Polish - British mounted group
Here is an interesting mounted group with combined Polish and British decorations, unit badges etc. From a Polish soldier based in England with the government in exile forces.
By the medals you can see that he was a veteran of the Italy campaign and fought at Monte cassino. The Polish awards are from left to right: Cross of valour (Krzyz Walecznych) with the Government in Exile during WW2 ribbon (reversed colours). Cross of Merit with Swords (Krzyz Zaslugi z Mieczami). Army Medal for War 1939-1945 (Medal Wojska za Wojne 1939-1945). Polish Armed Forces in the West Military Action Cross (Krzyz Czynu Bojowego Polskich Sil Zbrojnych na Zachodzie) with Monte Cassino bar. Monte Cassino Cross (Krzyz Monte Cassino). The British awards are from left to right: 1939-1945 Star. Italy Star. Defence Medal. War medal. Eddie.
