Polish troops captured Monte Casino and raised Polish flag but British didn't like that so they took the flag down.
@@veles_pl Exactly like the Polish flag that was hanging from the "Sieges Seule", Berlin
Also not many ppl know how we actually got the Monte Casino monastery... it was tricky to get up the hill while nazis were shooting at you. My great grandfather said that they picked up the corpses and put them on their backs like the shields, and then they were able to climb up and fight. although it was our victory, those who came back were forbidden about talking about it. Generally ppl were forbidden to talk about Monte Casino YEARS after the fight. Even at history lessons.
@@rudarud3849 So they were using the corpses on their backs to hide with the other dead bodies yeah? if so then thats a smart move not many would think about in a moment like that
Lmao, kinda funny when you think that British flighters were lying to girls at the bar that they're Polish flighters to get laid
@@justanobody4883 not exactly to hide. They used them as shields. Back then guns didn't have as much shooting power as today, so they rarely went through a body. Boys shielded up and climbed up the hill.

Yes
@@francek3892 HVALA!
I dare to say that in US and Western Europe history of Polish war effort is largely ignored and unfortunately biased or even falsified. True information can be found in different sources but it requires some time and good will.
The truth is that you English have betrayed us. And Poles saved you.
Not the guy,but three Polish mathematicians , Marian Rejewski ,Henryk Zygalski and Jerzy Różycki ,they brake the code of enigma years before war.
Turing decoding machine was mechanized, electrificated pack of "bomba kryptologiczna" (cryptologic bomb) invented by guys above.
That was a different Enigma machine, though. It was no longer in use by 1940. The wartime Enigma was far superior and required Turing's mechanised approach to break.
@@TheSwordsPathChannel The method was the same, only combinations exponentially rise. For example today's cell-phone would decrypt all WW2 Enigma messages in few seconds. When I was young i wrote Enigma coder / encoder on Atari800XL - it works few hundred faster than all Secrec Service during the war.
@@adamkowalski1079 Encode and break the code are two diffrent things. Even the modern computers will have a lot of problems to break enigma code. But Germans make few mistakes end that give oportunity to break it. First - letter cant be encrypted as itself. second - they was lazy and make a setings like "aaa" or "qwe". Third- they encrypted similar messegas like "wether report" or : "heil Hitler" on begining of messeges.
@@danielwacek not entirely when you know how somethig was encoded you are few steps from decoding
I was never taught much about Polish history being from the United States, after visiting Poland seeing where my great grandparents had come from I dove really deep into the history of Poland. Never heard anything about the Katyn Massacre until researching the history myself.

What is common for Eastern European countries like Poland, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia during WW2?
All were used and betrayed by Britain.
The funny thing is that at Yalta meetings the french politics were invited to discuss future of Europe. French!

Remember that medieval Lithuania was more like today's Belarus
@@ogyrfiwargf everywhere in Europe was pretty wishy washy back then. I often forget there were few "nations" as we know them today.
I understand your Yałta argument, but I disagree. USSR did not liberate Poland, they enslaved us again, just like Germany before. We got nothing to say, but even Roosevelt and Churchill didn't wanted to fight not only for us but for every other eastern european country that ended under Soviet occupation. Stalin just said that he wanted this, and when his army enter this land, they won't leave it. Roosevelt wanted to create new UN organisation and needed Stalin approval, moreover he was ill this time so he lacked strenght as well, Churchill i don't know what was side, I know that he wanted to opened second front in Balkans not in France to limited USSR influence but Stalin insisted to do it quickly so they do it in France. No one aks us about it, they did the same thing in 1938 but with Hitler and Czechoslovakia's Sutety region - they abandoned us again becouse they didn't want to risk conflict wiht Stalin and want to end the war. My grandfather meet Russian soldiers who camped neer his house after they "libereted" his villige from Germans, and one of them tell him "one devil left, other came in". After war many AK soldier continued to fight agains communist but it was pointless at this point.
But more importantly, during war, when Russians entered former Polish borders, Polish AK organised Operation Tempest
("Burza" in Polish), which was series of uprasings and fighting in citys by AK when Russian forces also attacked this citys. Polish army came out from undergroud to fought with Russians against Germans in order to show Russians and world that this is our land, that we are host here and we welcome our allies in our home. But each time AK fought with Russians to libatare city, then NKWD showed up, arrested Polish officers and disarmed soldiers. Those that resisted were crushed by Soviet forces. Warsaw Uprising was part of this plan, and Russians literally stoped on the other side of Wistula River and watched people get killed by Germans and city turned to ruin. Polish airforce that was part of RAF organised a supply raids to aid Warsaw with volunteers from other countries, but Russians did not allowed them to enter their air space and used their airfields, they offten shoot down planes that entered their air space and arrest pilots who landed there. Warsaw uprising was very inconvenient for Churchill and Roosevelt, and they didn't want to aid it because they didn't want to mess with Stalin. New world order was already established and Poles fighting for freedom was agains it. They waited 30 days till they said that Polish people fighting in Warsaw were allies - before that Germans were shooting to civilians, murdering prisoners
and could treated them like bandits without worrying about after war repercussions.
I'am very impresed by your knowledge of Polish history. It's nice to see it. If you want, you could react to some Extra Credits videos about history. They have videos about sinking of Bismarck (it was mentioned here, you could also checked out Sabaton Bismarck song or Sabaton history about Bismarck) or about polish history like battle of Vienna, Defense of Poland in 1939, Warsaw uprising or many other topics from world history.
@@nikitakuznetsov8446 When did I say that USSR was responsible for failure of Warsaw Uprising?
