That's my Grandfather. I randomly googled his full Polish name and come across this post!

You may find this interesting especially as Genadiuz Bondarczuk stayed in the Lincolnshire area after the war, until his death.

A new museum at RAF Ingham just north of Lincoln opened in 2024 which specialises in the contribution made by the Polish Air Force and the history of the PAF squadrons during the War. It also covers some of the social history of those people who stayed on in Lincolnshire afterwards.

The old Hangar No 2 doors from RAF Swinderby which were painted in WW2 with the emblem of the Polish Air Force and feature in many of the historical march past photographs of the P.A.F. have been rescued too and are going to be displayed in the future.

One of the best curated museums I've visited for a while, well worth a visit.
