Jerry Kubica was born in 1939 in what was then Poland, and is now Belarus. In April 1940, he, his mother and two sisters were deported by the Soviets to Siberia; his father was sent to GULAG camps near Murmansk. The German attack on the Soviet Union in June 1941 reprieved many Poles; his father joined the Anders Army, fought at Monte Cassino, and the family eventually reunited in the UK in 1947. Poland for his family was closed at the time, so he grew up in the UK, graduated there, worked in the oil & chemicals industry, and as business consultant. He has also lived and worked in the USA and France for a number of years yet, each time, returned to the UK where he now lives with his wife, two daughters and grandchildren. Over the past ten years he has travelled with a backpack “In the Footsteps of Our Fathers” in Western Europe, Belarus, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and searched for the footprints of the GULAG camps across Russia and Kazakhstan. “Footprints on Monte Cassino” is his first story published in support of the Charity “Our Roots Trust” of which he is the founding member. His second book “Footprints in Stalin’s Garden of Eden” will be released shortly.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18253812490654597774
