We had this messenger ‘Malina’, in the village of Bieliny, who knew everything going on in the vicinity
-
and ‘Malina’ told us of a large unit searching for a much larger one.
-
There were some 150 people under the command of lieutenant ‘Lech’, Stanisław Degórski.
-
This was a unit from the Lublin region. How did they end up here?
-
First, allegedly, they reached Kampinos, and later, after the Kampinos group
-
got defeated near Jaktorow they moved to our forests.
-
And they established contact with us.
-
With this unit we fought at Zdzary, near Drzewica.
-
Two people died there. Kalmucks attacked us there.
-
Two days later some mines exploded when they dropped out of a wagon.
-
The next wagon rode on them and they exploded. Two more men were wounded. People got mad.
-
Nearby the ‘Szary’ unit was stationed. They did not want to return to the 25th regiment.
-
Each platoon had its own representatives and they demanded from the command to agree their accession to the ‘Szary’ unit.
-
Well, naturally, if ‘Szary’ agreed.
-
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.
