He completed the first British Ordnance course for Polish units in the Middle East at the Alexandria Sub Area in January 1941, obtaining very good results. As from January 1941, by his untiring work and extensive knowledge of the organisation and functioning of the British Ordnance Service, he contributed in a very large extent to the organisation of the ordnance services in the previous Carpathian Brigade and the present 3 Carpathian Division. Thanks to his professional abilities he rendered great service in the smooth running of the ordnance supplies in the Division especially during the Divisions fighting in Italy."
