Mi´dzynarodowe i lokalne próby aktywizacji byłych zołnierzy Pierwszej Polskiej Dywizji Pancernej w Belgii w latach 1947–1970
The transnational and local mobilization of former First Polish Armoured Division soldiers in Belgium 1947–1970

Summary/Abstract: This article offers an insight into the organisational landscape of former First Polish Armoured Division soldiers during their first phase of settlement in Belgium, between 1947 and 1970. It analyses how formal immigrant organisations gathering former division soldiers in Belgium arouse under the influence of mobilising agencies in Great Britain, the Polish People’s Republic and Belgium. These agencies were at some point pre-occupied with the outbreak of a possible World War III, while at other moments focusing on the way World War II was remembered.
