But in Cracow in Poland, there’s Coscuisco Mountain. When he came back from the American war and fought against the Czar and fell in battle, they buried him in Cracow, and the people visiting his grave there each brought a pocketful of dirt, and laid it on or near his grave. Before long, there was a mountain that stands there to this day. Another Polish Noble who fought for freedom.

Got it, thanks!

I live in Idaho and have spent time in Wallace (aka “Dante’s Peak”), so the Pulaski name had a different association for me.

Nope, In Savannah. They did get DNA enough to confirm this.

The story would pop up every few years in the Savannah paper. Was he buried at sea? On land? Elsewhere? Then they found bones. At one point, they were in a box in the Courthouse, but, they are now under his statue.

A nice little general article here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir_Pulaski

You’ll want to dig more if you want more scholarly.

I visited Wallace on a bicycling trip.
There was a nice brew pub in there and a fun community theatre.

According to Wiki, he/she may have been hermaphrodite. Not that that’s a biggy. There were so many cases of hermaphrodites in Talmudic times that there is an entire chapter of the Mishnah dealing with the halachic ramifications of having both organs. But it’s just going to enable and encourage the freak show to get freakier. General Pulaski was one of them, after all.

Yes I was! I was doing the Trail of the Couer d'Alene.

Saw a real live moose walk in front of me by a couple of hundred feet...
