Aleksander Litwinowicz belonged to the group of the Generals of the Polish Army with roots in the Polish Legions. Like many officers from Józef Piłsudski’s circle Litwinowicz started his military career after 1926. When Marshal Piłsudski was in power Litwinowicz in spite of being the Commander-in-Chief of the 3rd Corps District in Grodno and the 7th Corps District in Lwów belonged to the less popular generals. He reached the peak of his military career after Piłsudski’s death, when he won recognition in the eyes of Major-General Edward Rydz-Śmigły (from November 19th, 1936 Marshal), the new General Inspector of the Armed Forces, who promoted him to the position of the Chief of the Army Administration. The outbreak of the Second World War and the internment of General Aleksander Litwinowicz were the causes why he did not come back to Poland until 1946. The postwar period is a special element of his military career; he was then bound up with Western Pomerania. Being the head of the Planning Bureau of the Government Plenipotentiary’s Office for the Rebuilding of Szczecin he became involved in the process of the post-war reconstruction of the city, including the reconstruction of the ports.
