Wlodzimierz Bonawentura Krzyzanowski

Gen. Wlodzimierz Krzyzanowski
1861-1865

"General Krzyzanowski, whose patriotism we commemorate today,
is another link to bind us to the people from which he came in the full tide
of youthful promise when shadows lay over the land which gave him birth.
It is high privilege to bear witness to the debt which this country owes
to men of Polish blood . . . These are the thoughts and reflections
that come to mind today, as we consign to Arlington National Cemetery
the honored dust of a son of Poland who faithfully served the country
of his adoption. General Krzyzanowski was the embodiment of the Polish
ideal of liberty . . ."—President Franklin Delano Roosevelt
