Gabčík and Kubiš were great Czech heroes who did the ultimate sacrifice for the freedom of their fatherland. RIP, they should never be forgotten. Karel Curda shall burn in hell for his treason, cause acting voluntarily he betrayed his fellow soldiers to get the bounty of 1 Million RM. Shame on him.

In Poland the highest ranking Nazi official killed by the AK was Franz Kutschera.

That's how he ended his career.

Next SS and police leader of the Warsaw district, SS-Oberführer Herbert Böttcher was a clever guy and he didn't want to come back home in this way,

so he stoped public executions on the streets of Warsaw.
That saved his life until 1950.06.12 when he was eventually hanged in Warsaw.

Any informations about czech 43rd airborne battalion? I saw them for the first time in Macedonia 2001 when first 120 paratroopers arrived to disarm albanian rebels. There is a text on czech MoD site but that is not enough...

Consists of 3 combat companies
1 company have 3 platoons. one platoon have 3 squads by 6 men.
Batalion continues in traditions of Czechoslovakian paratroopers in WWII. In the begining of 90' was oficial designation "71st Abn batalion" and you can still see on their badges "71 Výsadkový prapor CZ" (71 Airborn batalion CZ).
Batalion is one of the elite units of our army. It's equiped with one of the finest czech tactical gear, arms and other equipment

that´s very nice

of which time are the pics? czech ISAF units have already LR Defenders only from this year March. And what about the civilian toyotas?

**TheSun_CZ** · 05-13-2006

Defenders were deployed mainly in Iraq. In Afghanistan our army uses UAZs and toyotas (which are pretty bad). Land Rovers will be deployed with the second rotation of our troops together with special forces. Soldiers on photos are members of 102nd reconaissance battalion.
