@Cunard A bit atypical request, but you are much better than me with newspaper sources: I am looking for "Metropolitan Obituaries: Antoni Atefan Koper, 83, hero in Polish resistance". The Washington Times. 15 June 1990., cited here, to check what it mentions about Koper's wartime resistance activities and particularly, afficilation (Home Army/Armia Krajowa is claimed in the article but no source I can find verifies this claim).

Hi Piotrus (talk·contribs). I've added a link the obituary to the article. Here is the obituary:
@Cunard Thank you. This source also does not state he was in the Home Army, which for the record is likely but needs to be proven with a source. I'll change article to say that he was a resistance member, which the source supports. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:48, 27 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
