Gallery – Forever in the West

This photograph was taken in the early 1990s when my father Wladek was reunited with his uncle Staszek. They had not seen each other since my father was a child in Wołyn. Wladek was deported from Rowne to Siberia in April 1940 and after release with Anders Army joined the Polish Navy, settling in Scotland after the War. Staszek, from Krzemieniec (my father's mother's brother) fought in the September 1939 campaign in the 43 Pułk Piechoty in Dubno. In 1944 he was enlisted in the 1st Polish Army (Berling's Army under Soviet command). He fought right through the campaign and the Battle of Berlin and was highly decorated for bravery. In 1946 he was "repatriated" with his family (his wife and children chased from their home by UPA) to Legnića in Silesia.
