Deportacje i represje
- Deportacja:
Deportowany od 1940-02-26 Deportowany do 1941-09-07 Kraj Rosyjska Region Archangielska oblast' Deportowany od 1941 - Opis: Zbigniew’s village was awakened in the middle of the night on February 10, 1940. At 2 a.m. the Solecki family consisting of father,(Antoni), mother(Anastazia) two brothers(Lech and Zbyszek) and younger sister(Krystyna) began their journey into exile in Siberia. They ended up just north of the Ural mountains along a major river to be used as manual labor for logging. Their destination was Arkhangelsk oblast Rowdzienski region in the 'uczastek' Camp Piudla. Due to his age Lech was tasked with gathering firewood for the barracks. What money he was paid went back to the work camp administration for the internee's meager supply of food. As was common for so many in Siberia, Lech contracted frostbite and was sent to a hospital outside of the camp. During this time his nurse mentioned in passing that she thought he would soon be leaving due to the amnesty that was declared for the deported Poles. This was a a revelation neither Lech nor anyone in the camp had heard about. It just so happened that as this conversation was going on, the camp commandant overheard and knew his secret could no longer be kept. So approximately two months later on December 24th the remaining two families and 12 other men of varying ages packed a sleigh pulled by two horses and started heading south. Their mission was to attempt to find a train to transport them to Tashkent where the army was forming. Between fighting snow storms, looking for food and waiting for trains the long and arduous trip took over on month. Once at the mustering center the family's future was uncertain. Lech's father attempted to enlist immediately but was initially turned down for being too old. That decision was soon overturned and Mr. Solecki joined the 5th Kresowa Division and was assigned to the heavy artillery. Lech and his older brother , Zbyszek, joined the 14th infantry regiment on February 13th. Almost immediately Lech contracted typhus and took two months to get back on his feet. Mrs. Solecki and her daughter meanwhile were being evacuated to Ifunda in Tanzania, the newly formed Polish displaced persons camp in Africa. The men of the family were on their own.
