Commemorative obelisk unveiled in Mirosławiec air base.

On 30th March, the obelisk commemorating 20 pilots who died in a crash on 23rd January was unveiled. The obelisk is made up of a large stone with names of the fallen pilots, wooden cross, and the only surviving element of the aircraft, a stabilizer with a tactical number 19.


In the ceremony participated pilots’ families and friends, secretary of state in MoND Czesław Piątas, chief of General Staff Gen. Franciszek Gągor and chief of the Air Forces LtGen. Andrzej Błasik.

Participants of the ceremony also attended the holy mass served in the Mirosławiec church and listened to the concert devoted to the deceased, performed by the “Sonata” Symphony Orchestra.
