It seems to me that during the 1960's another polish colonel assigned as intel liaison to the Group of Soviet Forces in Germany and the DDR also provided a large quantity of high grade intelligence to the US. I think he was sprung from Berlin by the CIA when the Soviet counterintelligence types were closing in. I think his name was Golenowski or something like that. He died back in the 19705 time frame in exile in the UK. Can you provide anything more on this hero of the Cold War?

Anatoly Golitsyn defected in December 1961 with his wife and daughter, but he was a Russian.

I guess that you are thinking about Michal Goleniewski
