First time post. I’m currently involved in researching my grandfather , Ryszard Winowski. He fought at Monte casino with the 5th kresowa infantry , 15 th rifle. From what I understand he was part of the 4th battle/ phantom ridge. For his actions he received some medals among which are the Polonia Restituta and the Virtuti Militari…..I’m having difficulty locating what exactly his actions were to earn these medals. I received a large packet of information from the MOD but it contains nothing as to what particular actions he displayed. There is a photocopy in his packet of what looks like an id card for his Virtuti Militari . There is what appears to be an id# of 11659 in the top right corner next to the words "Nr. Krzyza"

Can anybody here help me or guide me in the right direction to find the detailed information ?

Thank you all,

Joseph R. Winowski
