Hello! Thank you for watching! Next video will take a while (By that I mean most likely more than 2 weeks) as I'll be going away on vacation, but it should be a nice one :)

0:58 Small correction, Poland never officialy surrender to Germany, germans occupied Poland with soviet and polish soldiers keep fighting as partisants and everywhere else they could.

[@DiscoverHistoryEU]

You are 100% correct. The Polish government technically never actually surrendered and partisan activity continued throughout the whole war, but besides a formal letter Poland was capitulated.

[@piotrd.4850]

0:48 - Germany never officially declared war and Poland as whole never surrendered to the Germans.

[@AndrzejKucza]

Poland did not surrender during WW2. On the 6th of October, the last regular army unit on the Polish soil surrendered but not Poland themselves.

where can one get a medal like that? would it be available to the foreign legion ?

[@DiscoverHistoryEU]

Hey! Etsy might be worth taking a look and a quick google search revealed some Polish shops selling it. As for being okay with the foreign legion, I can’t answer with certainty, but it should be fine? Its not political or offensive in any way
