Please note that in 2014 one of Poland’s highest honours was awarded to the family of a late Angus peer. Here is a video clip where I am singing at the launch of a campaign for a memorial to General Maczek hosted and initiated by the late Peter Fraser, Baron Fraser of Carmyllie at the New Club in Edinburgh Link here :) Katy Carr sings at the launch of the Memorial for General Maczek I look forward to sharing with you a song that I have written about the great General Maczekas well as sharing with you about the plans to erect a long awaited memorial to General Maczek in Edinburgh, Scotland. Below is my member badge and I AM SO VERY PROUD to share a picture of it with you. Created in February 1942 at Duns in Scotland, it was commanded by General Stanisław Maczek and at its peak numbered approximately 16,000 soldiers. I am very proud to announce that on December 16th 2014 in Warsaw, Poland I was awarded honorary membership of The Polish 1st Armoured Division (Polish 1 Dywizja Pancerna), the Allied military unit during World War II. I absolutely LOVE what you have all done and I know that I am going to be very proud of this new album xxx I think it's going to be an amazing year !!! :) I know that I am particularly excited because I will be releasing my 5th album later this year entitled 'Polonia.'
