Hi, you asked few questions, so here are some explanations.
In the end he mentions betrayal, because the efforts and the fact that Poland lost the largest % of its population, it have been "given to" the Soviet Union, becoming its satelite state. When Western Europe was fully independent, Poland was in ruins and governed by the communists. For example, Poland never received any aid like Marshall Plan which rebuild Western Europe, and Poland never received any war reparations. Three guys on the photo are Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin.
The army being reborn refers to the Sikorski-Mayski pact which restored the diplomatic relations between Polish government (during most of the war it resided in London) and the Soviet one. There were Polish soldiers fighting in the West already - the soldiers of the Anders Army were Soviet prisoners of war who happened to not be murdered in Katyń. The pact was signed after German invasion on the USSR, and the Polish POWs were to be freed - some remained in the USSR fighting alongside the Red Army (Berling's Army) while others left to join the Allies in the West (Anders' Army).
Monte Casino is in Italy - there was also a bear Wojtek who was in the Polish Army - there are some videos about him too.
The thing with the non-aggression pacts signed with Hitler is that these didn't have a secret part about dividing certain countries - the pact signed by the Soviets had, which doesn't make it non-aggression pact but rather alliance (even if temporary). Contrary to other pacts, it wasnt signed few years before the war, but around two weeks.
Sean Bean is the actor who keeps dying all the time - Boromir from LOTR and Ned Stark from GoT.
The paratroopers he talks about were Cichociemni (Silent Unseen) - some kind of special forces, they were Polish soldiers who came from London to aid the Underground.
Thank you for the explanation. Oh yeah I know Sean Bean we watch LOTR and GOT. GOT is actually one of Sujy favorite tv show ever!
Partly true. I will not dispute heroic fight of polish against nazi, but before that polish goverment offered nazi to attack soviet union together. And just about one year before that, polish army participated in dividing Chechoslovakia together with nazi.
@@arat9144 It was the Reich who offered to attack the USSR together, but Poland refused - it is actually quite common knowledge. Poland had no point in invading the USSR. Annexation of Zaolzie by Poland was a result of an ultimatum sent to Czechoslovak government but was not discussed in any way with the Germans - in this case it was basically an opportunism of Polish government, taking advantage of weakened Czechoslovakia to annex the territories inhabited by the Poles. Unlike in case of the Soviet invasion of Poland, according to my knowledge nobody died in Zaolzie, nobody was persecuted and nobody was sent to any camps. It may be critisized or justified depending on the perspective, but comparing it to the genocides makes no sense - I noticed Putin likes to mention it, more than Czechs and Slovaks. Thanks for the response.

Fun fact One of the commader są.303 was Johnny Kent "kentowsky" Canadian pilot en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_A._Kent
Tak to prawda yea you right
The Germans were terribly afraid of them, they called them "Black Devils" because of the color of their berets and long black leather coats, but above all because of the crazy, almost unprecedented courage that General Stanisław Maczek's soldiers had in their blood.
Polish army from russia was born from soldiers in stalin's camps, Monte Casino it is in Italy, Polish fighters ware the best in england.
Ładnie angielski ogarniasz 😉

Hitler: I have tanks
Stalin: I have army
Polish Army: We have a fuckin bear
Wojtek the Bear was bought by polish soldiers in Russia, they took him as a mascot (he was small then). When he was grown up he was used to be a guardian of the camp. During the battle of Monte Cassino he was carring amo. Pretty cool story.
Explanation of your questions:
Poland helped Britain and French during war and Britain betrayed us (i’m polish) so we were on the russian side of Iron Courtain.
These dates are dates of events of resist against communists. There was pretty rough, militia even opened fire to civilians. It was all ended when polish guy was elected as a Pope (his name was Karol Wojtyła and his pope name was John Paul II)
Enigma was a German coding machine, Codes created by this were so complicated that when a letter A was typed and it was coded as for example C, the next time when A was typed it could be typed as Y. Polish mathematicians broke the first code of Enigma by stealing one of machines in Gdansk and basing on that build decoding machine. Then British cryptologist (from the movie you were talk about, „mystery game” i think)broke the code basing on Polish works.
If you have any questions just ask :)
Wojtek was actually bought from a young boy in the middle east in exchange for some cans
Kuba Kawulka yeah Pakistan, but it was Soviet Union. Cans and Chocolate
That Bear was sold to Polish by Palestinian Boy

