vs 30k Russians and 5k Swedish mercenaries. Battle of Hodów 400 Poles defending a village from 40k Tatars (yes 40, not 4) until reinforcements started to get close - Situation where 400 men made Tatars forsake their plans of invasion. Battle of Kircholm, 3.5k Poles vs 11k Swedes. All of those fights were won by the Poles and are just a handful of the most popular ones. There is much more, but Sabaton's song 40:1 that sings the tale of Battle of Wizna where 1k Poles stood against 41k Germans, ~300 tanks and like half a thousand of artillery delineates Polish fearlessness quite well. They lost at Wizna, but the commander after saying he will die before he surrenders blew himself up with a grenade. Poles lost cause they ran out of ammunition. So yeah, 40:1. "We will count them after we beat them" - Supposedly spoken by Chodkiewicz (Polish commander from battle of Kircholm mentioned above) but according to findings, it was answer of Polish hussars to Chodkiewicz's speech. It is also a famous quote in Poland.

W Londyńskiej paradzie zwycięstwa(1946) nie było polskiego przedstawicielstwa -aby nie drażnić Stalina 3. Wciąż za mało znane prace polskich kryptologów którzy pierwsi złamali kod Enigmy 4. Polskie złoto w Banku Londyńskim zostało zatrzymane i potrącone z niego spore sumy za utrzymanie Polskiej Armii w GB. Pierwszy raz sojusznik musiał zapłacić za to, że pomagał i przelewał krew.

We Poles often say: the West won the war, Poland on the other hand lost. We say it because when the dust settled we had to reimburse over £100mil for whatever our soldiers used whilst fighting for Britain. Not to mention no war reparations and being left behind the iron curtain.

The British Government did not want to offend Stalin in 1946. Yet, Stalin invited members of the First and Second Polish Armies, which fought alongside the Red Army all the way to Berlin and Dresden, to his Moscow Victory Parade. Go figure. I also wonder why only the 303 Squadron is mentioned these days, even in Poland. There were other Polish squadrons such as the 300, 301 bomber squadrons, and 302 fighter squadron involved in the battle. Overall there was a total of 145 Polish pilots, some integrated with British squadrons, who fought in the Battle of Britain, and not just the 303 despite the high number of planes it shot down. By 1945 the Polish Airforce under British command totalled 20,000 pilots (including some women transport pilots), mechanics, crewmen and other related airforce personnel. There were also a number of Polish bomber squadrons giving the Germans in Germany a taste of their own medicine, and also attempting to drop supplies to their countrymen fighting in the 63-day 1944 Warsaw Uprising. Thanks for the positive and heartfelt reaction. My late father, who served with the Polish Army fighting in the West, also could not go home and ended up settling here in Australia like so many other Polish WW2 veterans.

In Poland we all know the history of 303 Squadron. The most famous names of the pilots, that people usually remember, are for instance Witold Urbanowicz, Jan Zumbach or Mirosław Ferić (the last one I know especially because of the fact that before the war he graduated from the same secondary school - gimnazjum - that also my grandpa graduated from). And it is worth mentioning that before the war in Poland there was a very good academy for pilots - The Air Force Officer School in Dęblin, established in 1925. So they were all really exquisite, well trained pilots.

On the way, they witnessed a dogfight during which an outmaneuvered German plane crashed to the ground. Everyone ran there with interest and saw, next to the wreck, a shoe (still with a sock inside) and a few meters away a detached naked leg. Urbanowicz to cadets: "Never forget to wash your feet"

In this document one of the pilots who tells his war memories is Franciszek Kornicki - who died in 2017 and was the last living Polish pilot fighter squadron commander from the II WW. In autumn 2017, short before his death, the British RAF Museum organised an Internet poll to select "The People's most renowned Spitfire Pilot" to be commemorated at the Museum's RAF special centenary exhibition. And what is interesting - among all the names of eleven RAF pilots, Franciszek Kornicki won the Internet poll voting and thanks to that he was commemorated at this British RAF Museum's exhibition. It was short before his 101th birthday.

My grannie was telling me that my grand, grand uncle was a pilot in Great Britain. Grannie was talking abt Zdzislaw Krasnodębski alas “King”, founder and first commander of 303. Urbanowicz saved his life when he was shot down and severely burned. He was teaching from the ground later, unable to fly. After war he was a cab driver in Toronto and few years ago his ashes (and his wife’s Wanda) were transferred to cemetery Powązki in Warsaw. Today I life in Northolt.

