After receiving my grandads records from RAF Northolt for his time served in the Polish 2nd Corps under the British Army. He states: 'voluntarily enlisted in the Polish forces under British command with effect from 11.08.1944 and was posted to 21 infantry Regiment, 2 Polish Corps Troops Base. served in Italy in the Battle of Ancona, rear guard of 8 British Army, Action in Northern Apennines and Battle for Bologna/ Lombardy Plain.' How come I can't find any information on the 21st infantry regiment on the internet? Apart from that of the USA army. Can anyone shed any light on this?
'cos it should read 21st Infantry Battalion, who were a part of Polish II Corps Troop Base. Cheers Pete Link here, scroll down to the bottom: II Corps (Poland) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
