Re: Polish Airmen.
Hi Martin
The CWGC is responsible for many hundreds/thousands of Polish war dead who gave their lives in WW2 all over the world fighting on the side of the Western Allies, but because they mostly fought in "exiled" Polish formations their names are not accessible via the CWGC website(even Polish citizens who were in Commonwealth Units were still most often part of the Polish Army/Navy/Air Force). The CWGC policy is that they will put on their website the details of Commonwealth Citizens, but will also include non-Commonwealth citizens who enlisted directly into a UK or Commonwealth Armed Service and that rules out most of the exiled personnel. They do hold on file all the names for whom they are responsible and it might be possible to obtain details through a direct request to them.
Regards
Dick
