-
So we sent a messenger to ‘Szary’, ‘Szary’ said yes.
-
He accepted us into his unit.
-
That’s how I became a soldier of the 3rd regiment of the Polish Legions under the command of 'Szary'.
-
I wasn’t a long time in this unit,
-
because the Russian front was approaching, they were already on the line of the Vistula.
-
The Germans wanted to get rid of the guerrillas and sent these Kalmuck troops to our forest.
-
On 5 November we were staying at the village of Boków
-
and on the 4th the 25th Regiment had a fight in Boków.
-
A lot of people died there. Both ours and Germans.
-
Becoming a partisan; battle against Germans
-
We got into the Chojnów forests and joined the guerrilla unit ‘Lance’.
-
A squad that came from the Zamość region.
-
Pretty well armed. We started our guerrilla life there.
-
Together with ‘Lance’ we crossed the Pilica river.

Because I could ride, and somebody from the horse patrol had just died,
-
they put me on a horse and I liked it there.
-
You know, for a 15 year old boy who suddenly found himself in a guerrilla squad and was given a horse, it was real fun.
-
Of course, it did not soothe my pain not to be in the Uprising.
-
After all my sisters were there, my mother stayed in Warsaw too, and my grandma as well.
-
And me, so far without an injury... nothing happened to me.
