This article brie tory – General Władysław Anders and also the post-war repatriation of soldiers of the history presents the profile of an outstanding politician in our national his-2nd Polish Corps, whose fate led them to the so-called Recovered Territories, including, among them, Opole Silesia. When applying for repatriation from Great Britain by sea (to Polish Pomerania) and by land (by rail from Italy) to Silesia, over one hundred thousand people returned to the country. Despite the chaos and revolutionary systemic changes, the shrinking of Poland in the East and enlargement in the West, Anders’ army veterans, of the „trail of hope” are looking for a place of „small stability” in their homeland. Some of these Anders’ veterans decide to settle in the region of Opole Silesia. Deportations, resettlements, displacements, repatriations – the brutality of the events aer 1945 come as a shock for the inhabitants of the former Provinz Oberchlesien (Upper Silesia). This publication is supplemented by written memoirs of soldier-repatriates, as well as the content of conversations with their immediate family.
