Only German care is
visible whereas Polish care
remains invisible. Sophisticated manipulation sells out
German care as Polish one.
THE GRAVES OF POLISH SOLDIERS IN GERMANY ARE SPREAD OVER
IN ABOUT 600 PLACES
CONTRARY TO THE REGULATIONS OF GENEVA CONVENCES OF 1949 RATIFIED BY POLAND.
600 NECROPOLISES LEFT WITHOUT INTEREST, SO
CALLED ‘POLISH CARE’ WITHOUT ANY DOCUMENTATION, ORGANISATION OR COORDINATION.
AT LEAST 90 %
OF Polish forces graves in Germany need Polish
intervention.
Year 2003 we
are waiting for the first visit of a Polish Member of Parliament in Polish
forces necropolis in germany Our „pantheons of glory” in Germany are in fact M O N T E r u b
b i s h
Within 13 years we have been tirelessly and without any
visible effect informing about tragic and scandalous standing of soldiers buried
in Germany of 1st Polish Armoured Division, prisoners of war of 1939
and Home Army(AK) ( in
other words “Dead Bodies” of Polish Forces). Our effort has been like marching
through the “Polish gutter.”
We have been informing about the gravestones of
the Polish Forces with Wehrmacht insignias on them, devastated graves under a bench or commentary
path, weathered or illegible inscriptions under the Soviet Army cemetery lawns. We have also notified that instead of
being buried at military cemeteries, Polish soldiers rest
scattered thoughtlessly at cemeteries for “Zwangsarbeiters”
people of different nations and sexes.
The graves without military
inscriptions, often without names, nicknames.
Only voluntaries have been searching for and
have successfully found the lost graves of their friends. What has Polish
administration done about it? NOTHING
Who could guess that among Igor and Natasza a
Mr. CTOVSACKI appears to be st. drg. Kwaśniewski Kazimierz pseudonym Głowacki,
10 P. Drag, that PROTACIEWIESS is in fact
uł. Narloch Edmund, pseudonym Protasiewicz, 24 P. Uł., that PINCOSCHI Bruno is
drg. Ochantel Brunon, pseudonym. Pinecki, that GOVAL is st. drg. Góral Piotr, 10 P. Drag.,
that LEONTOWSKI is chor. Cybuchowski Leon,
8 Bat. Strz., that SYBROWSKI Casimir is
sierż. Szymborski Kazimierz, 11 Komp. Sap. etc. our Reports from 1991
Without spiritual care. Since the end of World War II, without any interest, a Polish flower
or candle. Who of MPs of People’s Republic of Poland or representatives of
Polish Forces has appeared there? Scandal has been glossed over for years
and reports manipulated by officers
of national
memory and MARTYDOM COUNCIL (Rada Pamięci Walk i Męczeństwa).
How is it possible that the Germans can look after their graves? They have
been able to find the remains of their war victims even in Stalingrad and they
have also established their military cemeteries
in Poland.
It has been already founded the 8th
cemetery for 100,000 dead German
soldiers. And WHERE are
Polish military cemeteries in Germany? Scandal is being concealed.
Suppose that soldiers of Polish Forces rest in
Germany in over 600 PLACES and existing
embarrassing documentation does not deserve to be called an evidence. Any
Polish institution
is unable to establish at least approximately how many military objects of
National Memory we posses in Germany,
so called Pantheons of Glory. Under such
circumstances is it possible to look after the graves of Polish Forces?
„Documentation concerning Polish Forces war
prisoners buried in Germany in 1939 is embarrassing for those who handed it over, received and signed it.”
In1993
we filed a complaint to the Polish Republic Parliament. We addressed it to SEVERAL HUNDREDS of Members of Parliament. Only nine of
them answered.
Politicians seem to be
interested in Polish soldiers as far as the dead are not mentioned. It is a common
knowledge that dead bodies cannot gain them any profit. So they limit their promotion
of Polish issue to effective and spectacular remarks about Polish soldiers
fighting on international battle-fields. Such an attitude may be traced in the address
of Cimoszewicz / former history researcher of WKP(b) / who writes in NATO Review,
April 1996:
“ Several times in
the past the Poles showed that they were excellent soldiers – they proved that
fighting at British, Canadian and American side during the Second World War .” Yet, when a representative
of PSL – Marian Michalski – appealed the prime minister
Cimoszewicz in June 1996 saying that the dead Polish soldiers rest in Wehrmacht graves Cimoszewicz did
not answer, remaining adamant. Did not the appeal concern those “excellent soldiers” praised by Cimoszewicz? His contradictory
attitudes prove that being a politician is the dirties profession in the world.
As early as 1994, after a few years of
ignorance, veterans
protested by Wehrmacht graves of their
friends with banners with a following inscription:
“god – honor – FUHRER” and “Homeland –SIEG HEIL” Such
disgrace would be impossible to bear by any civilized country but our statesmen
managed to put up with it.
September, 1 2003 Notice: - SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT
Appeared a letter from Ministry
of Art and Culture Znak DDN/1982/03 of
June,10 2003

accordance with the regulations of Geneva Convences.”
“Graves of Polish soldiers in Germany
are subject to special
care of institutions acting on behalf of Polish authorities.”
AND

are expressing their gratitude for “special care” towards Homeland.

