Count Ralph Smorczewski, who has died aged 84, fought in the Warsaw Uprising with the Polish Resistance before serving in the Eighth Army and then making his home in England.



Interesting Polish war history in this obituary... with names, dates and units.

Poles may have mixed feelings about the efficacy of the Uprising but no-one can doubt their defiant, never-say-die spirit. Respect from a Scot :)
