Bronislaw was involved with 3 x Armies during the course of WW2 (in Poland, England and U.S.A.)- starting out originally as a Korpus Ochrony Pogranicza (K.O.P.) Officer in Poland (Dederkaly) in 1939 with the position of Plutonowy, then captured by the Germans in late Sept / Oct. 1939. Bronislaw after his escape in 1942 and until his final involvement with the U.S.A. Army used "various names" or aliases for his own safety, for fear of German re-capture and identification of his family.
