On Feb 10, 2020, Soldiers from the 297th Regional Support Group and other units from Base Camp Powidz were invited to a tour of the Basilica of Our Lady of Licheń in Poland. Musuem historian, Patryk Kazus gave a lecture on the shared history between the U.S. and Poland to include two well-known generals who assisted America during the Revolutionary War. Casimir Pulaski, better known as the “father of the American cavalry” and General Thaddeus Kosciuszko who assisted West Point with its fortifications. After the main presentation Kazus’s assistant took out Poland’s original copy of the Declaration of Independence and displayed it for the Soldiers. Spc. Nicole Raabe of the 297th RSG pictured here taking a picture of the document. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Capt. Jamia Odom)