If it wasn't for the France and the UK (but mostly the UK) then Warsaw would STILL have swastikas flying over it today. The UK was the FIRST country post WW2 to GIVE FULL national citizenship to nearly 300,000 Polish ex-service personnel who had fought alongside them. That gift saved their lives and prevented them from ending up dead in a ditch in a remote Polish forest with an NKVD bullet in the backs of their heads. With regard to enigma, Poles with a LOT of help from French intelligence provided the "acorn" from which the UK alone grew the oak tree of the ULTRA program. You need to learn some history yourself and NOT blindly believe the left wing BS you were brainwashed with during 45 years of communist rule in Poland post WW2.

In this book you can see a fascinating story about Polish soldiers with a soldier-bear Wojtkek and the British politics in the background. Polish history is unbelievable and there are many amazing people there to study but they are mostly unknown for the broad public due to being politically inconvinient. It is worth to study.

Entire Squadron is still remembered. Actually during WWII first female fighter jet pilots were also Polish.And if I recall well one of them was a real born baronesse, who was passionate about car racing and planes because of her father who was crazy about such things. As for other interesting stuff we also had a princess smuggling Irish rebels and weapons under her dress, so yeah. Polish people and Polish temper. This documentary shows this well. Polish national temper is about doing such crazy stuff whenever circumstances require it. We have done it before, we can always do it again.

I just let Air Chief Marshal Sir Hugh Dowding, commander-in-chief of Fighter Command, Royal Air Force speak: Had it not been for the magnificent material contributed by the Polish squadrons and their unsurpassed gallantry, I hesitate to say that the outcome of the Battle would have been the same. There is almost nothing more to say about this issue.

One of the pilots of 303 was also a Czech, Jozef Frantisek. As a Pole, I also thank the Czechs for Jozek in our squadron.

Few facts that creators got COMPLETELY wrong or missed: @4:06 "few hundred RAF pilots" In reality RAF had over 1250 combat pilots in its ranks in June 1940 (per Peter j. Dye "Logistics of Battle of Britain) and most of those were fighter pilots. In August 1940 RAF had 1061 fighter pilots (as per Wood D. Dempster D. "The Narrow Margin"). The number of RAF fighter pilots actually grew during the battle thanks to volunteers from abroad and transfers from Coastal Command and Bomber Command. @8:00 "the Germans had 2500 aircraft, the RAF just over 600" Again: a lie! RAF started the battle with about 1950 combat planes, for crying out loud! 750 one man-fighters, 150 two seat fighters 550 bombers and 500 other aircraft (more planes than pilots for them, mind). That is from official RAF rosters in "The Most Dangerous Enemy : A History of the Battle of Britain" by Bungay S. Even counting one man fighters the numbers is just WRONG. But the number for German planes is total and off by maybe 50 planes ... @10:45 The tactic the British tried very hard to teach Poles was the outdated WWI tactic of flying entire flight in one line or in v formation, and a squadron of three flights next to each other (on the same height) with lone observer in the rear. The observer was usually the first casualty, at this layout limited visibility. Poles wanted to fly in a formation of two pairs flying on different altitudes and one plane to the side and behind the other. This allowed better visibility and manoeuvrability - it was how Germans flew (the rotte) and Poles saw how effective it was. This is not mentioned in this video at all. @13:37 At the end of August RAF lost about 400 fighter planes (about 45% of those available in the beginning of the battle, not counting those made during this few months), but not the same number of pilots! Most parachuted and some were flying the same day or the next day in a different plane! All in all about 23 -25% (depending on a source) of RAF fighter pilots died during the Battle, huge number,p true, but not 50%! @45:24 Frantisek died in the plane crash, when flying to close to the ground. @50:34 Actually the fate of Poland and other central European countries was decided in Teheran 1943 in secret clauses. Not only have Churchill (and unofficially Roosevelt) agreed to so called Curzon line being eastern border of Poland (giving 48% of pre-war Polish territory to Soviets, and without compensation as fate of eastern Germany was not yet decided) but Poland was to be in Soviet sphere of influence. Moreover neither the British nor Americans notified Polish Government in Exile of this. So the next several Polish attempts to make some sort of a deal with Russians to preserve Polish independence were simply futile. If Poles were notified maybe there would not be Operation Burza and Warsaw Uprising with it's hundreds of thousands of casualties, because in light of the Teheran agreement they simply were senseless... May want to read on "Western Betrayal". This was in the video, but it needs to be repeated as often as possible: @52:54 Pilots of 303 were invited, but not as members of Polish Armed Forces but as RAF personnel. Invitation was verbal. No other Polish formation was invited: not other fighter and bomber airmen, not those fighting in France 1940, or Norway, not the defenders of Tobruk (Carpathian Brigade), not 1st Polish Corps fighting in Normandy (Falaise), Belgium, Holland (Arnhem) and Germany, or 2nd Corps fighting in Italy (Monte Cassino). Pilots refused. Some sources say there was no invitation at all for Poles, just so Stalin would not be upset. @13:34 Off course: Urbanowicz, Zumbach, Krasnodębski etc. are well known in Poland. Arkady Fiedler's book had over 30 editions, four of those during WWII by the underground Polish press. The pilots of 302 squadron, somehow absent in this video, even though they also fought in Battle of Britain are also well known. I’ve had the pleasure to meet and talk with Stanisław Skalski as he was friends with my father, due to the fact they both were imprisoned in Rakowiecka Street MPB (communist Ministry of Public Safety) prison in 1948/49.

