And now something from my collection of the interviews with the WWII veterans. Writing the article and a book on various aspects of the Canadian-Polish relations and cooperation at Normandy and being intrigued by Ken Tout's text I asked for the comment ex-tanker of the Polish 1st Armoured Division, 2nd Lt. (ret.) Willie Glaser. He was a loader/signaller in the Cromwell tank codenamed "Barbara 2" that belonged to 1st Squadron of the 10th Mounted Rifles Regiment we discussed here. Willie Glaser lives in Canada today but he uses in his interview the Polish name of the Regiment so for your information "10. PSK" means 10th MRR.
Would you like to comment it additionally?
Best regards
C.
