"Col. GRAJKOWSKI has commanded the Signals of the I Polish Armoured Division from the formation of the Division until the end of the campaign on the Continent. Throughout this long period he has be tireless in his effort to maintain and improve the signalling in all its branches throughout his command. He has shown great gifts and ability as a trainer and organizer.

The communications in all units of the Division have been of a high standard and there is no doubt that without his high standard of efficiency the Division could not have achieved the successes in battle which it has done. That this state of efficiency was reached and maintained was very largely due to the initiative, ability, energy and example of this officer.

Throughout the campaign on the Continent as in the period of training in UK he has displayed great gifts of drive and leadership. During the battles he has never spared himself and has worked tirelessly to maintain good communications, always visiting the forward positions and advanced units to see for himself and to ensure that the communications were kept open.

The Division owes him a very large debt of gratitude for his fine work in this most vital services of communications."