Armia Krajowa was completely independent from Red Army and did not have to answer to or consult their actions with Red Army. They were fignting for freedom, on Polish soil in Polish city with Polish soldiers. They did not take any hostile actions towards Red Army during Uprising, nor it was aiming to harm they war effort.
But I agree that politically it was aiming to reduce Soviet influance over Poland and regain independent state of Poland. Was it something bad that they wanted to regain independence? But Stalin wanted a puppet state. The uprising was a nice surprise for Stalin, because he could just wait and watch as both of his enemy were bleeding to death, and then he could just walk in without much fight. So he did it despite that we were "allies" but both sides know that it was forced alliance and avoid any cooperation if they could, they fought with each other militarily and diplomatically. At that point Stalin had established his own puppet communist government of Poland, Polish army under command of Red Army, 1st Polish Army, and did not care about Polish govermment in exile in London. He claimed that only his was the legitimate one.
And Soviets truly watched and did nothing about Warsaw Uprising. This battle of Radzsymyn was only use as an propaganda to excuse their absent of actions. Warsaw Uprising lasted 2 months, and during this time they intentionally reorganised army outside of city, and brought to it weeker troops and others were ordered to withdraw without reason. Moreover Soviet air forces were orderd to stop any actions around the city. Nikołaj Iwanow claimed that Soviet forces were fully capable of continuing the offensive as soon as in the middle of August and could aid Insurgents. But they did not do it. 1st Polish Army was orderd to secure bridgeheads on the left side of Vistula river (only on September 16th) but weren't granted sufficed artillery fire, air support and any help of Red Army. This was just so Stalin could say that he try to help, but in reality he did not want to, and wait for insudgents to die.
Germans are fully responsible for destruction of almost 90% of the city. They could spare it after Uprising, but Hitler ordered it to be leveled. They spend a lot of resources to do this. AK alone was not able to win, their plan was based on Red Army advance, they could predict that Soviet would arrest them and force to subjugation, but they did not predict that Red Army would just stop. Stalin did not recognize Polish govermment in exile and treated AK as enemy so communication between them was very limited or almost impossible. Moreover Radio Moscow transmited in Polish a call for Uprising to help Soviet advance for few days before Uprising. Stalin claimed that Polish Underground State did not take any fight with Germans so one reason for Upirising was to show that it was not true and they were fignting with Germans.
@@nikitakuznetsov8446 Another Russian trying to rewrite history of WWII
We in Czech republic see it exactly same. Soviets didn't liberate us. They just changed one totalitarian regime for another. This is not liberation in my eyes.
@@logodok206 I am not blaming regular soldiers who were sent here to fight the germans but they commited atrocities here aswell, rapes, stealing etc. even Germans didn't do this here. I know what my grand father told me that germans treated czechs well in most of cases when they captured Czech lands. However I mostly blame Soviet government and Stalin who was not better than Hitler. He killed even more people than Hitler did.
@@mateuszpajerski6273 No, I am not rewriting anything I am simply defending the USSR from Imperialist lies and Propoganda.
Few words regarding the "Enigma quarrel" between Poles and Brits:)
There was three Polish cryptologists: Rejewski, Zygalski and Różycki. And they have decoded the enigma prior to the WW2. Enigma machine used by Germans for most of the WW2 was a little bit different, upgraded version of the thing. Also the code itself was changed few times during the war. So Alan Turing was actually working on decoding slightly different machine, and he was able to build a de-coding machine in order to deliver the information much faster.
The fact is though, that it was the Poles who broke it first, provided the understanding of the system (that was pretty much the same for whole war) and provided operational piece of the real enigma.
The reason why Poles succeeded in decoding Enigma quicker then the rest is that there were working mathematicians on it. Where the rest of the world was using linguists. That was changing all the way of thinking about decoding. If there were working more mathematicians at the very beginning then Polish maybe wouldn't be first then
@@karolinaszymanska6531 Well, but Poles (only they, not any other nation), stole the plans of enigma in 1938, so only Poles worked with it, and it made the difference, not juzt the innovation (using of mathematicians)
@@alh6255 I've made some research and that, what you say is not true. The first message was decoded in 1932. But without any knowledge about how works the machine, that couldn't reach any further. Later Poland received some information from France because they thought there're useless. Also, Poles took a photo of the civil version of Enigma. And that all information they had to build their copy of the Enigma machine. I found nowhere information about stealing plans by Poles.
@@alh6255 We didn't stole it, Brits said we stole it, because they didn't believe that such a "backward" nation can achieve such a goal. Civilian type of Enigma (used for coding trade messages) was intercepted by Polish Mail officers before war, as it was mistakenly sent to German embassy in Poland. So, Polish mail officers informed Polish inteligence of the fact and Enigma was put to pieces, studied and then reassembled exactly the same way as it was before, so Germans didn't find out about the fact, that Poles intercepted it, all was done in less than 24 hours! Then polish copy was made and our mathematicians also built decoding machine called "Bomba" (a bomb), it was called for desinformational purposes, to full Germans, that Poles are working on conventional bomb, but also because it was literary cryptological bomb, able to decode machine codes. It was the first such a machine in the world, the predecessor of today's computers. Thanks and peace. Only truth is worth anything, so dig deeper if you want to find a gem.
@@lm157 plus the copy of the enigma was then transferred to UK during the war to help Turing and his team in his work to decode the messages they retrieved - which then led to the creation of the decoding machine. This is what I read at least, I wasn't there.
