Background

Scope and content:

The Maciej Milczanowski photographs collection consists of 472 photographs, divided into 10 subject groupings by Milczanowski. The photographs depict Coalition Forces patrols or convoys, bases, Iraqi archeological sites, and scenes from the daily life of officers and soldiers: work in the headquarters, training, recreation, and encounters with the Iraqi civilian population.

The photographs were taken at the end of 2005 and beginning of 2006. Milczanowski took all of the photographs except those in Folder 6, Convoy Camp Echo - Camp Victory (Baghdad), which were taken at his request by Captain Nikolay Niedialkov from the Bulgarian Battalion under Polish Brigade command.

Also included in the collection are some related digital files, including Milczanowski's descriptions of the photographs and two PowerPoints.

Milczanowski's groupings, numbering, and descriptions have been maintained in this finding aid, with minor edits for clarity.
