London. Aug D U.R The
battle for the liberation of War
saw began a few minutes after
the Polish capital surrendered
in 1030.
A two-star general changed
his uniform for civilian clothes
and gathered about him a small
group of patriots They went un
derground.
As his fellow Polish staff of
ficers fled south into exile, the
man who today Is directing War
saw's dramatic fight, sat In a
room of the Eurepkeski hotel

would one day take up arms
again.
He walked out of the hotel
that fateful September night and
disappeared so far as the Ger
mans were concerned.
Emerges in 1342
He emerged in 1942 as the
commander in cnief of the Polish
home army after his two prede
cessors had been captured and
killed by Germans. But he
emerged cloaked in the pseudo
nym of "Genera! Bor," a Polish
word meaning forest and synony
mous with the type of fighting
he preached.
His real identity has been so
well preserved that only a hand
ful of high-ranking Polish mili
tary authorities know it and
they guard it zealously knowing
the Germans, if they knew the
true identity of General Bor,
might easily capture him.
But without giving the Ger
mans any clue, it can be stated
that General Bor is an army ca
reer man 48 years old, tall and
with a dominating personality
and a wonderful wit.
Polish officers here who know
him, consider him one of the
most brilliant soldiers in Po
land's history.
Superb Leader
As tactician, one high-ranking
Polish military authority here
said, Bor is one of the best. "His
leadership," this officer said, "Is
superb. Bor has done wonders
with the underground army. He
organized the first units in Sep
tember, 1039, along regular ar
my lines, and directed his own
organization until he took over
all home armies two years ago.
"Bor organized officers' train
ing schools and sent his men on
maneuvers. Rifle ranges were
set up in forest areas controlled
by Polish guerrillas. Hospitals
were set up with women as
nurses. Bor found a use for ev
ery man, woman and child who
wanted to help free Poland. But
until now, he only used his most
highly trained .'oldicrs for spe
cial guerrilla warfare and sab
otage. But with the fight now in
the open, Bur has brought his
tens of thousands of soldiers Into
the open."
Several Headquarters
The handsome general, whose
hair is Just beginning to gray,
maintains sever.il headquarters.
Until the battle for the libera
tion of Warsaw started, his main
general headquatcrs were In an

trolled by his guerrillas. But
with the start of the Warsaw
campaign, he moved into the
capital and into a cavern which
had been one of his secret hide
aways. Here he directs the battle
of Warsaw.
A Polish underground courier
formerly a staff officer in Bor's
headquarters, said the hideaway
is so well hidden the Germans
will never find it.
It is only a small place with
rough walls covered with maps
showing where various Polish
divisions and regiments are op
erating. Tiny red flags mark
spots and areas. There is a sim
ilar map in Pol.sh secret head
quarters here in London which
Is altered from day to day on
information from Bor detailing
the distribution of his forces.
Couriers Used
Bor uses couriers extensively
to maintain contact with his
forces In the field and contact
with his commanders in the War
saw fighting.
A Polish military authority
here said Bor also maintains
close contact with Russian com
manders whose armies are ap
proaching Warsaw.
On occasions, Bor personally
slips through German lines to
visit his units.
His messages to his command
ers are given orally to couriers
as a safeguard against informa
tion falling into the hands of the
Germans.
Two or three times daily, Bor
sees that the population of War
saw knows of the progress his
troops are making by the use of