"betrayed by who?" by everyone
my fav is Great Britain, who was literally saved by our pilots during Hitler's attack on them (and saved from speaking german now), and after winning, they made parade to celebrate victory and they not only didnt invite us but told our pilots to gtfo of the country as they were scared of revenge from hitler
but we were betrayed by everyone
for centuries our solders helped and won battles around the globe, even Napoleon said that if something seems impossible, you can't do something, just send Poles, they will do it right away, yet after helping everyone, after all those pacts, when war came upon our home, we were alone
there are few movies good and bad, but show really well how it looked like, you should watch it for sure
also interesting thing is that Russia actually changes history now and teaches everyone that the war happend because of Poland and we are bad here
What the russians say about Poland was bad?
@@danielgyorgy9026 Polish concentration camps or fake russian victories over Poland and much more
This so why my favourite historical person is Napoleon. Fuck Churchill and Chamberlain. Taking credit for everything.
I also heard that not only Brits told Polish folks to go back to their country... Polish army also received „bills” . Letters with information how much of fuel they used, how many broken machines they left, repairs for the planes, even how much food they ate and water... etc. Sooo not nice :/
@@pawejedlinski7112 wow naprawdę skąd to wiesz
After the invasion of Poland in September 1939, Germany and the USSR cooperated together until the summer of 1941. It was on Soviet oil that the Germans conquered Western Europe. It was only when Germany invaded the USSR that they suddenly decided that something was wrong. Just two bandits quarreled after the bank robbery and one attacked the other. In short speaking...
The Russians say that they liberated Poland during the 2nd World War. We Poles say that one invader (USSR) replaced the other (Germany).
Poland regained independence only in 1993, when the last Soviet left our country.
In Yalta Poland was taked by Stalin and until 1989 ruled by Russia we not have independent.
Why betrail cos that was deal between Stalin, Churchil (UK) and USA. Polish soldgers wasn't invided on big parade in London cos of winnig but UK say that they should return to Poland. Some soldgers do this and died in gulags or were shoted by NKWD.
The date from 1945 to 1989 are date of protest or fight polish underground with Russia.
Soviet prisons were worse than german concetration camps , Witold Pilecki , Polish who went as volunteer to Auschwitz Birkenau , in his notes wrote "German Concetration camps compared to Soviet Prisons were nothing." After war a lot of Polish Heroes fighting for Independence were arrested and killed by communists
In 7:48 you are wondering about how it is possible to create a polish army in USSR after killing 20000 officers, Katyń happened in 1940. The war between Soviets and Germans start in Jun 1941 and after that Stalin decided to create a Polish army in USSR from surviving Poles (civilians and soldiers). Gen. Anders (the guy who commands this army) heard rumours about Katyń because germans found tombs. After gathered every people he escaped from USSR to Persia (now Iran). From there he guided army to the war fields in north Africa and Italy.
The interesting fact is that gen. Anders took every Pole like women, kids, old men to save them from communism horror and left them in Persia with care provided by local gov.
Plenty of people were in India to mostly kids but thats another 'story'
Pozdrawiam serdecznia brata rodaka.
Anders didn't escaped from USSR. He simply was granted permition to go from soviet government cause western allies needed them in their war theatre. And in 1943 we created our new army allianced with the Red Army and co-liberated the country.
@@BASSOSOVIETICO1987 liberated? Yeah right... what an idiot
@@Pgm76 well... yeah.... Wał Pomorski, Kołobrzeg, Studzianki... I'm sure all the soldiers of I polish Army and common red army soldiers "dreamt" to bring us communism...
I think "reborn army" is a well-explained term in the story about Wojtek the bear - about the Private/Corporal Wojtek.

