Soviet and soviet/polish partisan groups...
...not to be mistaken with AL/GL partizans.
Here's the story: I have recently aquired a group of items (mainly photographs) related to soviet and soviet/polish partizan movement in the eastern part of Poland (taking post-war borders under consideration that it) - probably remains ofsome old exhibition. This group includes: 23 photographs - Partizans during the war, after it and one showing banner awarding ceremony (?) in Poland in late 50's(?) of unknown relation to the rest of them. 1 Educational map - showing partizan actions 1944-45 in Poland (50's) 2 Maps of istern poland - cut from some german newspapers - of unsure relation to this group. 1 1944 dated document, testyfying that a female private is the member of "Kostus Kalinovski" (no idea who the guy was) Partisan brigade. 1 nice, but unfortunately ripped-of ribbon bar - with Virtuti Militai 5th class, partisan cross, gold cross of merit and Victory and freedom bars, missing probably wound badge and 3 more awards. My question: 1.Where can I find some info on partisan units from this group ("Kostus Kalinovski" and "Dzierżyński" Brigades)? I have tried in a library, but for some reason polish history books from before 1989 cover only AL/GL partisan groups and there seems to be nothing published on that topic after 1989. I would prefer some info on the net, or at least some book that (supposing it would be in russian) may be available in Ukraine. |
