Kazimierz Duda C.K.M. Band of Brothers CHRONICLES DOCUMENTS


In the programme for January the number of hours for combat training was increased. The squadron had marches once a week, 2 hours long, about 7 miles, with drill, morning gymnastics every day, unless early departure for exercises interfered, or shooting range first thing in the morning.
During the month of January the squadron had several kb. and Sten shootings.
The shooting was programmed according to the shooting instructions - more difficult, because the squadron shot it more than once. As far as the training outside the CKM. gun was concerned, unfortunately, we had to go through the whole thing over again and we did not know which time in a row.
Unfortunately, that's how it was with that army in exile, with constant reorganizations and new training from the beginning.
Each commander started by checking the proper saluting, the use of weapons (KB.), the reminder of basic attitudes, etc.
