They feel that although their soldiers, like Chiang's are aging, they have had more battle experience than Chinese nationalist soldiers and against a tougher foe. Among Best Soldiers In London's Sikorski Institute maintained by an exile gov ernment the displaced Poles rec ognize, are proud battle honors and regimental flags carried by horse cavalry units against Ger man tanks in 1939, by soldiers in the 1940 Norwegian . cam paign, the 1940 invasion . of France, in 1940-42 at Tobruk, in Libya and the Middle East, in Italy from 1943 to 1945, and through France into 'Germany tor final victory in Europe. They maintain that their gal lantry in wartime has never been clouded in Poland despite, all of Communism's efforts. An ders, himself, won admiration of anti-Communists by virtue of 20 months imprisonment in Moscow's Lublianka prison when he was captured after a clash with Russian forces strik ing into Poland at the time of the Berlin-Moscow pact. Allied officers consider the men who fought for the Polish exile government among the most fearless of the last world war. Their fighter pilots were ranked among the best since the Battle of Britain. Exploits of crack Polish units in Italy are almost legendary. And the veterans have made every ef fort to keep alive their hard won military tradition. Thous ands of the exiles received fur ther training while serving in American and British auxiliary guard units in Germany post war. They have clandestine con tacts with their homeland which more than once have served western intelligence agencies well. Many maintain they aided considerably in the dramatic dash by the two MIG pilots to Bornjholm. This correspondent, for ex ample, served during the war with a regular Polish cavalry officer, who charged invading German tanks on horseback in 1939, and later escaped to Lon don. He' was forced' to borrow money from American and Brit ish friends when his well-decorated uniform was taken away, and then he disappeared with thousands of others, almost pen niless in the reshuffle. The former officer, call him Major B., reappeared however a few years later he attrib utes it to good luck a farmer in Africa, weatlhy enough to vacation yearly on the French Riviera. But Major B. is willing to throw over his new wealth to rejoin a Polish free corps. How do military experts rate the wandering exile Poles? As possibly the most lucrative pool of untapped, war trained man power in Europe outside West ern Germany. ONI MAN IAND Admission $1.00, fax Inc. A BAD NEWS-gt James A.