Argument Stalin made is invalid. Soviets haven't fought for Poland, yes they liberated Poland from Germans, but not for free Poland but to control it and it wasn't even the main goal. Poland simply was on their way to Germany. How can you imagine defeating Germans not liberating Poland from them? To go around? The wasn't be much fuss about it if Soviets acted like Americans did with western Europe. But they didn't and it was obvious from the start, they were enemy, not ally.
True. They said "liberated", when they should say "invaded and conquered". They wanted to finish, what went wrong for them in 1920.
They wanted to make Poland their 17th republic. Did you Heard about Ribbentrop-molotov ?
With this line of thought Poland should take Monte Cassino (would be nice summer destination, btw), and part of London. Oh, and Vienna before (and why not even whole Europe? It was very important battle after all).

Zapominamy, że ,,argument" Stalina miał przekonać nie Polaków, bo oni nic dla niego nie znaczyli, tylko Roosevelta i Churchilla. I w tym przypadku spełnił rolę. Churchill faktycznie próbował oponować, bezskutecznie, ale raczej w Teheranie. W Jałcie to już niestety było po sprawie. Roosevelt był wpatrzony w Stalina jak w obraz i faktycznie wierzył, że ,,wujkowi Jo" należy się rekompensata za krew, jak wtedy obliczano, ponad 20 milionów żołnierzy. Dla Amerykanów poświęcenie Polski, Czechosłowacji, czy Jugosławii nie miało znaczenia, wciąż potrzebowali Rosjan do rozbicia sił Japońskich w Mandżurii (ponad milion japońskich i sprzymierzonych z nimi wojsk z marionetkowego chińskiego Mandżukuo). Niestety zapłaciliśmy cenę, za sytuację geopolityczną. Od 1943 roku stanowiliśmy dla aliantów raczej problem, bo oni już wtedy nie potrzebowali nas aż tak bardzo jak Wielka Brytania w latach 1940 - 1942. Patrzyli na to chłodno - potencjał sowietów był dla nich nie do przecenienia, a po początkowych porażkach Armia Czerwona już się podniosła, okrzepła - odrzuciła Niemców spod Moskwy, wciąż broniła Leningradu, zamknęła kocioł pod Stalingradem i wkrótce miała ruszyć na Łuku Kurskim. W 1943 roku losy Niemiec już były przesądzone. Pytanie było nie o to, czy będą pokonane, tylko kiedy i ile to będzie kosztowało istnień alianckich żołnierzy. Anglicy od zawsze stosowali zasadę, że będą się bić do ostatniego żołnierza... sojuszników. A Amerykanie na polu zagranicznej dyplomacji z wielkimi mocarstwami, szczerze mówiąc dopiero raczkowali. Nasza perspektywa jest oczywista - jedną okupację zastąpić miała dominacja drugiego z wrogów. Jedyne o co można było próbować walczyć i rzeczywiście spróbowano, to postawić świat przed faktami dokonanymi, stąd Plan Burza, Operacja Ostra Brama i wreszcie Powstanie Warszawskie, ale z tak zimnym i wyrachowanym graczem jak Stalin to nie mogło się udać. On mógł czekać, podciągać siły na linię Wisły, Amerykanie wciąż jeszcze nie dotarli do Renu, front we Włoszech zatrzymał się na przedpolu Alp. Stalin nie myślał o Warszawie, jego sztabowcy mieli już w głowie operację berlińską. Warszawa mogła się wypalić. W tym czasie fronty ukraińskie wsparły powstanie na Słowacji, zaczęły zajmować Rumunię i Węgry. Na tej mozaice Polska była kąskiem, który mógł zaczekać. Jedynie Jugosławia (z powodu postawy Tito, który poszedł własną drogą komunizmu, przy silnym wsparciu Brytyjczyków) oraz Grecja, którą Churchillowi udało się wyrwać z łap Stalina, ale nie udało się uniknąć wojny domowej z miejscowymi komunistami, nie wpadły w sowieckie łapy. Może nas trochę drażnić, to jak na zachodzie przedstawia się ten fragment historii, ale niestety, to wynika stąd, że oni z naszymi dziejami nie wiążą żadnych emocji, zwyczajnie dlatego, że nie muszą. My jesteśmy w innej sytuacji. Nasze położenie geograficzne zawsze wymusza na nas poszukiwanie sojuszników i choćbyśmy się nie wiem ile razy na nich zawiedli to wciąż powinna być dominanta naszej dyplomacji, ponieważ nasz potencjał nie jest wstanie przewyższyć ani niemieckiego, ani rosyjskiego, ze względów surowcowych, technologicznych, demograficznych i gospodarczych. My już nie możemy sobie pozwalać na osamotnienie.
During the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising they didn't fight to win, they fought for better death than from starving or in the concentration camps.

In Polish schools, they taught us about the Katyn massacre and said that a few years earlier, teachers were murdered for talking about Katyn. So Katyn was a taboo topic in Poland during the communist regime. That is why the Katyn massacre was not as loud as it was about camps like Auschwitz

The Polish airborne brigade was created to drop in Poland and help in operation "Burza" ang.

But English Army send Polish troops to Holland durning operation Market-Garden. Poles should help British 1 Airborne Div. In Arnhem. But Gen. Sosabowski dont get consent to airborn drop because of mistic fog in british meteorologist center. So Poles jump when it was too late to save the operation and they only can try save the rest of british troops esceaping from the city of Arnhem.
I recomand you documentary film "Honor Generała" this is about what happened with Gen. Sosabowski after operation and how he was treated by Gen. Montgomery.
In this time when Gen. Sosabowski fought in Holland his son get wounded in Warsaw Uprising and get blind. The father and son was reunited after war. Sorry for my poor English xD
No właśnie!
First of all, I'm really surprised how knowledgable you are about the Polish history.