but Poland was to be in Soviet sphere of influence. - no nie kolego - w Polsce mialy byc wolne wybory jak ustalono w Teheranie a granica na linii Curzona tak jak postanowiono w 1919 bo tam byla etniczna granica Polski - niestety Jalta w 2/45 - to Ruscy stali na Odrze ... i mozna bylo marzyc o wolnych wyborach w Polsce. Ruscy po prostu zajeli Polske a nie zostala oddana. Do tego Polska miala 3,5 dywizji na zachodzie a ruscy ponad 8 mln armie - z kim chcialbys negocjowac i jakie males mozliwosci wyrzucenia rosjan z Polski.

@user-cu1yd4zp4q First of all - I wrote in English, because that is a English speaking person's channel. The least you could do is to write your comment in the same language. As for your argument: a) "w Polsce mialy byc wolne wybory jak ustalono w Teheranie" / there were to be held free elections in Poland as per Teheran conference decision Can you provide the actual text where this was written down during Teheran conference? Somehow I do not think so, but do try, just so you might learn something. I know from several book that I've read on the subject (by Polish, British and Russian authors), that Stalin during the conference did talk about Polish Government in Exile in London as NOT representative of Polish people, accusing Home Army of collaboration with Germany and talking about "true Polish partisans" (the AL - rather small underground communist organization in Poland run by Soviet officers mostly) being killed on orders from London. I have read that he agreed to make a deal with Poles only if those in London did stop collaborating with Germany and join the fight. In short I know he lied through his teeth, and neither Roosevelt nor Churchill have made any protest or contradict him. I also know that the only talk about "free elections" was in relation to Baltic States which Staling demanded to be re-incorporated into USSR after the war. Only in this context did both "leaders of free world" voice the concern about people voting. Stalin did agree to election in those countries BUT run on the basis on Soviet constitution and without international interference. This was later used by Western Powers as a totally false argument that they tried to preserve Central and Eastern European nation’s independence. IMO, anyone who thinks that Soviet constitution guaranteed free election, even in USSR, needs to have his head examined by a professional, ASAP. b) "a granica na linii Curzona tak jak postanowiono w 1919 bo tam byla etniczna granica Polski" / border on a Curzon Line was agreed in 1919, because there was the ethnic border of Poland Right, this is so wrong on so many levels: Curzon Line was FIRST presented in July 1920, so the 1919 year is a complete mistake. Moreover Lord Curzon had very little to do with creating that line - in reality it was created by Lewis Namier - a polish Jew who migrated to UK pre WWI and was considered an "expert" in matters of Central Europe by the British. The fact is that he was politically opposed to Polish plans on re-incorporation of eastern lands. His expertise was proved to be wrong many times over, because as this map (made in 1916 on orders from German Administration) shows, there were a lot of territory east of that line inhabited by Polish MAJORITY mostly toward and around Wilno, but also near Lwów, Łuck or Równe: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/73/Mapa_rozsiedlenia_ludno%C5%9Bci_polskiej_z_uwzgl%C4%99dnieniem_spis%C3%B3w_z_1916_roku.jpg For a polish speaking person to believe that the Curzon Line actually was the border of Polish ethnic settlement is a proof of one or two things: complete ignorance on the subject or severe anti-Polish bias. Either way - you are wrong again. c) "niestety Jalta w 2/45 - to Ruscy stali na Odrze ... i mozna bylo marzyc o wolnych wyborach w Polsce. Ruscy po prostu zajeli Polske a nie zostala oddana." / Unfortunately during Jalta 2/45 Russian were standing on the Oder and one could only dream of free election in Poland. Russians simply took over Poland, it was not given to them First sentence in more or less correct - the only one in your entire statement. Second in wrong! In Yalta the agreements from Teheran were simply made public. Western Allies have ALREADY given Poland to Stalin in late 1943, months before Red Army reached eastern Poland, never mind the Oder. Here, learn something: history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1943CairoTehran/d379 d) "Do tego Polska miala 3,5 dywizji na zachodzie a ruscy ponad 8 mln armie - z kim chciałbys negocjować i jakie makes możliwosci wyrzucenia rosjan z Polski." Adding to this Poland had 3,5 divisions in the West, Russians over 8 million men in their Army - with whom would you want to negotiate and what chances of throwing out Russians out of Poland would you have Really??? You just proved you know next to nothing about politics during WWII, you know? Not to mention that I've wrote about preventing Operation Burza and Warsaw Uprising (and the slaughter that was a part of it) and you talk about some negotiating over 6 months LATER. Let's start with Sikorski-Majski agreement 1941. You know the one in which Russians agreed that Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact was null and void? The one that Teheran Agreement made a footnote to history, because our so-called allies refused to build upon it? Ever heard of it? How about Tadeusz Romer (Polish Foreign Minister in London government) attempts to reach Molotov? Prime Minister Stanisław Mikołajczyk attempts to talk directly with Stalin culminating in July 1944 visit to Moscov? Russian demands that Government in London be remade with inclusion of Communists made as early as in April 1943, ended with creation of PKWN and recognition of that puppet-quasi-government as the "proper" Polish government by the Russian in late July 1944, followed by creation of "Provisional Government of Republic of Poland" as the ONLY government Soviets would respect? Creation of PKWN was a clear sign that Soviets would not talk with Poles - they expected Poles to follow orders, period. And Churchill abandonment of Polish Government in Exile was in PERFECT accordance to what he said he would do in Teheran - abandon Poles for mere hope of some relations with Soviets. But you think in was in Yalta when Stalin mad his move ... shows how ignorant you are.

