    Eagle is Polish, with no question.

    Soldier of Parachute Brigade (under General Sosabowski command) or one from many famous "Cichociemnych" which were parachuted over Nazi-occupied Poland to join the resistance forceses.

        Hello,

        He appears to be wearing one of the first pattern British jump smocks that were virtually a copy of the 2nd Pattern FJ jump smocks, one clear obvious difference in this picture are the epaulettes that are featured on the Brit smocks.

        His jump helmet looks similar to the Brit Sorbo training helmet although looks to be slightly more padded than the British one.

        Nice picture none the less.

        Regards,

        Mark.