Ok, so the clarifications you have asked for.
6:39: The battles:
- Polish destroyer "Pioruń" (Lightning) took part in the hunt and sinking of the Bismarck.
- Arnhem: Polish paratroopers under Sosabowski took part in the Operation Market Garden.
- Lenino: Polish infantry division (part of the so called Second Army, formed under Soviet supervision) took part in Battle of Lenino in '43.
- Narvik: Correct. Aside for mountain infantry three Polish destroyers: "Grom" (Thunder, sunk), "Błyskawica" (a different word for Lightning) and "Burza" (Storm) took part in the battle.
- Falaise: was not during '39 campaign, but after the Normandy landings in '44. The pivotal battle in France. Polish Tank Division alongside Canadian troops were instrumental to encircling and defeating German forces in France. General Maczek is later referenced in "the Black Devils" part.
8:10: Not about Pilecki himself. But about the so called Silent Unseen. Polish commandoes trained in the UK and paradropped to the country to cooperate with the Underground State and Home Army. Train the Home Army, coordinate tasks, and pass through intelligence back to London.
9:12: Partially about Pilecki. Pilecki was instrumental to the gathering of the information, but the raport was provided by a man called Jan Karski. He even met with Roosevelt in '42.
10:51: The sign originally meant Pamiętamy Wawer (two first letters combined, eng. "we remember Wawer"). Wawer was a political prison created by the Germans. Shortly after the meaning changed to Polska Walcząca (and most Poles know that meaning, "Poland Fighting"), the symbol was used during the occupation and during the Warsaw Uprising. It is not however in any way an official symbol of the Home Army.
12:35:
Yalta and Teheran, as you might've already gathered, while correct from that one POV (Operation Unthinkable comes to mind...) is highly controversial and is not shared by most Poles. Poles mostly think of "two treasons of WW2": '39 and '45. Some people also tie-in the suspicious death of Sikorski into that, thinking that UK assassinated (or allowed the assassination) of Sikorski as a gesture of good will towards Soviets (as without Sikorski there was no obvious figure around whom Poles would unite, and Soviet's puppet-government would never have the legitimacy while Sikorski was alive). That theory is well supported, despite how outlandish it might sound. We're still waiting for the UK to declassify the files.
you should tell about Irena Sendlerowa who help Jews :)

Interesting notes (you probably know about but for people)
Battle of britain - Polish pilots after losing their home, not knowing if even their families are still alive, being unable to go back, they joined British forces and pretty much saved them from speaking german now, after that Britain made parade to celebrate victory and they did not only didnt invite those pilots to the parade, but also made them leave the country because Britain was scared of revenge from Hitler if Polish were there especially on the parade (and of course they didnt help as later either~ :V)
Remides me when talking about Monte Casino (which is reallly interesting itself so really you should read about it)
Even Napoleon said that if something seems impossible to do, just send Poles and they will do it right away
We even had few legendary "Polish Termopylae", especially known are Battle of Wizna (300 man with machine gun and rifles versus 42k german army with 400 tanks and aircraft, they were defending for 3 days after they were made to stop it (and not because they were losing :P ) and Battle of Hodów (not WWII though :P)(400 legendary hussars (apparently most without horses) versus 40k tatars and they successfuly deffended a village)
about the P and the 'anchor', it was used pretty much by everyone to be honest, it meant P for Polska (Poland, of course) and the 'anchor' is actually from "W" letter and stands for walka/walcząca (fighting) which meant pretty much Fighting Poland and was a sign of a hope to regain our independence
but you could say it was a symbol of AK as their were starting the uprising
Allllso i feel like not many people get the reference but the 'robot' hand at 14:45 reffers to soviets as stalin was known for rulling with an "iron hand" because of being ruthless etc
WOOOW! Thanks for the additional info, really appriciate it!
"Fighting Poland" symbol was made first by "Szare Szeregi", Polish underground scouting movement, then it was incorporated by whole Home Army.
And the "Szare Szeregi" was a piece of "Związek Walki Zbrojnej" which was then renamed to "Armia Krajowa"
You meant revenge of Stalin, not Hitler :) Hitler was already dead.
We not only defended but also won the battle of Hodow 40 vs. 40 thousand
Hi, just shortly:
1. Sinking of Bismarck - famous ORP Piorun (Thunderbolt) a Napier class destroyer commissioned in 1940 for service in 7th Destroyer Flotilla. From 25th of May '41 till 27th took part in search and sinking of the German battleship Bismarck.
When the HMS Hood was sunk by Bismarck, ORP Piorun from a short distance began firing on the Bismarck tying it up in a duel, and earning time for the British navy to arrive and destroy the German battleship. The next day, the British government showered congratulations on the Polish Navy, but not one word of it was printed in the newspapers nor in books published after the end of the war.
2. Battle of Arnhem - part of the Market Garden Operation of '44. Please check Major General Sosabowski, and the Polish 1st Independent Parachute Brigade.
3. Falaise pocket, liberation of Breda etc. - 1st polish Armoured Division of General Maczek (Black Devils)
4. Narvik '40 - You got that right :) - the Polish Independent Highland Brigade (Samodzielna Brygada Strzelców Podhalańskich), but also Polish destroyers ORP Grom (Thunder), ORP Burza (Storm) and ORP Błyskawica (Lightning) took part in these operations, during which ORP Grom was sunk by German aircraft on 4 May 1940.
5. Lenino - 1st Polish Infantry Division (1 Dywizja Piechoty im. Tadeusza Kościuszki), at the Battle of Lenino, October 12, 1943.
