The Pole has preferred to stay out of the media limelight, even while gathering tributes from the Queen, and the British and Polish prime ministers.

“Poland is proud of you,” PM Mateusz Morawiecki wrote on Twitter, while Justice Minister Ziobro is to ask Poland’s president to award the man, identified only as “Łukasz”, with a medal for bravery.
