1st Polish armoured division - heavy machine gun squadron (C.K.M) - World War Two
Welcome to captain Kazimierz DUDA's web site
Kazimierz DUDA was a captain of the C.K.M squadron (szwadron Ciezkich Karabinów Maszynowych - heavy machine gun squadron) in the 1st Polish armoured division during World War II.
The purpose of this web site is to share information about Kazimierz DUDA's pictures and documents, exchange testimonies, recall to memory and honour all the men he fought with.
I was a friend of one of the First Armoured Division serving officers.
His name is Roman Maryniak and he died in London on September 2, 2009, aged 90 years.
Roman was a freind of mine for 10 years.
I met him through a mutual friend, Richard Saunders from New Bedford, Massachusetts, USA; a great and generous friend of Poland.
Roman's daughter, Wendy Ciriello, had written to this site looking for news of her father, you will be happy to know that I connected her to his family having seen her request for information about Roman on your site and she was fortunate to attend his services.
Keep up the good work!
Jim Camacho.