My comment on 7:22 min Max and Sujy questions about Polish Army reborn.
After the defeat in September 1939 some Polish soldiers managed to escape to France and the UK. These soldiers were fighting alongside French and British troops, during the German attack on France, The Battle of Britain (Polish airmen/pilots), Norway, Normandy, Ardens etc. When Germany attacked the Soviet Union in 1941, the Soviets become allies to France, UK, and the US. At this point, it was possible to create an Army in the Soviet Union from Polish soldiers captured by Russians during September 1939 and youth (in 1939 most of these men were just youth, but in 1942 they were already adults). They were lacking polish officers because of Katyń massacre, but at this time only few people knew about the massacre. This army under the leadership of general Anders go to Palestine, Egypt, and then to Italy. The second army was created after the fact of the massacre was already known to the Polish Government and the relations with the Soviet Union was bad. This army under the leadership of general Berling was controlled by Stalin and had mostly soviet officers (polish were privates and lower rank officers). My grandpa was just 17 years old when he managed to "escape" gulag and joined this army. For him as for many, it was the only way to return to Poland and not being a Russian slave for the rest of his life.
Cattle wagons- this is what it sounds. Poles were Put in wagons, that were ment to transport COWS.
Thank You For This Reaction! Pozdrowienia z Polski! Jestescie super! DZIEKI
Proszę cię...
After the war, Poland was occupied by Russia
The one thing should also be remembered in that occasion. Poland is on many things accused of being nationalist country, almost same as nazis was Germany before WW2. You need to remember that Polish nationalism was fight to bring Poland back were it should be, where polish people lives, in opposite to German and some other country nationalisms, that they want to expand ther countries in cost of another. Poland never tried to expand their territory throught hostile and bloody invasions, Poland never has a single piece of colony, we have couple of nations like Ukrainians or Lietuvas that includes Poland, but they were free nation in Polish border. We even have our own muslims, Tatars wich were came here on our king invitation in some XV or XVI century, living here to this day peacefuly.
Yeah, but school getto's, revindication of ortodox church in 1938, taking Cieszyn Silesia from Czechs, political prison in Bereza Kartuska, shooting peasants during peasants strikes, coup d'etat in 1926. We were veeeeeeeeeeeery friendly country for minorities and for our own people...
@@BASSOSOVIETICO1987 Yeah , you are maybe right, but I see those as a local incidents, horrible, but still local. There were never nationwide need for claim hungry outside moves, never in country political way.
I hope you noticed that Poland never had any piece of foreign land as a colony? I think there was a tries to buy something from Dutch, but fails.
I really love the fact that you watched it again to understand better. This video is very very simplistic version of what really happened obviously, but it really hits hard and I'm glad someone is interested. Keep up the good work! 👍
Another fun fact:
The army which was reborn had a squad of guys who adopted a bear. They loved him and it was not only a mascot of the squad but quite a big help. He helped carry ammunition like artylery rounds. He was a huge boost for the morale. Soldiers shared cigars with him and even drinked with him. They were even sparring with him. But when they came the sea they couldnt take him with them on the boat across the sea cause he was an animal. So what they did is they enlisted him as one of the soldiers. He even got paychecks and stuff.
Name of the bear was Wojtek.
We were betrayed by the Allies. We were on their side the whole time and our involvement in this war was very significant. As a thanks, they sold us out to Stalin after the war and as a result Poland had to suffer nearly 50 years of communism and being a puppet state controlled by the Soviets. And BTW, because some of the people in the west today think that communism is awesome - it's not, it doesn't work in the real world. Yes, there is the economic equality, but everyone is poor. After the war Poland was destroyed the most and thanks to the Soviets we also recovered much slower than the Western Europe. Today's Poland is fairly developed country, but our GDP is considerably lower than for Germany, France, Great Britain etc. and it all can be traced back to this betrayal.
As an Indigenous Native American Indian I know we had a code that was never broken...world war ll effected many. You should react to the story about the last code talker from the Navajo Nation...they were not allowed to share their story with their families and were shocked that they could speak their language let alone use it to assist the Military.

Basically Yalta Conference was a meeting between heads of the Allies and Soviet Union (Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Joseph Stalin) and the main topic was a new order in Europe after the defeat of Germany. Poland was "betrayed" by UK and US because instead of being a independent country it was sold out under influence of the Soviet Union as a satellite country which mean we were occupied once again but in a different form. We existed on the map as a sovereign country but under control of USSR, the government was ruled by polish comunist party which was a soviet puppet.
Poland ❤🇵🇱 I love you so much and I’m always ready sacrifice my life to you because you deserve it kocham cię Polsko jedyna ukochana
The Black Devils refers to General Stanisław Maczek and the 1st Armoured Division. They were called "the Black Devils" - because of the colour of their berets and leather jackets.
💓Thanks for your comment on the video. Members of my Polish family were forced laborers in WWII Germany. Others died in the Warsaw Uprising. Everyone in Poland has victims in their family. Poles will never give up their freedom. Greetings:)
Thank you for wanting to know my ancestors history and for sharing the story which we don't watch in the news - it's the first step for at least google it and get to know eachother better! ❤
Generał Stanisław Maczek has gone down in history as a brilliant army general. The Germans called his army the Black Devils.