Cheers :)
Her crew scuttled her
11:00 This is a sign of "Polska Walcząca", that mean: "Fighting Poland"
14:50 About the Yalta: Poland had its government in exile in London, but it was not allowed to return to the country, and Stalin imposed its government in Poland (through cheated elections). Poland fought on the side of the western powers throughout the war, and they gave Poland to Stalin in Yalta. That is why Yalta will always be synonymous with betrayal in Poland - you say Yalta, you think betrayal!
By the way, I'm impressed by the knowledge of Polish history. Few people know what the difference is between the Home Army and the People's Army. The People's Army consisted of Poles who did not manage to join Anders's Army. They also fought for free Poland, not for communist Poland! Only their commanders were supporters of Stalin.
Oh, one more thing. The second photo (after Yalta) probably shows the Victory Parade in London in 1946 (London Victory Celebrations). Army of all countries participating in the war against Germany paraded there. All of them, were even branches from Ethiopia, Seychelles and Fiji. There were no Poles only! Poles were one of the most numerous fighting nations on the side of the Allied forces. The English did not let them march so as not to irritate Stalin. We're not looking for treason here. We're just sad here ...
Three paragraphs - 3 x "yes"
The day on which the Polish Army Representative Company will march with our banner at the head of the victory parade will be the day of returning some honor to those who were not invited to London for the Victory Parade in 1946.
"and Stalin imposed its government in Poland" and now similar situation took place in USA at the hands of another "red" country.
They were even so blatant about It that the voteswitching was recorded on live TV. When they were still counting, the numbers were updated in real time, certain candidates had LESS votes AFTER the update, and the opposing candidates had more, one lost X number of votes and the other gained exactly the same amount at the same time.
And you're not allowed to question It, or you'll get banned...
_Nothing to see here, move along..._
also under Monte Casino fought one incredible soldier from the 22nd Artillery Supply Company.
"Wojtek" the bear who fought in Polish army and ended up his military carrer as a Corporal in his unit.

You should watch "Bloody Foreigners Battle of Britain." It delves more into what the Polish pilots contributed during the Battle of Britain and it's pretty entertaining
Thanks!
If someone want to watch something about Poland then watch ,,Dywizjon 303" its about polish people who wanted to fly in planes during ww2 in britain.
8:55 That part is about Witold Piiecki, who like you already mentioned volunteered to Auschwitz, organized resistance movement and then escaped and wrote his famous ,,Report W,, which BTW if you haven't red I do recommend it, you wont regret. But it was Jan Karski a courier of Polish Government in Exile who delivered a report about situation in German occupied Poland to president Roosevelt himself. You can read this story and also how the Polish underground state was organized and functioned in J, Karski's book ,,Story of a Secret State: My Report to the World,, personally, one of my favourite ones
We are not angry cause we ended on Eastern side of the wall. We are angry at our allies cause they didnt even tried to argue with Stalin. They took what he said for granted. Only Roosvelt tried to maintain Poland as separate state under Soviet influence. The Churchill and de Gaulle didnt even try to think about central and eastern part. All they were interested were Germans lands and industry.. And funny thing is that french collabors managed to get their own part of RFN to "protect". So thats why we are so bitter towards the West. Not only cause of our situation but also other nations like Czechs who fought with us in battle of Brittain or Hungarians and Balkans. The West were tired of war. I understand that. But we were the price. When people in Paris or Rome drunk good wines in 1960, people on East Side were still at War but other kind. But thats just my opinion.
I don't know about de Gaulle but Churchill was crazy enough to plan a "Operation Unthinkable". British empire was crumbling and Churchill wasn't getting support from Americans for another world war. but yeah, tough time polish had. evil Churchill and other allies leaders.
No, only Churchill little try not Roosevelt . Mylisz się przyjacielu Roosevelt właśnie był dogadany ze Stalinem, to churchill miał wątpliwości, ale to nie ważne w sumie i tak nic by tego nie zmieniło, tylko maly szczegół
What the fuck are you bullshit - Churchill was the one who try but had not enough power to stand against Roosevelt and Stalin.....the dick on wheal chair was a puppet in hands o papa stalin .... De Gaul wasvery interested in helping Poles regain they freedom but he was lesser to say than Churchill.....
Our “trusty “ allies offered Poland as next soviet republic and it was Stalin himself who refused this offer. He knew that Poland without even slight hint of independence will be in state of never ending uprising. Our british friends are also responsible for fact that in 1939 only 1/4 of polish army was mobilized. They knew not only that Germans will attack but they also knew about Ribbentrop-Mołotow pact and yet they have made great diplomatic efforts to prevent Poland from full mobilization. It is really true that if You have such friends You don’t need enemies.
@@wojciechpatalas6660 Nothing more to say .... Exactly.
Whether you won or lost the WW2 in the economic sense was determined not by your allegiance, but by which side of the iron curtain you ended up on. Despite all of her contributions, Poland effectively lost the war.
The "Black Devils" is General Stanisław Maczek and the 1st Armoured Division. Fascinating story, highly recommend to explore.
I recommend you the story of "wojtek". Quite interesting soldier mainly for the fact that he was a bear
Other countries have dogs for company mascots. POLAND HAD A BEAR!
And that's why I'm proud to be Polish
I dont know if someone write this already here, but one thing for remember is that Polish Army fought so well against Germany in September and October 1939, so Germany need to allocate large portion of their forces from western front to Poland to fight. And If French and Brits moved to attack Hitler on 1st Septeber 1939, WW2 will end sooner than you think. Stalin wouldn't move his troops seeing that Hilter is about to be crushed by French and Brits on western front. Remember also that Poles singlehandenly repel bolshevics in 1920 back to Russia.
