Thanks Grzegorz--very interesting historical article. I've heard about Czech legion who fought against Bolsheviks in Russian Civil War (made up mostly from Austro-Hungarian Czech POW's). Never heard of Polish division in Siberia fighting in the Russian Civil War. You always learn something new !

This is almost unknown even in Poland. There was also 4th Polish Rifle Division created in 1918 somewhere near Caucasus. They fought for a few months in 1919 and later came to Poland through Romania. A few small units were on the side of Reds during civil war in Russia.
