Abstract

The article presents a fragment of memoirs of Klemens Nussbaum, former officer of Polish People’s Army (ludowe Wojsko Polskie), who fled Poland in 1969. His relation was written down after some years of living in Israel and deposited in one of archives in Tel Aviv. It bears witness to his military service, Polish–Jewish relations and the change in author’s attitude to Poland. It contains statements about experiencing anti-Semitism and about life in the Stalinist period.