French or attack. Choose one of two ;)
Arnhem was Operation Market Garden, a defeat for the Allies in September of 1944. Check it out Essek that was a battle made on bad intelligence and Polish paratroopers had some of the hardest fighting out of the allied units that day, having landed in an open. Field where they were met immediately by machine guns and German Infantry.
Considered one of the last German tactical victories in ww2
Fun fact: That "anchor" sign (W written into P) is an explication from "Polska walczy" (literally "Poland fights").
Additionally there were fun explications, like NSDAP - Nasi Są Daleko, Ale Przyjdą (Our [men] are far away, but will come).
Saying Stalin made a valid argument is the same as saying Hitler did. Don’t take the side of monsters
Utmost respect to you, sir, for caring to learn the proper pronunciation of Polish names and city names. Great job!

"I wouldn't say freed. More like under new menagment."
Mamy people I talked to and even Pilecki said that german ocupation comparing to russian ocupation was like "Disneyland".
I agree that Stalin had a point, but if enemy of my enemy is my enemy, does he help me?
5:52
- sinking of Bismarck: during search for Bismarck, polish destroyer ORP "Piorun" was part of admiral Vian's fleet and the first ship to made contact and exchange fire with Bismarck.
- Lenino (Belarus) - battle of Lenino (12-13 October 1943) was the first time 1st Tadeusz Kościuszko Infantry Division (pro-communist and not accepted by Polish Government in London) fought along Soviet forces on Eastern Front.
- Falaise: Polish forces played an important role in stopping German retreat from "Falase pocket". That led to final destruction of German forces in Normandy.
- Arnhem: 1st Polish Independent Parachute Brigade under gen. Sosabowski was a part of Market-Garden operation (as shown in a movie "A Bridge Too Far").
11:50 - actually, about 50% of Warsaw was destroyed during or just after the Uprising. Unfortunately, there were german urban plans to "rebuild" the city in a way that would change metropolis into a typical provincial town, to destroy even a memory of polish capital. Unfortunately, Soviets found those plans and decided to use them to rebuild the city after the war... and destroyed yet another 30-40% of old Warsaw during the process.
14:47 - the bitter thing with Jalta is that no polish representation was present during the conference, when the future of Poland was decided. Stalin's argument was valid (especially since USSR was in control of Eastern Europe at the time), but he actually made it valid by taking, but not acknowledging significant help Soviets got form Domestic Army during liberation of cities Vilnius and Kowno, and by refusing help to Warsaw Uprising. The whole idea of Warsaw Uprising was not to defeat Germans, but to push them out of Warsaw just before coming of Soviets, to show that "Polish people fought and liberated their capital instead just waiting for liberation". That's why Stalin decided to stop advance to Warsaw - to deprive his opponents of the most valid argument.
When you go through Warsaw there is nearly no building which stand over after uprising, people rebuild a Capitol by looking into a city plans and paints from XIX century that is why it looks like that
5:58 Battle of Falaise was a part of the Operation Overlord not the Battle of France
Lenino was a massacre btw because of USSR strategy of "combat" reconnaissance which means no reconnaissance at all
"We are waiting for you, red plague... you will be salvation welcomed with revulsion... we are waiting for you, our eternal enemy... bloody murderer of so many of our brethren.... Your red, victorious army has been lying at the bright feet of burning Warsaw and is feeding its soul with bloody pain of a handful of madmen who are dying in the ruins." "Red Plague" by Józef Szczepański
This what Poles think of their "help"
6:34 battle of Arnhem - The 1st Independent Parachute Brigade of Gen. Sosabowski took part in Operation Market Garden. Together with the British, they defended the bridge. it's This one bridge too far. Sinking of Bismarck - it is often forgotten that the Polish destroyer ORP Piorun took part in the search for Bismarck. found him first, followed him for an hour. There was even an exchange of fire. The shots from the destroyer were not significant for the bismark, but it gave courage to the ORP Piorun crew.
Battle of LENINO - 1 Polish Infantry Division Tadeusz Kościuszko and the tank division of the USSR took part there. they suffered heavy losses but broke the defense. And they could go to Warsaw
This video makes me tear up every time. My great grandfather fought under Monte Cassino
Lets face it. Polish soldiers took part in almost every single battle of WW2 xD
7:50
they were called "cichociemni"
or Silent Unseen in English
Bismark was searched by British Navy, but it was Polish destroyed which found it. Belgium was a Maczek Army, Lenino was a second army introduced in in Rushen
Regarding the letter 'Ł' 'ł', here's the tip. Read it like the English 'W'. For example Polish "ła" in Wojtyła would be read like "wa" in Waluigi.
Fun fact: This change is relatively young (100 years max). Before, we used to pronounce ł the same way, as Russians did the l.
Sinking of Bismarck: Polish destroyer ORP Piorun took very active part in the action. During night 26/27th of May 1940, Piorun was the first from group of 4 destroyers to detect Bismarck. She fired several rounds of 150 mm, but such small shells could do no harm to the battleship. Luckily she avoided hits from Bismarck.
Battle of Lenino was fought by 1 Polish Infantry Division on 12th and 13th of October 1943. Small town of Lenino was captured but division lost about 25% of the troops and had to be withdrawn for 3 months from the front.
Arnhem: In September 1944 Polish First Independent Parachute Brigade under command of gen. Sosabowski fought south of Arnhem during failed operation Market Garden.
Falaise in France: Polish troops took part in 1940 campaign in France, but battle of Falaise was fought in August 1944. 1 Panzer Division under command of gen. Stanislaw Maczek
fought there a very fierce battle. It suffered huge losses but managed to stop withdrawal of most of German forces from Falaise pocket.
