The uniformed personnel add:

On February 26, 2008, during the second rotation of the Polish Military Contingent in Afghanistan, a Humvee vehicle drove over a mine. As a result of the explosion, one soldier was wounded and two died at the scene – including Senior Private Hubert Kowalewski. He was posthumously promoted to the rank of corporal.

Honor and glory to the heroes!