Iron curtain is basically a line drawn on the map to divide which belongs to Soviet or the free world (Allies).
England, America, and Soviet basically decided that because they are the major power on the winning side of WW2,
While the smaller nations can only accept whatever they decided. That leaves Poland in the hand of Soviet as their buffer zone, even thou Poland has been fighting against German AND Soviet all those times.
There's no detailed history of WW1 and WW2 taught in my school back then, so I had to look it up myself through many means (mainly internet) so there might be some mistakes in my explanations.
The Iron Curtain was dropped after Churchill's Fulton speech. In fact, Churchill created a coalition of Western countries to weaken the USSR, and then for military capture. Until that moment, Stalin appeared on the cover of The Times, and in the press, Stalin and Soviet people were called friends. Common betrayal by a Western ally.

The Battle of Monte Cassino, also known as the Battle for Rome and the Battle for Cassino, was a series of four assaults made by the Allies against German forces in Italy during the Italian Campaign during World War II. Jan 17, 1944 - May 19, 1944
On 16 May, soldiers from the Polish II Corps launched one of the final assaults on the German defensive position as part of a twenty-division assault along a twenty-mile front. On 18 May, a Polish flag followed by the British flag were raised over the ruins.
Poland also wasn't a country for so many years like they were one of the Greatest Empires and then they got divided by Prussia, Austria, & Russia. Then Napoleon came and made the Dutchy of Warsaw and then when he lost to Russia Poland went back to not existing and then after WWI they became a country again and of course WWII. So Poland has a rich history and some what complex one. So they were the punching bag of Europe even though they protected them from the OTTOMENS
Well it still kinda was. Krakow was a free city state.
Poland was existing as a sovereign autonomy called "Kingdom of Poland" under emperor of Russia that hold the title of King of Poland
@@BASSOSOVIETICO1987 yes, this "autonomy" had two uprisings that were ended in blood by Russians :)
@@robertsiwek7503 I can't agree the first one was so "bloody". Afterall, it was an uprising with a regular armies grouped in not sooo big detachments and polish officers were ambigous in their loyalty toward russian emperor as a king of poland. Even in the first day insurgents shot those polish generals that thought the pledge of loyalty is sanctified. And later main leaders didn't know what to do cause they never had any thoughts about independence but merely to make autonomy a little bigger because of their landowner interests. In a result, the very liberal constitution of autonomy was cancelled. The second one was of course far more bloodier. Here small partisan detachments were always on a verge of existence. But still the nobility didn't have big thoughts about joining their forces with polish peasantry. It was highly reactionary uprising. Result: process of rusification (although it lasted just 7 years cause tzarist authorities proved it was very uneffective and badly prepared). In my opinion the best polish attempt to prevail the system was their part in 1905 revolution. It was well prepared, it had a solid ground and echoed big time.
@@BASSOSOVIETICO1987 No matter what you think. Fact is that there were two uprisings and Kingdom of Poland under Tsars rule was not considered as really polish state by polish ppl. So just don't try to put this period in the lightspot as a period of independent Poland that was ruled by polish King and everyone was happy about that. If they were, then they would not pick up the fight. Yes- we can discuss details about Alexander period till 1825 as let's say liberal in the same way as Warsaw Princedom period - but this mood was totally changed under Tsar Nicholas.

You should of watch the Polish version ipntv niezwyciężeni. It's in Polish but it has English subtitles and I think it brings more of an impact hearing it in Polish
I have an opposite view. English version is almost the exact translation of Polish one, but - at least for me - English text is more striking.
The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact was not "just a non-aggression pact". Yes, Russians always make sure to comment that. What of it? The pact actually contained information (in a protocol) on the partition of Poland and the division of influence zones across other countries "in case of political rearrangement", i.e. war. Stop sprouting the propaganda. No, other countries don't just casually decide what part of neighboring territory to seize anytime they draft a non-aggression pact, you kids :D

Gulags were Russian concentration camps. The places were the same horrible, located in the coldest areas in Russia. Try to survive in casual clothes like pijama in -40C....
By who Poland was betayed? France, British and USA
The paratroopers (Cichociemni) were Polish people, who were trained in Switzerland.
Polish pilots have gone down in gold in British history. The Tadeusz Kosciuszko Warsaw Fighter Squadron 303, which was formed on August 2, 1940, distinguished itself with exceptional efficiency and heroism during the Battle of Britain.
The 303 Squadron is counted among the best fighter units of World War II. During the Battle of Britain in 1940, it was credited with 126 sure kills scored officially during the war, putting it in first place among the fighter squadrons taking part in the battle. Four Polish squadrons fought in the Battle of Britain - two bomber squadrons: 300 and 301, two fighter squadrons: 302 and 303, and 81 Polish pilots in British squadrons. According to official IPN documents and a report by Robert Gretzyngier and Wojciech Matusiak, 145 Polish aviators took part in the fighting, but this figure does not include Polish technical personnel, whose contribution to the victory was equally significant.
the guys at Yalta conference were: Winston Churchill (UK Prime Minister), Josef Stalin (Soviet leader), Franklin D. Roosevelt (Us President)

