Description
Non-aligned mural, Benburb St., The Village, South Belfast, 2017. 'Band of Brothers'; mural commemorating '300 Mazovian Bomber Squadron', a Polish squadron that fought alongside the RAF; 'Many Polish servicemen remained in Great Britain and Ireland after the [Second World] war, laying the foundations for a large Polish community that now (in Northern Ireland) numbers over 30,000. The Poles fought fiercely on all fronts for their freedom and ours, and their sacrifice should never be forgotten'; flowers in Polish colours; the Polish community is overwhelmingly Catholic, so this mural in a strongly Loyalist area is striking.
