The Legion's spokesman, Andrzej Podgórski, said the Legion planned to visit as many cemeteries as possible where its fallen soldiers were buried.
The Legion brings together Polish citizens fighting in Ukraine and Ukrainian citizens of Polish origin serving in the Ukrainian armed forces.
It maintains contact with the families of fallen soldiers, with Roman Catholic parishes providing information about their parishioners who are fighting in Ukraine and those who have been killed at the front.
Volunteers organise free sports training for children of fallen soldiers. The organisation also provides financial assistance and, in some cases, legal support concerning compensation and other payments.
According to Podgórski, Polish citizens who have died fighting on Ukraine's side are not commemorated as widely in Poland as Ukrainian soldiers are in Ukraine. The Legion is therefore working to publicise their stories and remember their sacrifice.
The Legion has prepared an exhibition with volunteers from Belarus and Lithuania. Previously presented in Lviv and Zhytomyr, it currently consists of 11 posters featuring soldiers of Polish origin and Polish citizens.
In Ukraine, the exhibition t is called With Ukraine in Our Hearts. In Poland it will be presented as Heroes of Brotherhood in Arms.
The Legion is in talks about showing it in Polish parliament, where it would feature only Polish citizens who died fighting.
Podgórski called on people to remember those who fought together against the Russian Empire, the Muscovite state and the Soviet Union, as well as those fighting today.
The Legion began as a volunteer movement providing humanitarian aid after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Volunteers who wanted to fight subsequently began coming forward.
