Exiled from their homeland

Still eager to fight

To take up the struggle and

Battle the Luftwaffe's might

Although small in numbers

By every means they came

To join up with RAF squadrons

And fly Spitfires and Hurricanes

They battled the Heinkels

The Stuka dive bombers too

And tangled with ME-109s

As vicious dogfights ensued

Losing many a comrade

With sorties they flew

As the other squadrons had

The Poles resolve continued

After defeating the German Luftwaffe

These heroic Poles indisputably proven

Taking on the best had to offer

Were the best RAF Squadron

..........Flying the Hawker Hurricanes

What a great tribute! I'm no history buff by any means. So the information goes down sweeter the way you tell it. ~L

having just read several of yours (first time I've read you I believe) you have a way of getting down to it.  Very readable, and your words and flow make one want to follow it all the way through.

Well Done!, my friend.

I enjoy reading you.
