Three Brothers from Canada lay a Wreath in Poland

11/22/2018

"We are three brothers from Canada who came out here on our own to honour these men. We were moved by the sacrifice of the First Polish Armoured division under General Stanislaw Macjek who held Mont Ormel, closed the Falaise gap and ended the campaign in Normandy. It was a heroic action on the part of the Poles.

We are laying a wreath honouring the 250,000 Poles who fought in the second world war - who helped to win that war - on land and on sea and in the air. It was a remarkable achievement."
