From the Soviet Gulag to Arnhem: A Polish Paratrooper's Epic Wartime Journey
By Nicholas Kinloch
WWII / Poland / Memoir
Stanislaw Kulik was 15 when Soviet soldiers sent his family to a Siberian gulag, where his mother and brother died. After Germany invaded the Soviet Union, the Russians released their Polish captives so they could join the Polish army. Kulik crossed Central Asia alone to find this army, eventually reached Iraq, then sailed from India to Britain to train as a paratrooper. As part of Operation Market Garden, he dropped into Arnhem, was captured by the Germans, then escaped with help from the Dutch Underground. Nicholas Kinloch, Kulik’s grandson, tells the story based on extensive interviews he conducted with his grandfather before he passed away in 2016.