Poles always fighting for freedom. The true meening of freedom. Respect your love, respect your home and if somebody gonna attack your land just leave your life and do what you need to to defend it.
You didn't understand how our army was reborn. At first, Germans and Russians were allies. However, later the Germans attacked the Russians. Then also all Poles who were sent to Russia could create armies and have a chance to dig up Germany
The only way the Polish Army was reborn becasue Stalin agreed to free Polish soldiers from the gulags under the pressure from the Alliesb ....You have to remember not only Polish soldiers were sent deep into Russia. But also their families...
@Mags W There is some truth in it. Check who did send diplomats to USA from Russia when they started to loose the war with Germany.
@@FGG79able You are both right, the story is very long
1st Armored Division of General Stanislaw Maczek
They were called "black devils" - from the color of their berets and leather jackets, and also because of their insane courage. The struggle of Maczek's soldiers against the German invaders lasted from the first to the last day of World War II in Europe. They did not allow themselves to be beaten by a stronger opponent, and as the only major division of the Polish Army retaining combat capability in 1939, they withdrew to Hungary, from there to France, from where the fate of war threw them to Great Britain. In 1944 they returned to the continent already as the 1st Armored Division. The most important thing for them was to fight for the freedom of their homeland. General Maczek said: a Polish soldier fights for the freedom of all nations, but dies only for Poland.
Omg i from Poland! Thanks for video
Reaction : "Miasto 44"
cool movie ;)
paratroopers in polish caled Cichociemni was the firs comandos
6:36 Yeah, in theory. But in practise gulags were much worse than concentration camps because they were working for 18 hours per day in -20 celsius degrees without any warm clothes or housing and only food they were given was 1 slice of "bread" (made out of wooden dust). Prisoners of gulags Lost contact with their families forever and were not able to leave soviet union till 1976. I know what im saying. My family survived that.
My grand grandpa suffered both death camps and gulags. He said that German death camps were luxurious hotels compared to The gulags. In death camps people were killed. In gulags nobody killed those people. They starved to death, illness, died to injuries or cold.
Poland has not yet perished, Long Live Poland! *Polish Anthem Plays*
I think we was betrayed by everyone. Because we ask for help information about Holocaust and then when he talks he said "Nobody listens to us." I mean because my parents telling me My Mom was born in 1969's and My Dad 1964's. They tells me that they were like a prisioners in they're own country. Because of the Iron Curtain and for everyone war ends in 1945's but for Polish people 1979's it's like still half of the century of living in communism etc
My Mom even tells me that they have to stay in store like hours not like now you go 5 minutes and bye. She tells me they even have to like eat only bread and butter that's all because in stores people even buy so fast sausages, meat etc but the most weird for me was that they didn't pay by money but something like paper. If you have a paper you can buy anything if you don't. Don't even come to the store because we don't have anything for you. But we have a food etc but only for someone's who have papers. So yeah... it was hard. What I know My Dad was like forcly by country go to The Netherlands and Germany with my great-father because living in Poland was so cruel. They didn't have much money and communism just end. Listen now because this is like "Finally!". We should have burgers etc the same like other countries but for the first time people eat burgers after 1990's like 32 years ago. Because we had an iron curtain. Now is 2022's and finally we have everything. Even Pad Thai from Thailand. But governtment steals our money haha
Zostaliśmy zdradzeni przez sojuszników, zostawili Polskę bez wsparcia pod kontrolą komunistów z Rosji

Reborn. After not having a country for 123 years, our culture and tradition survived.
Yalta (Jałta) conference... Churchill gave is to the Stalin to Świt Union... They decided where parts of Europe should be... And as a result we lived behind the Iron curtain and had comunism ib coutry.
It wasn't a very long time! That was 80 years ago
Hitler attacked Poland on side of USSR. Read secret agreement between Stalin and Hitler. Stalin himself was the initiator. USSR was agressor from the beginning of ww2 till the end.