There are also some of the best professional patriots on the list, who love showing off.
Moreover we have informed about the scandal the
following institutions: Kancelaria Prezydenta, - URM, - Sejmu, - Senatu, MSW,

Zw. Polaków „ Rodło„w Niemczech, TVP „ Polonia
„ , „ Polsat „ ,Światowy Związek AK and
many other veteran and Polish
communities organizations.
President’s Office sent us the instruction that
pursuant to Polish Constitution the president of RP IS
NOT ALLOWED TO intervene in such matters. It seems that according to Polish Constitution only a Polish
farmer selling potatoes at the market may be interested in protection of Polish
graves. Whereas the supervisor of the Polish Forces has known for years that Polish soldiers rest in
graves of Wehrmacht without inscriptions of Polish Forces under a Soviet lawn
etc. etc.etc. VIVE LA POLOGNE !
In the Polish and foreign nwespapers appeared articles
dealing with the issue:
„Prawo i Życie „ „Gazeta Robotnicza „–„Gazeta Wrocławska „/a few times/ - tyg. „ NIE „ /1994/- „Trybuna „/ kilkakrotnie/ - „Trybuna Sląska „ - „Głos Wybrzeza” - „Gazeta Pomorza „ - „ Gazeta Wyborcza „- „ Słowo Polskie „ – Gazeta Krasnostawska „ - „ Gazeta Lubuska „- „De Stem „ - Holandia , „Wolny Głos „ - Belgia, radio „ Deutsche Welle „ -„ radio Maryja „- „ Kurier Kowarski „ – „ Angora „ – „Tygodnik Zamojski „- „ Fakty i Mity „ and many others.
Among the others the following newspapers have
not dealt with the subject:: London „ Dziennik Polski „ - „ Kombatant „ – „ Polska Zbrojna „ , „
Wojska Lądowe „ – „ Polsce Wierni
„ „ Głos Kawalerii Pancernej „ -
11 DKP w Żaganiu (an heiress of the 1st Polish Armoured Division
tradition has not looked into their graves in Germany)
In the House of Parliament ineffectively appealed to the prime minister
and to National Memory Council the following: amb. Janusz Reiter (1994), prof. Marian Żenkiewicz, Stanisław
Kucharski (both appeared in Senate), prof. Aleksander Małachowski, Dorota
Kempka, Dorota Dancewicz, Dobrosz, sen. Henryk Rot (†) w r.1993, Ryszard
Zając, Ryszard Jarzembowski (a few times), min.B.Piwnik, Artur Zawisza (PiS),
Marian Michalski (PSL) who appeared in Seym and twice appealed to the prime
minister Cimoszewicz pointing out that the graves of Polish
soldiers have Wehrmacht inscriptions.
The following appealed
to Polish government on the side of veteran organizations, veterans and
supporters of 1st Armoured Division.

