if in fact the objective of this landing was to inspire local confidence in u.s military commitment to the region I am convinced in fact the effect in this era of GPS might have been the opposite.

Their GPS will tell them their latitude and longitude, but it may not have been loaded with the names of every obscure village in Poland. Asking the name of the village is not the same as being lost.

Polish folk music, when well played, is just awesome!

Don’t speak the language, but it love the Poles! As a nation, they have been through hell!

Forgive my ignorance, but what are white pine cigs?

Back in the 80’s the locals near the DMZ would encounter us in the mountains and sell us stuff. That was a common local brand.
