Kyle, I believe it is him. I did get copy of his military file but the problems are that, I can not translate Polish and the handwriting is quite bad. I have asked my father to translate it but he couldn't. Apparently he is mentioned in history books but I have not found anything yet.
Oldleg. If you ever want to see what your grandfather got up to with the 3 Carpathian Division at Cassino, I am guiding a group there on 17-20 May 18. You are welcome to join the group. Regards Frank Guide www.cassinobattlefields.co.uk
