Towards the end of WW2 I was commanding a small RAF unit in the field not far from Bremen. A colleague was the squadron medical officer named Xygmund Zubryski. We visited a Displaced Persons camp to see if we could help the Polish people there who had been employed as slave labourers The Camp Commandent was a young lady, cultured and refined, who had escaped from Warsaw through the city sewers, sometimes up to her neck in human waste. This, after fighting in the streets with the resistance fighters in the Warsaw Uprising.
Zygmund married this heroine and brought her to England. He became a medical officer of health.
It would be great if I could hear news of them.
