Kazimierz Pułaski

 

From POLAND : Key to Europe, 1938 by Raymond Leslie Buell

Poland and the United States
The relations between Poland and America go back to our War of Independence. Two of the three most distinguished foreigners in the American Revolution were Poles — Count Pułaski, who met his death on our behalf, and General Kościuszko Another Polish soldier, General Krzyzanowski, fought on the Northern side in the American Civil War. During the nineteenth century a number of American statesmen expressed sympathy with the Polish independence movement. In 1844 the New Hampshire legislature passed a resolution stating that the " cause of Poland is the common cause of the friends of freedom throughout the world." Several million Poles took up their residence to the United States during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, largely to improve their standards of living. During the World War some of them returned to fight on behalf of the Polish cause, while Polish propaganda found its most fertile soil in America. Woodrow Wilson was the first world statesman to espouse Polish independence publicly,   (etc).
