Very big set many items of a Polish soldier who fought in Tobruk 1942. Set includes many papers, some of them with drawings and commemorative texts as well as newspapers. There's also a small pocket photo album and a nice paper with a drawing with an eagle and the name of Tobruk. Also a nice handcrafted and wooden carved cross and the ID of the Polish soldier to whom belonged all the set. Finally there's a very nice photo album with many photos in Tobruk (Egypt) where the Siege of Tobruk took place against the Nazi troops. Polish Independent Carpathian Brigade (Polish Samodzielna Brygada Strzelców Karpackich, SBSK) was a Polish military unit formed in 1940 in French Syria composed of the Polish soldiers exiled after the invasion of Poland in 1939 as part of the Polish Army in France. It was commanded by General Stanisław Kopański. The division fought with distinction in the North African Campaign of World War II, notably during the Siege of Tobruk. In 1942 it formed the backbone of the 3rd Carpathian Rifle Division.
