I wrote a stub bio for Józef Olszyna-Wilczyński. I'd like to have more info, but some sources indicate he didn't want to fight (keeping in accordance with government orders to decist from fighting with Soviets), and this page (in Polish) has a relation that could indicate he left Grodno before the battle was fought. In any case, he died on 22nd September so before the end of the battle - surely we should mention who was the commander afterwards? PS. I think Olszyna-Wilczyński was in nominal command of this region, but probably was not involved in actual defence - this may be the source of the confusion.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 16:40, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

It's needed if someone is up to it.

"The Soviet aggression " it is not aggression it is liberation of Belorussian city--Jaro.p 10:07, 25 May 2007 (UTC)




Sure, could you write down any diffrence between SS/Wehrmacht and Red Army, I don't see any..."Liberators" were hordes of murderers who rape and rob anything in sight.... Iznogud
