Talk:1st Independent Parachute Brigade (Poland)

message: I was planning to put back the general's picture which I had replaced with the brigade patch. It's back now, but thanks Halibut for putting the pic back first, I changed it back to the original General's pic which is more 'action' oriented! :-) Pkmink 14:13, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)

message: Ekhm. Strenght of the unit (size, etc.) would be quite useful. Also I'd love to see discussion of why the unit was not used in the Warsaw Uprising.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 01:56, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I can understand it had to do with 3 things: 1. Logistic difficulty, distances were still too far to fly Dakota's laden with paratroopers from allied territory to Warsaw. 2. Political reasons, allied support for the Uprising was luke-warm at best 3. Simple lack of sufficient qualified paratroopers for the big market garden operation. Every available airborne unit was highly valuable in this light. Pkmink 20:20, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Strenght 

message: There are two versions of the image. One of bad quallity claiming that it are Polish soldiers; one high quallity claiming that they are British troops. The image is also in the book A Bridge Too Far and there it is claimed to be of two british soldiers. It could be that the image is out of place here.
Since the Polish and the British troops wore virtually identical uniforms it is not possible to determine whether the soldiers are Polish of British. 
The original photo is in the Polish_Institute_and_Sikorski_Museum and was taken by a Polish Photographer. It is part of a series of 15 photos around Hotel Hartenstein.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.89.16.63 (talk) 15:50, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Image of the Polish paratroopers 

message: :Image:Poles Arnhem.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Why is the word "exoneration" used as a section title? They did nothing wrong, so for what would they need exoneration? I am changing it to "Post-war honours" CMarshall (talk) 11:52, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't. Ranger Steve, is there any picture of the Polish paras at Arnhem this one could be replaced with? Thanks.--Jacurek (talk) 18:39, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Not that I can find on the IWM collection or wikicommons.  There are quite a few in the photogallery here but I have no idea about permissions to use them. Sorry! Ranger Steve (talk) 19:18, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Exoneration

message: Hi folks.  I'm afraid to say that as someone noted above, an image on this page is almost certainly out of place.   Whilst I've been doing some work I've noticed there a 2 versions of the same image floating around.  One is here and the other here.   I'm fairly sure the second (ie. British caption) image is correct, and this would seem to back it up.  Does anyone mind if I remove the image on this page (I'm going to raise the issue at wikicommons too)  Cheers, Ranger Steve (talk) 10:25, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
