Talk:List of military units in the Warsaw Uprising

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article has been created by moving excess parts of Warsaw Uprising article (read: it was too long).

I will expand the list of German units when I have some time (it is in the sourced book as well). Feel free to do it sooner...this is a Wiki after all, I don't have to explain that I hope :) You want it, you do it :)

"Italian escapees from POW camps in Poland" why had the German been holding them? where were they before being POWS and what happend to them? It would make an interesting small article in its self! Philip Baird Shearer 19:01, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)

There were lots of Italians all around Europe back then, there even was a whole Italian army on the Eastern Front (8th, some 200.000 troops as far as I remember). Many of them were deserters while others were taken POW after Italy switched sides. I don't know too much details, but indeed it would be somehow interesting. In Warsaw there is even an Italian war cemetery, I'd have to investigate the matter a bit. The only thing I found on the web was that after the war most of Allied POWs who died in POW camps were exhumated and transported to their countries while most of Italian soldiers were brought to Warsaw after their exhumation, including those of the infamous stalag Hohenstein.
