It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of two distinguished military leaders, General Władysław Anders and Colonel Otton Hulacki, whose lives and legacies have profoundly shaped the course of history.

Obituary of  General Władysław Anders

General Władysław Anders, a stalwart of the Polish Army, passed away on May 12, 1970, in London. Born on August 11, 1892, in Błonie, Poland, Anders is remembered as a symbol of resilience and patriotism. His military career, marked by bravery and strategic brilliance, spanned both World Wars and the interwar period.


During World War I, Anders served with distinction in the Russian Imperial Army. Following Poland's resurgence as an independent nation, he became a key figure in the Polish-Soviet War, showcasing his leadership and tactical prowess. However, it was during World War II that his legacy was firmly cemented. After being captured by Soviet forces in 1939 and imprisoned, he was released in 1941 to form and lead the Polish II Corps. This unit's valor, most notably in the Battle of Monte Cassino, was pivotal in the Allied efforts in Italy.


Beyond his battlefield accomplishments, Anders was a dedicated advocate for Polish independence and the welfare of his compatriots. After the war, he chose exile over life in a Poland under Soviet influence, continuing his advocacy from abroad. His unwavering commitment to his nation’s sovereignty and freedom remains an enduring inspiration.
