A POLISH PARATROOPER
SIR,—I trust you will pardon my intruding on your very precious time with the request to publish the following extract from a letter which I have recently received from a friend of mine who is in a Polish Paratroop Unit. He wrote it on leaving this country for action on the Continent and said inter alia: "I am now leaving Great Britain after having enjoyed the hos- pitality of this country for four years and having had the privilege of training with the R.A.F., the grandest body of men you could wish to meet. The kindness we have all experienced and the eagerness with which they have striven to ease our difficulties will be a lasting memory of our stay here. There are no dangers, hardships or trials we Poles could not endure and survive with such ;munch comrades at our side. I must admit that England has become something of 3 second homeland to roe."
May the spirit of this Paratrooper prevail in the councils of nations after this struggle and help to build a saner world.—Yours faithfully, Edgware, 14 Oakleigh Gardens, Mddx. J. M. Wrrim-wic./.
