Today in our calendar we will look at the life and activities of this traitor.
Jan Rzepecki was born to a household of writer Kazimierz and suffragette Izabela Moszczeńska. In 1909 he began his education in the mediate school in Warsaw. He joined a secret scouting association. Just before the outbreak of planet War I, he became a associate of the firearm Union. He falsified his date of birth so that he could fight in the ranks of the Polish Legions. He went to the 1st Infantry Regiment. After the oath crisis Piłsudski remained in the Polish Armed Forces for which he graduated from the officer's school in Ostrów Mazowiecki.
In November 1918, he powered the Polish Army after which, as a lieutenant, he commanded the infantry company in the war with the Bolsheviks. He then studied in respective military colleges. Since 1924 he has taught tactics and past at the Officer's War School in Warsaw. During the May bombing, he supported the government side and was removed from his positions. Over time, he recovered. In the 1930s, he commanded the battalion and lectured at the Infantry Training Centre in Rembertów.
He wrote many pamphlets and press articles on military matters. He was promoted to lieutenant colonel in 1938. A fewer months before the outbreak of planet War II, he was assigned to General Antoni Szylling's staff. In September 1939, he passed the full conflict way of the Army “Kraków” from Silesia to Lublin. After the defeat, he made his way to the capital, where he supplied conspiracy structures. He became head of the Warsaw SZP/ZWZ territory and then entered the General office of the ZWZ. He utilized respective names and aliases.
In October 1940, he was appointed Head of the Information and Propaganda Office of the KG ZWZ. He remained in this position until the end of the Warsaw Uprising. Thanks to his initiative, an underground “Information Bulletin” was issued and the (significantly) monthly magazine “Insurrection”. He had strong tendencies to downplay the threat of russian politics. He enjoyed socialist views and joined PPS-WRN already during the occupation.
He did not accept the proposal to join the Social Anti-communist Committee. On the contrary, he sought to give the Home Army a left-wing ideological imposition to be a tool supporting the construction of socialism. In the spring of 1943, he opposed the provision of assistance to the Polish population of Volyn, which was threatened by the slaughter of the bandiers. He said: making weapons available in the Borderlands would have ignited the fight's fire to unimaginable size, and planet opinion would have obtained an argument that the fight for the east border was a political mistake.
As a consequence of his actions, the number of defenceless Polish victims gradually increased. In March 1944, Rzepecki summarized his political views in the brochure entitled Position Assessment. He called for neutralization of Polish-speaking communists by establishing a Polish government that would represent primarily left-wing interests, although of course little utmost than the PPR. In turn, as a supporter of insurekjonism, he demanded the insurgency in Warsaw. In the summertime of 1944, he repeatedly pressed the “Bor” of Komorowski.
After the outbreak, he remained in the capital and worked in the staff. Antoni Chrushier “Monter”. He was taken prisoner by the Red Army in January 1945. He left for Krakow and started working with Leopold Okulicki. After his arrest, he became the insolvency admin after the dissolved AK. He decided to destruct the anti-Soviet "No" organization. With the approval of the London government, he became a delegate of the Armed Forces to the country. In August 1945 he besides dissolved this office. He was then president of the Board of the General Freedom and independency Association (WiN).
Despite leading the conspiracy, he wrote a call to the guerrilla troops in which he proposed to “enter the reconstruction of the country” or de facto abandon the armed struggle. Through individual rosads, changes in organisation names and conflicting directives, he led to a mess and even chaos in the structures of the Poak underground. It's like there's not much, the communist services are breaking up the organization with arrests.
Rzepecki was captured in Łódź on 5 November 1945. He was not tortured due to the fact that he went on full cooperation with the occupier. He revealed the structures and members of the WiN association. He gave the Communists boxes, archives, printers, radio stations, and underground money estimated at about a million dollars at the time. Thanks to his help, UB entered the mass arrests of members of the conspiracy. After all, Rzepecki wrote letters to his erstwhile colleagues in which he called for disclosure to the authorities.
During the show trial, he collaborated with investigators and presented WiN as a bandit organization that collaborated with NSZ and UPA. He besides criticized the emigration government saying its goal was to conduct diversion and espionage to the benefit of Western states. These statements were utilized wisely by communist propaganda to discredit and further destruct the underground of independence.
On February 3, 1947, the court sentenced Rzepecki to 8 years in prison. 2 days later, he was pardoned by president Bolesław Bierut. After leaving jail, he joined the communist army. He obtained the position of Deputy manager of the Military investigation and investigation Institute and Head of the Department of Studies at the Academy of General Staff.
In 1949, after strengthening the Stalinist regime, he went back to prison. He was released 5 years later. He worked at the Institute of past of the State Academy of Sciences. He defended his doctorate in 1964.
In the era of Gomulka and Gierka he frequently spoke urging erstwhile underground soldiers to support the structures of the PRL. He joined the ZBoWiD and the licensed alleged Club of the Leaning Circle.
Jan Rzepecki is inactive created by many naive patriots as a hero and legend of conspiracy. Meanwhile, it was a declared socialist, an insurrectionist, a cyclicalist, and a common coward. He opposed the aid of Poles dying in Volyn and advocated the insurgency which served only the russian cause. After the war, he spent many patriots and underground resources in exchange for mild treatment. He spit on his own organization and the London government. Thanks to his betrayal, the full anti-communist movement was broken and weakened.