Just to remind you We are talking about the faith of the POLISH soldiers who died for POLAND and had never asked HOW MUCH?
We are talking about
POLISH soldiers who are refused to be buried in
accordance with the regulations of the Geneva Convenes of 1949 ratified by
Poland.
We are talking about
the graves without military inscriptions withdrawn from the British cemeteries.
The major opponents of founding
thePolish Forces necropolis in Germany
are the officials of “Rada Ochrony Pamięci Walk i Męczeństw”(National Memory
and Martyrdom Council)
We are talking about Polish soldiers who are refused the appropriate military
honors.
We are talking about soldiers of Polish Forces(WP) and Home Army(AK) in Soviet and Wehrmacht tombs regarded as„ Zwangsarbeites ” of different origin and sexes, scattered
in over 600
places in Germany
( Who cares? )
We are talking about Polish soldiers and women from AK who died during
the Warsaw Uprising buried under a Soviet commentary in OBERLANGEN.
We are talking about the buried soldiers of 10 P. Dragonów in Cloppenburg,
whose tombstones were destroyed ,our reports
since 1993.
We stopped after being informed by URM and President’s
office (plk.LWP Dukaczewski ) that the Germans “plant flowers there,” Here płk. Dukaczewski –
a graduate of the Moscow Woroszyłówka
Academy – apparently mistook Lenin
Mausoleum for falling apart Anders’ Army soldiers.
We are talking about the graves of the
Polish Forces tombs WWITHOUT POLITICAL
DEMAND
We are talking about Polish soldiers who in defense of
Homeland attacked German tanks on
horses armed with rifles. They had never asked how much would it have cost, contrary to today’s standards.
The Country which does
not take care of dead soldiers has not right to let citizens wear uniforms.
Making use
of the dead is nothing else like making profit out of spilled blood.
political
propaganda in exchange for dead bodies is a specific form of “hyenezem”
The graves of the Polish Forces in Germany appear to be the exhibition of Polish culture. We
invite you there.
Polish Forces build in Poland German Cemeteries
with DOLLARS. The only capital of our dead ones is honor.
Ministry of Defense spends 30.000 $ for one living soldier /statistical data/. For the dead who
died in agony in defense of their Homeland a gravestone in a form of
cobblestones worth 1.5 $ should be enough.
With 100 years amortization, the annual
expenditure equals 1.5 cents – which is
far cheaper than the cost of a bullet.
The cost of building a Polish Forces cemetery in Germany amounts at half
the price of a tank.
Dividing half the price of a tank by the number of graves in Germany (approximately 3.000 graves) the value of the
life equals - 1.500.000 PLN : 3.000 =
500 PLN.
Quotations – spiritual fare for the naive
Any graves will not
be forgotten–These are the graves of the most faithful sons of Poland.– Monuments of history which belong to the treasury
of National Glory. Let’s show our respect and gratitude – Strengthen their position in the Pantheon of Glory – They
will always remain in our hearts.
– They fulfilled their duty towards their Homeland and paid the highest price. But it
turns out that those “Pantheons of glory” are just cobblestones.
Meanwhile most of the graves have been waiting for over half a century for the first Polish flower or candle. They have been waiting for their first honor. But the representatives of the Polish Army prefer to escape and avoid the graves of their companions in Germany.
”Monte Cassino” is not
the same as ”Monte
Rubbish”
Even Polish Forces “have deserted” ( Śląski
Okręg Wojskowy ) and avoided a visit at graveyards of the 1st
Armoured Division in Germany.
Whom does the Polish Forces honor? Here are some
quotations from newspapers . “... October, 5 2002, Polish
soldiers took part in ceremony of consecration of the German graveyard in Nadolice
Wielkie near Wrocław...” Note, that there were also buried SSmen, gestapo, and even warders from
Oświęcim concentration camp as well as SS
Galizien Brigade, which pacified in Zamojszczyzna and from SS Dirlewanger Brigade from Warsaw Uprising.
Polish Forces soldiers helped to build that graveyard.
WHICH UNIT OF POLISH FORCES TAKES MORAL CARE OF THE GRAVES OF THE 1ST ARMOURED DEVISION AND POLISH
FORCES OF 1939 IN GERMANY?
WHICH VETERAN ORGANISATION FEELS RESPONSIBLE TO TAKE CARE
OF THE GRAVES OF THE POLISH PRISONERS OF WAR FROM 1939?
WHICH POLISH ORGANISATION IN GERMANY TAKES MORAL CARE OF Polish forces graves in Germany?
Questions – for years without answers from the spokesman of the citizens’ rights office
The Act of January, 28 on ”National Memory and Martyrdom Council”
Art. 3(3)
– the estimation of care about the places and solid objects of national memory,
especially monuments, cemeteries and military graves.
Questions :
a) and what does this estimation say
about the Polish prisoners of war buried in Germany?
b) which steps have been undertaken
to fulfill the conditions of Geneva Conventions regulations of 1949?
Extract from the complaint to the Citizens’
Rights Office spokesman Sign: W/Z : 125532/I/HG of 20.10.1993, 11.02.94 and of 05.01.2000
..... Polish Forces soldiers deserve
the honorable burial in Germany pursuant to regulations of Geneva Conventions of 1949
Unfortunately these regulations
have never been respected by Poland nor enforced from German government. We deal with the conscious violation of
Polish soldier’s rights with acceptance of Polish administration.
Regulations of Geneva Conventions impose duties of:
- gathering graves according to nationalities – which
means that at Polish Military Cemeteries such regulations have not been
fulfilled.
Gravestones should have
the following personal data:
1. Military rank 2. Name 3.
Date of birth and death 4.
Name of Military Unit
IT is obvious THat Poland
has blot out the memory of prisoners
of war of 1939 buried in Germany. Who cares about the lost graves? what has
been done in the West about it? We demand the close look on our cemeteries without
manipulation of the Polish officers.
Politicized “Care”
for
“PLACES of MEMORY” has always been our nightmare.
WE should change so
called German-german commissions of
graves and clear it of carrier makers.
We are waiting for the
first visit of representatives of Polish Parliament and of course members of the Polish Forces.
We ask Professional
advocates of patriotism to start from themselves.
Our
situation is becoming more and more dramatic – we are decaying very quickly. What
will happen when we are not here?
That is why
we address the general public and call for help. We
especially want to appeal to young people.
There will
not be an escape from patriotic responsibility
The initiative of the former soldiers of 1st Armoured
Division now living in Germany
