Eugene Zarebski - a Story of Escape, Survival and Resilience
Eugene Zarebski - a Story of Escape, Survival and Resilience
I remember my father-in-law Eugene as a stoic character who possessed a rather dry sense of humour. His story is one of a young man's effort to stay alive and fight in the Second World War, but it also shows us how such a Polish patriot could manage to settle down to life as a coalminer in England, finally becoming an "Aussie" embracing a different culture and totally different lifestyle. The geography alone is absorbing - captured in Poland and sent to Northern Russia, then south into Uzbekistan, across Turkmenistan to Iran and Iraq - to be eventually transported by a British Navy ship to Liverpool in England. He was sent to Belgium and Holland in the war, then afterwards Duxford near Cambridge, London, Nottinghamshire and finally Melbourne, Australia. Enjoy the story.
