The jacket itself is a London tailors made piece, with red lining and named to the inside pocket with the initials ‘K.W.G’ on a ‘Raman, of New Bond Street London label’. complete with original insignia, featuring a British made 8th Airforce patch, silver senior pilot wings maker marked ‘Meyer, New York’ and the rank of Lieutenant Colonel to the epaulettes. The USAAF collar badges are in situ, held in place with pin and catch or early Phinney type clutch backs. Six, ‘six months’ overseas bars don the lower left arm. Below the wings are the medal ribbons denoting, DFC, Air Medal with Oakleaves, American Campaign Medal, EAME and what appears to be the Asiatic-Pacific Medal? The Distinguished Unit Citation is upon the right chest, which the 353rd was awarded in September 1944. The tunic has seen some sunlight damage, due to slight change of green shade across parts of the blouse, but not particularly noticeable. Lt Col K Gallup mainly flew with the 353rd fighter group, firstly assigned as Group Ops officer in May 1944, until becoming the 350th FS commander. He would become an ‘ace’ whilst flying P-47’s mainly ‘Rat A Dat’ and shooting down 9 confirmed air victories, 2 ground targets and sharing 2 others.

WW2 Polish Air Force Badges and Paperwork Archive of Famous Polish Zoologist and Professor Kajetan Ludwik Boratynski, Being Shot Down and Captured Until Liberation in 1945, a most interesting grouping of items which relates to this officer and also items relating to another Polish air force officer by the name of Sylvester Godlewski who was killed in a flying accident in 1942. The badges in the grouping consist of two variations of Polish Army cap badges, Polish air force cap badge with thin blade fittings to the reverse, RAF pilots wing and a cloth observers wing. Also with the badges is a Polish pilots badge with the remains of the gilt finish to the wreath, screw back fitting with all the details erased and a enamel badge for the Deblin Air Force officers school which is numbered to the reverse ‘386’. Other items of insignia include a identity bracelet engraved with Polish air force eagle and ‘dr BORATYNSKI K F/O P-0615’ a coin bracelet and a pair of Polish air force cuff links with his initials. The paperwork and photograph archive is really interesting also, it includes a number of pre-war, wartime and post war documents. Some of the highlights of the documents include his Polish Army Air Force identity card with uniform photograph dated 19th Mai (May) 1940, pre-war linen identity pass document, 1933 Polish officers service book, etc. Other interesting items are the original documents, single identity disc of the other Polish air force officer, Sylvester Godlewski, including the RAF form 96 ‘Message Form’ informing Boratynski that he had been killed in a flying accident. We are unsure of the relationship between the two men, possibly family members or close friends? Really nice grouping of photographs, including many showing fellow airmen wearing Polish air force uniform and badges etc. Postcards sent to Blackpool, where he was stationed at one time etc. A very interesting grouping which needs to be carefully sorted and looked at, we would recommend personal viewing if possible to appreciate this group. Kajetan Ludwik Boratyński was born on July 27, 1907. After the outbreak of WW2, he evacuated with his unit, avoiding the besieged Warsaw, to the east. On the day of the Soviet aggression against Poland, September 17, 1939, at 10:30, he was taken prisoner by the Red Army in Jagielnica near Czortków. That same evening, he managed to escape from a convoy of prisoners, together with Lieutenant Observer Zbigniew Siarkowski and Second Lieutenant Medical Officer Marian Turski. The next day, at 8:30 p.m. after dark, he forded the Dniester in Zaleszczyki, reaching Romania. Boratyński initially stayed in the city of Călimănești, and then (from 3 to 13 October) in the internment camp in Drăgășani. After receiving a passport from a courier arriving from Bucharest, he escaped and left for Constanța. There, on 20 October, he boarded a ship to France. After a voyage via Istanbul, Piraeus, Alexandria and Beirut, he arrived in Marseille on 13 November 1939. He was sent to the air base in Lyon-Bron. After the establishment of the Aviation Training Centre, on 15 December 1939, he was transferred to Lyon-Foire. Until the fall of France, he served in various positions in the 3rd and 4th Reserve Squadrons of the CWL, to which privates of the air force were assigned. After the fall of France, he was evacuated by sea to Great Britain. From 14 July 1940 he was stationed at the Weeton Air Camp, from where he was transferred to Blackpool Air Force Base on 3 August. He served in the Staff Squadron of the Ground Training Centre. Boratyński applied as a candidate for the flying staff. From 31 January to 14 June 1941 he trained at the theoretical course for gunners-radio operators and navigators in Blackpool. After completing it, he was assigned as an adjutant to the Officers' Squadron of the Ground Training Centre, and then (at the turn of June and July 1941) to the 305th Bomber Squadron "Ziemia Wielkopolska". The unit was stationed at RAF Syerston and was equipped with Wellington IC aircraft. It was quite an unexpected assignment, because at that time all new members of flying bomber squadrons had previously undergone crew integration courses in combat training units. Meanwhile, everything indicates that Boratyński joined the bomber squadron without having previously taken part in a single training flight. Despite this, he took part in three combat flights as a front gunner and also a reserve radio operator. On the night of 9–10 July, he took part in the raid on Osnabrück in the crew of Capt. Pilot Karol Zaucha. On the night of 14–15 July, he flew over Bremen in the crew of Sergeant Pilot Stefan Tomicki, and three nights later he bombed Cologne as a member of the crew of Squadron B commander, Major Pilot Szczepan Ścibior. His superiors quickly realised the mistake concerning Boratyński, and on 16 August 1941 he was assigned to the 9th Air Observer School at RAF Penrhos in Wales. After practical training (he flew Ansons, Blenheims and Defiants), on 19 April 1942 he was assigned to the 18th Operational Training Unit (18 OTU) in Bramcote. He began flying Wellington bombers as part of a crew integration course: mainly navigation flights and practice bombing. On the night of 25–26 June 1942, three crews from 18 OTU completing their training programme were also selected for the planned “thousand bomber raid” on Bremen. Boratyński’s crew took off on board Wellington IC XW-N (DV765): Sergeant Józef Laudan, Rtgt Cpl. Czesław Rajpold, Sergeant Wacław Kowalik and Sergeant Alojzy Pozorski. On the return flight, their plane was attacked and hit by a German night fighter. The seriously damaged Wellington managed to escape the enemy, but some time later its left engine caught fire. The pilot decided to make a forced landing northwest of Leeuwarden in the Netherlands. None of the crew were hurt. The Poles set the plane on fire and then moved forward to get away from the wreckage and avoid capture. That same day, while resting in haystacks, they were arrested by Dutch police and German soldiers. Boratyński was taken to the Dulag Luft 3 transit camp in Oberursel near Frankfurt am Main. From there he was sent to Stalag Luft 3 in Żagań. He was imprisoned in the camp for the next few years and, as it turned out towards the end of the war, he was the only one of over a hundred Poles to be taken prisoner as an airman of the 18th OTU. On 27 January 1945, the prisoners of Stalag Luft 3 were evacuated to the west. Boratyński's group, first marching, then travelling by train, reached the Marlag naval POW camp in Tarmstedt. On 2 April 1945, another evacuation took place from there, marching to Lübeck. Exactly one month later, this group was liberated by British army units. After returning to Great Britain, Boratyński was sent to the Air Force Base in Dunholme Lodge, from where on 25 July 1945 he was transferred to the staff of the Polish liaison officer at the RAF Transport Command in Bushy Head near London as an educational officer and public relations officer.
