For most of the First World War Poland served in the battle cruiser New Zealand, taking part in the battles of Heligoland Bight, Dogger Bank and Jutland. He earned a DSC commanding a torpedo boat in the heroic Ostend Raid. After the war Poland saw service in the Russian Civil War and then commanded gunboats in China and destroyers in the Mediterranean.Poland’s service in the Second World War was even more eventful. He was described by historian Donald Macintyre as the most bombed officer in the Royal Navy. He commanded the sloop Black Swan in the Norwegian campaign, which was bombed, yet miraculously survived. As one of Admiral Andrew Cunningham’s trusted captains, Poland commanded the navy’s resupply effort to besieged Tobruk, and then commanded the famous 14th Destroyer Flotilla at the Second Battle of Sirte. At the end of the war, Poland took the Japanese surrender at Sabang. In tracing the course of such a career, Salt in His Veins describes in graphic detail some of the Royal Navy’s greatest deeds and gravest vicissitudes of the twentieth century.\u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cbr\u003e      \u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e    ","brand":"Fonthill Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47638103490734,"sku":null,"price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781036156312.jpg?v=1773604568","url":"https:\/\/rzm.com\/de\/products\/salt-in-his-veins","provider":"RZM Imports Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
