MORE NAMES - INFORMATION NEEDED

Here is another batch of Polish Airmen for inclusion in the tribute site. Some of them have a lot of military information but nothing personal about their lives before or after the war. As previously stated, I want to show them as human beings and not just fighting men. They have all earned a place in this site, but name, rank, number and date of birth is a poor tribute. If you can help with information and/or photographs, copy documents etc., please contact me on the following email address: nevillebougourd@gmail.com Please DO NOT leave a message in the comments section as these are posted anonymously and I cannot reply by email. Any reply can only be posted as a comment by me and relies on you seeing it and replying to me by email.

JEWISH AIRMEN

This is a completely secular tribute to the Polish airmen in exile - a hero is a hero regardless of his religion.  However, I cannot help but note the lack of information that is forthcoming on the many Jewish airmen who were a part of the PAF in exile.  I would like to include these men in this tribute but the only information available is gleaned from official sources and gives no flavour of the person or his personality.  The one exception came from the family of a Catholic friend of a Jewish airman.

I would really like to honour these men who, by virtue of their religion, took even greater risks escaping through territory controlled by Nazis or their sympathisers.  Those who were captured faced a greater risk of maltreatment, torture and murder.  Even Jerzy Tomasz Mondschein, one of the 50 executed escapees in the "Great Escape" from Stalag Luft III at Sagan (now Zagan), has very little written about him.  Does anyone know his life story?

Can I appeal to the Jewish community for information on these brave men who also deserve to be remembered for their courage, their patriotism and their contribution to the war effort.  

THE MISSING HUNDREDS

I have been reviewing my unused notes and I am beginning to reaalise just how many of the brave Poles of 304 Squadron are unaccounted for.  Each and every one of them deserves a place in this tribute but it is so difficult when there is just no information.  So far I have picked up 132 names and I have not yet completed the letter C!  If any one reading this can help with any information/photographs/documents/press cuttings on any of them, please contact me on nevillebougourd@gmail.com but please leave a contact email number!

The first 132 names are listed below and I will publish more as I retrieve them.
