Re: Konstantin Konstantinovich Rokossovsky, Marshall of the Soviet Union
Oh I wouldn't call him a Polish "patriot". He was a Soviet citizen and his loyalty was to the Soviet state and to his career. Many ethnic Germans, Italians, and Japanese fought bravely in the US Army during World War II as American patriots. Of course none of them were named Marshals of the state of their ethnicity.
From what I've read he spent part of his early years in Warsaw but was educated in what later became the USSR.