Information from Auschwitz was indeed passed from colonel Pilecki but on the map route to Washington DC is shown. Information to USA was delivered by Polish courier, Jan Karski.
He was an official representative of Polish government in London. There is also an image of Irena Sendlerowa. She managed to save many Jewish children from Warsaw ghetto.
ENIGMA wasn't sent by Rejewski to UK. Entire hardware and software was handed over to British and French Intelligence on 25th of July 1939, just before German invasion.
Mathematicians Rejewski, Zygalski and Rozycki were employed at University of Poznan and decided to cooperate with Polish Military Intelligence ( Section no.2 ). Each of them contributed significantly to the general effort of solving the problem. The best material on you tube is undoubtedly a very detailed film by Sir Dermot Turing 'The real story of how Enigma was broken'
It is really worth watching.
the "p" with the hooks symbol is actualy "p" with "w" as anchor... it means "Polska Walcząca" - Fighting Poland
That "P with the hooks" is "P" and "W" stands for "Polska Walcząca" - "Fighting Poland"
Thanks for the info!
7:49 - u must check something about Krystyna Skarbek i think they are talking about her.
Ian Fleming was inspired by her story to make James Bond. sry for my language
Yes, the Armia Krajowa and the Polish Underground State did have the same symbol. It’s not surprising because the AK was apart of the Polish Gouvernment in Exile and made up the armed wing of the Polish Underground State.
You can watch also " Poland first to fight!" created by Historia bez cenzury what means History without censored
10:50 The P-W-Anchor symbol originally meant "We remember Wawer [ Massacre]" "Pamietamy Wawer," later on it came to mean "Polska Walczaca" "Fighting Poland."
More like Wola
Probably someone already answer this.. the P with a hooks is actually P with the W and it stands for
Polska Walcząca - Poland Fightning
Sorry for my english
As a Pole, thank you very much for your work and statements about the history of Poland. It is very difficult, a lot of blood has soaked into the Polish soil. I am proud of my country's history, but as a society we are still being destroyed by politicians who have devoted themselves to foreign powers for money.
We have fought, we are fighting and we will continue to fight! Peace for good people.
Hello, my name is Ula and I come from Poland. In Poland, the Second World War was very sad and truly cruel
Hello Essek
I think that You could make a video with one of our youtubers, Historia bez cenzury. He has much knowledge about polish history.
U have to have in mind that, when Soviets coming to "liberate" Poland, first they kill many pro-Independence soldiers, and people. They were fighting against Germany, but at the same time they were killin pro-Independce resistance movements. Read about "Obława augustowska" if u have a time.
They kill everyone who don't want co-operate, they give land to people and they must work if they not do it this , communist governent give you fine
To jest cała prawda o naszym narodzie.... Bóg, Honor i Ojczyzna!!!
bez boga
Yh in the Battle of Britain they were a major contributor to defending Britain. Squadron 303 had 20% of the RAF kills, nine pilots of the Squadron became aces
These are amazing animation, their history of stubborn resistance, a beautiful country that is soured by its politics today
Especially politics, the country is literally decided over this
Poland didn’t resist, but collaborated with Hitler .. she didn’t give a normal fight and killed more of the Army of the Red Army than the Germans
@@ИванКоротков-я3е What you say is a slander that be easily corrected by obvious facts:
Poles fought against the Third Reich from the very first day of the war to the last day. They fought against Hitler even when Stalin was his best ally. There were a very few collaborators in Poland and they were sentenced to death by the Polish Underground State. Even after Barbarossa, one million Russians served the Third Reich

@@ИванКоротков-я3е If Poland really cooperated with Hitler, the Europe we see nowadays would never exist (maybe even your country).
was not only Witold Pilecki, there was also Jan Karski
8:42 It was about Irena Sendlerowa
P with a hook is actually an anchor, and this is a sign of "Polska walcząca" (Fighting Poland)
Im really glad that you know about polish history, thank you
I think you should read "Władysław" like "Vwadiswav" :D
your knowledge about Polish WWII is really amazing!! I've listend to you very pleasent. Greetings from Poland! 🤍❤️
Arnhem. A Bridge to far (Market Garden)? Polish parachute brigade (of Sosabowski) send in 3 days after the fight begun and almost shot out of the skies as they landed on dutch soil outside of the city. Still they fought galantly. Lenino, is where Polish Army (im Kosciuszki) had their "Baptism of Fire" on the east front, under the soviet comman ofcourse. Suffered terrible losses, which was according to stalins plan. Still, your knowledge of our (Polish) history is awesome. And I thank you for your vids.
Poles broke enigma system, English improved it to work it fast enough. Period.
In the Arnhem i think its about general Maczek who helped the Netherlands and Belgium a lot to gain independece. In Belgium they even have a special day in order to honour general Maczek
the "p" with hucks it's mean Poland fighting
Polish - Polska walczącą
I'm pretty sure you know about Arnhem it just escaped your memory :) Its operation Market Garden. I would be surprised to know you have not seen "A bridge too far" movie. Poles were kinda forced to take part in this poorly planned operation and later scapegoated for its failure. Many interesting and inspiring stories about this operation. Like general of polish brigade riding a ladies bicycle because the jeeps and armored vehicles got dropped somewhere else, or polish soldiers swimming across the river back and forth in freezing cold under german fire to relay messages because radios were not working. Haven't seen the movie in a while but I remember it being somehow good and with a stellar cast.
