Poland’s armed combat with the Third Reich lasted from the first to the last day of the Second World War. After the initial period of the Polish campaign in September 1939, this combat continued in France and at the side of the United Kingdom. The Poles who were deported by the Soviets to Kazakhstan and Siberia in 1940-1941 were integrated into an army corps, created in late 1941 after the German invasion of the USSR. The campaign of this army corps, named the IIe Polish Corps and supported by a certain number of civilian personnel, ran through Iran, the Near East, and the Italian front. Another Polish army corps was formed in the USSR in 1943. Fighting at the side of the Red Army, it served at the same time as a tool of Stalin’s policy aimed at installing the communist system in Poland.
