Description: Group of little Polish boys at the camp at Balachadi, India. The boy marked "X" carried his baby sister (also in the picture, right in front of him) to safety to the Polish relief lorries after the death of their parents in the Soviet Gulag. Polish refugees and war orphans, evacuated from Soviet captivity in Siberia, found good friends in India. Maharajah Jam Saheb Digvijayasinhaji of Nawanagar lent sites for two camps; one of them, the Polish Children's Camp at Balachadi, housed around 1000 children.
