Re: Red Star,1812589,Horse Scout
I think that the city name is actually Khzhanuv, which would fit the city of Chrzanów in Poland that was liberated on 24 January 1945. Can't locate "Duzha/Duzhe"(Duża), but the name also seems Polish, it's possible that it was wrongly re-written from the map - Duża/Duże (large) seems to be the part of a name rather than independant name for a settlement.
