"Jestem Polakiem"

Of course I have no idea how that is pronounced, but I could get it printed on a Business Card and wave it at people.

Google Translate seems unable to translate "Grump Grump" into polish so I'll just have to frown, turn around and walk away shaking my head in disgust.

Doh! Heh, I only watched the first few seconds and thought it was a clip from the film :oops: . I have to say this spoof is genius in concept and execution - better than all the "Downfall" efforts by far!

Special rules and Tasks for ‘The Drop’.

The Poles.

The Polish Para’s have found themselves cut off and need to break through the enemy lines to form up with the local British force tasked attempting to capturing the high ground North of the Oosterbeek. Whilst trying to hook up with British units the poles cannot benefit from any CP in the field. Each man must present himself and his papers to the Overall Commander (OC) of the British force to be able to join the battle in Ernest. If shot and left to bleed out or out of bandages, the Pole must return to their starting position HQ. If Poles that have presented their papers wish to go back and help their comrades still trying to break through they will be able to use the fixed and squad CPs to give them an advantage. (Poles, can you sort out your own papers)

Yes we can.

Note to all Poles: send Chomley an 'ID card' pic of your own face by the end of the weekend please.

Something along these lines (which we did for the 'original' Arnhem event back in 2007 :D )
Try and do it in battledress please, camera phone image OK if you don't have anything else. No need to mess around with the image, send it as it is.
Plain whitish background ideal, best to pop outside and shoot it for best lighting...
