Neither Father nor Mother were interested in politics. I wasn't either, that much, but I remember that I used to go out of interest to the march- pasts on 3 Maja Street, because there were troops in Bielsko. [Editor's note: In Poland before World War II military parades and march-pasts were very popular. They were intended to reinforce the spirit of patriotism among Poles, who had only regained their national independence in 1918.] There were two units stationed in our town: the third Podhale Riflemen Regiment and the 21st PAL, Light Artillery Regiment [Pulk Artylerii Lekkiej]. March-pasts were frequent, I remember the ones for 11th November best [3].
