The official AHF Poland quiz thread
We've had several different quizes running here in the forum for a while with great success and this new section has been open for a long while without one, so I'm starting one here too.
The rules are very simple:
The first one to post the correct answer to a question, posts a new question (must be on Poland during the 1919-1945 period) and so on.

Good evening, Ironmachine!
Well, this is really Russian dreadnought, but of another class. Hint 1: look to the South from the Baltic. Hint 2: look for the person, not for the ship.
