Legion Plans to Aid Poles in Naturalization Push
The American Legion is urged to assist a group of American-born men serving with the Polish army in seeking easier naturalization. Known as Huller's Army, they fought with Allied forces and argue they earned citizenship through their war service. Some were Polish citizens under enemy rule and labeled as enemy aliens, though they fought alongside the Allies. Efforts aim to ease naturalization rules for these men and for prior U S citizens.