The warsow was more Dystroy than London.
the symbol P with hooks is P+W wich means "Polska Walcząca" (Poland still fights) was symbol painted on the walls for the people to know, that we will not surrender
8:00 part of the counterintelligence operation was hauling all the documentation of V2 rockets and an operational missile in parts to Allies (Operation "Most III" or "Bridge III"), so the Allies can study it and develop countermeasures against bombardment of British cities.
And about battle of Arhnem - tere is a hollywood movie - "one bridge to far " where gene Hackamn says "Lina" :P
Battle of Lenino was a batlle between Axis forces and Polish (Soviet Aligned) 1st Infantry Division led by Zygmunt Berling. This was also one of the most bloody battles for that unit. After that battle Stalin gave green light to recruit even more Poles into Polish People's Army which eventually took part in most important battles in the Eastern Front during 1944-1945. Some formations of this army also were fighting in Berlin.
Sinking the Bismarck - ORP Błyskawica nad Piorun were shooting at it . In fact Piorun was the one to detect it first and fire the first salvos . Also they torpedoed it but with no hits. It was a hunt for Bismarck after the HMS Hood was sunk by a big blow from magazine detonation after receiving a 380mm projectile from Bismarck. Bismarck then ran away and the Poles with the British were looking for it in the Atlantic.
Bismarck was firing back but not hitting the ships.
Lots of knowledge about Poland!
P with an anchor is the letters P and W - "Polska walcząca" ="Fighting Poland" .
The 1st Polish Parachute Brigade commanded by General Sosabowski fought in Anhem. Watch "A Bridge Too Far" (1977) 😀
Maybe I watched it too late but when it comes to "P with an anchor" ( 11:00 ) it means "Polska Walcząca" which symbolizes hopes for regaining independence.
P with the hooks is the sing of fighting Poland. Mostly used by Armia Krajowa.
10:46 This emblem stands for 'Polska Walcząca' ("Fighting Poland") en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kotwica
Thanks for the info!
The sign you see while talking about the Warsaw uprising includes 2 signature letters od the words ,,Polska Walcząca" what means Fighting Poland. This sign was a simbol of fate in polish victory and it comunnicates that polens are not giving up without a fight.
The battle of Arnhem was a major battle during Operation Market Garden. Polish paratroopers were dropped as reinforcements for the Red Devil’s. Also a Polish Destroyer took part in the Hunt for the Bismarck, and was present at its sinking.
'P with hooks' sign - 'PW' - 'Polska Walcząca', you can describe that as sign of polish insurgents, literal translation of sign is 'Poland fighting'
10:41 that sign means Polska Walcząca which means Poland fighting the sing is the letter P-Polska walcząca and the hooks are a part of a W-walcząca
9:14 Pilecki as well but mostly Jan Karski who prepared a detailed report about concentration camps and showed it to Roosevelt in 1942 - the president didn't believe Karski
That P sight with "hucks" it stands on words " Polska Wlacząca "
which simply means Poland on Fight or Poland is Fighting
which actually meant a lot more to us or them back then
it was a sight to say , we still here! , still alive!, not giving up and fighting back! to the last one!
Great job, thank you that you are talking about our history. I am Polish and I am proud of it.
10:57 (PW) - a symbol in the shape of an anchor, the P-shaped part of which symbolizes Poland, and the arms of the letter W - the fight or "anchor" - a symbol of hope for regaining the independence of Poland occupied by Nazi Germany. Widely used during World War II.
the "P with the hooks" is actually "P" over "W" where the "P" stands for "Poland" and the "W" stands for "Fighting"
P with the hooks means "Polska Walcząca" ("Fighting Poland")
The p with hooks its call ‘’ polska walczaca ‘’ mean poland fighting
The soldier getting swatted away by the machine at 16:03 represents the remnants of the armed resistance, the Nightcrawlers (Cichociemni), and how they've been trapped behind the iron curtain and hunted down over the years, basically to the last man. After false amnesty of 1947, when communists convinced majority of the underground fighters to lay down their arms, then just killed them all, organised armed resistance to the regime virtually stopped existing. Depressing stuff, really. Some of the mass graves still haven't been located.
I would like to add that russian "liberation" looked like: russian soldiers raped polish women and their generals ensured that every soldier took part in it so they would not be able to tell about it to anybody. They were also stealing all valubles. The most common thing you could have heard from russian "liberator" was: "Give me your watch!". You can actually see on the pictures of these soldiers that they have more than one watch.
The Kotwica was a World War II emblem of the Polish Underground State and Armia Krajowa (Home Army, or AK). It was created in 1942 by members of the AK Wawer Minor sabotage unit, as an easily usable emblem for the Polish struggle to regain independence. The initial meaning of the initials PW was Pomścimy Wawer ("We shall avenge Wawer"). This was a reference to the Wawer massacre (26-27 December 1939), which was considered to be one of the first large scale massacres of Polish civilians by German troops in occupied Poland.
So, sinking of Bismarck is the story starting with... the Polish Destroyer ORP Piorun (Lightning). It was on duty protecting convoys and then it was incorporated into the operation "Western Approaches" whis was an operation to find and destroy Bismarck. Piorun was the first to spot Bismarck on the sea. It took up chase, made contact and engaged the German battleship. It exchnaged fire with the bigger ship for...wait for it, an hour, while simultaneously pinging its location to other allied ships. When bigger and heavier allied ships, led by the UK's HMS „King George V” joined it retreated from the direct fire exchange but still took part in recon and ultimately they sinked the german monster of a ship:)
WWII started at about 1:20 at the border post in Jeziorki near Piła (Greater Poland Voivodeship).
I need to say I watched severeal of clips like that (reactions of people throught the world) and you are the one with So much knowledge about my country. Respect and Thank you!
