Polish Aces of World War 2
Book 47 of 96: Aircraft of the AcesLanguage: English
Published by Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, GB, 1998
ISBN 10: 1855327260 ISBN 13: 9781855327269
Paperback. Condition: New. Pilots of the Polish Air Force saw action from the first day of World War 2 until the final victory in Europe in May 1945. Flying hopelessly outmoded P.11 fighters in defence of their country in September 1939, a handful of pilots inflicted serious losses on the Luftwaffe before being overwhelmed. The survivors escaped to then neutral Hungary and Romania, before being ordered to France by the new C-in-C of exiled Polish Armed Forces, Gen Sikorski. With the invasion of Western Europe by the Germans in May 1940, the surviving pilots were once more thrust into action in newly-formed Polish units, but again defeat ensured. A number of men then fled to Britain, where they were posted to either frontline Fighteer Command units or to generic squadrons formed in July/August 1940. The Polish pilots/squadrons made a significant contribution to the victory of the Battle of Britain, and from that foundation, these squadrons went on to see much action not only in Western Europe, but also in North Africa.Almost 60 Polish pilots achieved ace status with the RAF, with men like Skalski, Urbanowicz, Horbaczewski, Gladych and Zumbach achieving scores well into double figures flying famous Allied types like the Hurricane, Spitfire, Mustang and Thunderbolt.

Poles in Defence of Britain (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Grub Street Publishing, London, 2016
ISBN 10: 1910690155 ISBN 13: 9781910690154
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Fifteen years since it was originally published, Grub Street is proud to present the re-issue of 'Poles in Defence of Britain'. To the Polish volunteers who were to fly and fight so brilliantly and tenaciously throughout the Battle of Britain, the United Kingdom was known as 'Last Hope Island'. Many lost their lives, such as Antoni Ostowicz, many achieved glory and became aces such as Glowacki, Skalski and Witorzenc. The RAF came to depend on these men, with over 100 Polish pilots supporting almost thirty fighter squadrons, most especially 302, 303 and 307 (night fighter). The result of years of research, Robert Gretzyngier's book includes detailed combat descriptions, personal accounts from combat reports, memoirs, and diaries from the Polish, British and German perspective. There is in-depth biographical data of all Polish pilots, giving full RAF and PAF careers and much tabular material in appendix form. This book is a tremendous account of their contribution in those hectic days before the RAF began to take the offensive across the Channel. REVIEWS: "An exhaustive record of the heroic actions of the Polish pilots who escaped to Britain and helped ensure its survival." - Pennant "The result of many years of research, sharp and comprehensive, the text is supported by an excellent selection of rare photos." - Air Mail "There are detailed combat reports, much biographical data, 200 photographs and tabular material in appendix form. The bravery of these pilots and at times their reckless determination made them a force to be reckoned with. They inspire huge affection; this book does them proud and is an excellent commemoration of them." - Cross & Cockade International Grub Street is proud to present the re-issued Poles in Defence of Britain. To the Polish volunteers who were to fly and fight so brilliantly and tenaciously throughout the Battle of Britain, the United Kingdom was known as Last Hope Island. The RAF came to depend on these men, with over 100 Polish pilots supporting almost thirty fighter squadrons.
