Description |
English: The Polish Army in the Middle East, 1941-1943
These pictures show Polish boys who recently arrived from Russia in a camp in Palestine going through their daily routine. All are given training in military matters and the older boys are learning the use of small arms. Though most of these boys are either separated from their parents or lost them in the Soviet captivity, they seem happy enough and are tremendously keen on their work. The photographs almost certainly are of the Young Soldiers Cadet School (Junacka Szkoła Kadetów) in Bashshit, Palestine. The school operated between 1942 and 1948, released 1276 cadets of whom 440 joined front line units. The school formally was a part of the 3rd Carpathian Rifles Division (2nd Polish Corps). |

[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
