Volunteer of the Week: Daniel Markowski

Daniel Markowski (David/Don Marfromski) was a French Canadian and Polish volunteer from Val d'Or, Quebec. He worked in a Medical Unit and the Auto Park in Spain. 

He may have been a member of the Communist Party of Canada at some point, but the International Brigades' records stated that he should not be allowed to join the party. He was accused of deserting twice, and the International Brigades disciplinary company recommended that he be shot. But this recommendation was not taken up, and he survived and returned to Canada in the winter of 1939. He died in in 1981.
