This is not a reference to you, Elvenking, but, for some reason, many Poles seem to believe that everybody forgets the Polish contribution to the Battle of Britain. I have no idea at all where they get this belief? Yet, look at almost any BoB video on youtube, and theres hundreds of Polish people saying that they get no recognition, and that Poles won the BoB. Polish pilots played a large part in the battle, and British people with any knowledge of the subject happily accept that, as Poles had several whole squadrons during the battle, including the highest scoring of the whole battle, 303 Squadron. I just don't see why they always have to say that Poland contributed heabily, as if nobody already knows.
