@DrFrancisYoung We’re really trying to highlight this and perhaps once the Orzeł memorial at Rosyth is constructed it’ll get more recognition. https://t.co/tg06DfzeSB

Today we commemorate an important date in Poland’s maritime history. On 14 October 1939, the Polish Submarine ORZEL finished its 44-day escape from occupied Poland arriving safely at Rosyth. @PLinEdinburgh @welcometofife @forthpilgrim @defendfife @orzelrosyth

A very harrowing movie, showing the dangerous job of the Polish submariners of #ww2.

[Colin Maxwell @MaximizedComics]

On my way to Edinburgh to see Ostatni Patrol, the film about the Polish Orzeł submarine, and passing all these places that the Orzeł’s crew would have known back in 1940. The Forth Bridge, Rosyth Dockyard.

Can’t wait to see this! Orzeł. Ostatni Patrol. #film #movie #ww2

[British Poles @britishpoles]

In 1946, under pressure from Stalin, the British Labour government did not invite the Polish Armed Forces, who fought with the Allies, to the Victory Parade in London. The Parade took place #OTD in 1946 to celebrate the victory over Germany during WW2.
More than 200,000 soldiers of the Polish Armed Forces in the West had fought under British High Command, and Polish pilots were vital in the Battle of Britain.
None of them marched in the Parade.
It took 60 long years for Poles to join the Victory Parade.

A new true-war story from Colin Maxwell, writer of Flight of the Eagle, the story of the Orzeł submarine.

[Colin Maxwell @MaximizedComics]

In April 1940, the Polish submarine, Orzel, sunk a cargo ship and discovered German troops aboard, heading for Norway. My next true-war story is about some of the Norwegians that fled to Britain to continue the fight. (details in comments)

[Forth Pilgrim @forthpilgrim]

Saw the new film Ostatni Patrol in @gdynia Really very well done!

@Newbattleatwar It was last weekend.

[OrzelRosyth @OrzelRosyth]

Had the great pleasure of an invite to see this documentary film about the Orzeł and the trailer for Ostatni Patrol. #Polska #Scotland

[PLinEdinburgh @PLinEdinburgh]

We are delighted to be able to tell the story of the 🇵🇱 submarine #ORPOrzeł. Winston Churchill called Orzeł's escape from Estonia & the Baltic sea to Scotland "the greatest adventure story to come out of the war". Stay tuned for more details coming soon!

[OrzelRosyth @OrzelRosyth]

Coming soon! The last patrol of the Orzeł.
