Sprawa Leonarda Zub-Zdanowicza w dokumentacji 14 Sądu Polowego Dowództwa 2 Korpusu Polskiego i 12 Sądu Polowego Polskiego Korpusu Przysposobienia i Rozmieszczenia w latach 1945–1947

Abstract

In the years 1945–1947 the 14th Court-Martial of the Command of the 2nd Polish Corps and the 12th Court-Martial of the Polish Resettlement Corps conducted an investigation into the case of an officer of the Home Army and the National Armed Forces, the „silent unseen” Leonard Zub-Zdanowicz, aka „Ząb”, „Dor”, „Szprung”. It was started as a result of a report by the Chairman of the Home Army Verification Commission, which was based on testimonies of Home Army soldiers from the Kielce District and Kedyw (Directorate of Diversion) officers from Warsaw. The accusations concerned, among others, desertion, collaboration with the Germans during World War II and working against the Home Army units. During the investigation several dozen witnesses were questioned, and ZubZdanowicz himself gave testimony as well. He was not proved to have committed the acts he was accused of. The proceedings did not end with the discontinuance of the case, nor did they end up in the courtroom. The files were submitted to the Archives of the Polish Armed Forces. Zub-Zdanowicz was verified in the rank of lieutenant, in the following years he was promoted to the rank of captain, and in 1957 General Władysław Anders appointed him major.
