The 1st Independent Parachute Brigade was established in the UK under the command of Colonel Stanisław Sosabowski in 1941. Each front soldier of the brigade had to be a paratrooper. This requirement concerned the brigade chaplains as well. Priests Franciszek Mientki, Alfred Hubert Bednorz and Hubert Misiuda took part in the airborne landing at Arnhem-Driel as part of the Operation Market Garden in the Netherlands in September 1944, jumping on the battlefield by parachute. On the night of 25/26 September, during the evacuation of the brigade across the river Rhine, chaplain Misiuda died. Chaplains F. Mientki, A. Bednorz and, posthumously, H. Misiuda were awarded the Cross of Valour for their courage and dedication shown during the fights of the 1st Independent Parachute Brigade.
