He was born on June 27th, 1902 in Congress Poland and enlisted for service at the age of 15 with Pilsudski's Polish Military Organization in 1917. He also fought in the Polish-Soviet War and in the Warsaw Uprising during World War II. He was the last Polish veteran to have served during World War I itself.
