Podgórski Tadeusz "Jantar"

Born September 15, 1919, in Zakroczym in a working-class family that moved to Warsaw (to Wola). He graduated in 1939 from the Technical and Railroad High School, receiving the title of technician – mechanic. He was active in the ZHP.

In September 1939, he was at a scout camp and returned to Warsaw in October 1939. He took up work as a laborer while studying economics and sociology at the clandestine University of Warsaw.

He became associated with the "Zadruga" circle by participating in meetings of the "kosynierów" group. He cooperated with Tadeusz Jędrzejewski "Wszebor". In 1941, he was a supporter of moving to active action and, according to his own account, organized the "Zadruga Action Group", which was dissolved after a few months due to Stachniuk's opposition. This episode may be related to similar activities by Robert Grabowski "Radgast", but there is no closer evidence for this beyond the coincidence in time.