@@MarcusBrutusPL Nie chce mi sie pisac po angielsku bo to nie ma sensu 1.TAK - Nie Teheran a Jalta - moj blad W komunikacie Konferencji Krymskiej decyzje w sprawie Polski brzmiały (pisownia oryginalna, za: Polska i Wielka Brytania przed i po Konferencji Krymskiej. Dokumenty, Londyn 1946, s. 10-12): „(…)Potwierdziliśmy nasze wspólne pragnienie ustanowienia silnej, wolnej, niepodległeji demokratycznej Polski(…) Porozumienie, które zostało osiągnięte jest następujące: nowa sytuacja stworzona została w Polsce w wyniku jej całkowitego oswobodzenia przez Armię Czerwoną. Wymaga to ustanowienia polskiego rządu tymczasowego, który może mieć szersze oparcie aniżeli było to możliwe przed niedawnym oswobodzeniem zachodniej Polski. Dlatego też rząd tymczasowy, który obecnie funkcjonuje w Polsce powinien być zreorganizowany na szerszej podstawie demokratycznej przy włączeniu przywódców demokratycznych z samej Polski i z pośród Polaków zagranicą. Ten nowy rząd powinien następnie być nazwany Tymczasowym Rządem Jedności Narodowej Polski(…)” 2. 1919 - a 1920 - pisalem z pamieci 3. Burza to byla bzdurny plan bo ani AK nie mialo tyle broni ani ludzi - to byl Wishful Thinking. Powstanie Warszawskie to glupota wywolana politycznymi przeslankami. 4. Polska byla juz calkowicie pod kontrola rosyjska podczes konferencji w Jalcie. i nic nie bylo tego w stanie zmienic. Na dalekim wschodzie czekala w kolejce Japonia Nie bylo mozliwosci na zadne porozumienie z ZSRR - zajmowali i robili co chcieli a porozumienia to byly zwyklym papierem toaletowym. I nie wypisuj bzdur o polityce bo polityka byla tak silna jak silna miales armie - a armia polska to bylo zaledwie 3 Dywizje i Brygada.

I used to work for a window cleaning company in the UK, and one day I was cleaning windows for an elderly couple and the old lady came out to me and started talking to me and asked me where I from, I said that I am from Poland, then she called her husband and told him that this gentelman is from Poland. This old man started to cry and started thanking me that Polish pilots helped defend Great Britain and that he also flew with the 303 squadron and he was a pilot. My heart broke because I didn't know how to behave, and I told him that the British people still don't like us here, he said "Because they don't know how much we have sacrificed for this country" Thank you.

How much the Poles sacrificed for the UK? Are you kidding? Think about what the UK sacrificed for Poland !!! 460,000 British citizens killed in the struggle to topple nazi tyranny. The UK transformed from the richest nation in the world in 1900 into the world's largest debtor in 1945 due to being bankrupted by TWICE saving Europe from German tyranny, and the bankrupting of our nation caused the final collapse of the British Empire. Its the sort of ignorant Poles who comment in threads like this who have utterly NO appreciation of what the UK sacrificed for Poland.
