As Steveo has already said though....they were fighting against a common enemy, and at the time we were pretty much the only ones around they could have diverted their war efforts towards. Their efforts were no doubt valiant, but to portray them as free willed, freedom fighters who wanted to fight the good cause of Great Britain is surely misleading?

I never said that was the case, merely that I don't see it as one of the finer hours in our national history that having resisted the expansionist agenda of one tyrant we then caved in to that of another.

The Polish contribution to the Allied effort in terms of troop numbers was bettered only by the UK, US and the USSR. Whatever the motivation their contribution was a substantial one - certainly enough to feel somewhat betrayed when their 'allies' agreed to the arbitrary shifting of their borders.
