Sto Lat A Century of Reborn Poland

[dewertus]

In next year Poland will celebrate the 100th anniversary of regaining independence - I propose a campaign that includes any vehicle (by land, air or sea) in Polish markings from 1918 till now.

Well that's inclusive enough to get some action.

I like it. Should be a good ribbon to have on our signatures.

Of course, the campaign ends on the Poland's independence day - 11'th November 2018

Dewertus will Polish pilots in UK during WW2 also be acceptable?

 

[sharkman]

I've got a PZL.23 in the stash I could build for this!

If you wouldn't mind, name it Sto Lat! A Century of Poland

Sto Lat (100 Years) is used during birthdays by well wishers. Unless Hubert had something mind?
