I know a retired Canadian Brigadier General who did his PhD on the Polish Normandy campaigns. I'll see if I can contact him.

Hi Adrian,

I don't have anything on Polish tank losses but there is a file on World war 2 Talk.

Just type in Tank casualties in the search box. The files cover mainly British losses but there are a few Canadian references.

Cheers
