government campaign?
Poland was a Communist country, so the party decided, not any government. Xx236 (talk) 09:03, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Primary sources / OR
I tagged this section for primary sources, as it relies on this IPN catalog entry. Even putting aside the question of IPN reliability on these matters, the dossier entry conflicts with itself - e.g. he's on leave 6.12.1948-1.09.1950 partially overlapping with being in the UN delegation 6.10.1949-24.06.1951. Some of the text on top of the IPN entry doesn't match the service record on the bottom. Furthermore, I tagged this for OR as some of the text doesn't appear in the dossier itself (e.g. the responsibilities of these various units) - it is unclear from where this came from and whether it was accurate at the time of his service (as organizations do change).

 * Can you quote parts of the text that may be OR? I'll try to review them. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 11:18, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Large portions of:"Krakowski returned to Poland where he joined the structures of the new Polish communist government in 1945, taking the entry courses for the Polish Workers' Party that year. He joined the Ministry of Public Security, and in 1946, he was a government agent in the small Zionist Polish Jewish political party ; in 1949, Krakowski was an employee of the Ministry's Department VII (Intelligence). From 1949 to 1951 he was attached to the Polish Delegation at the United Nations, while working for the Polish military (Polish People's Army) intelligence agency (the ). From 1951 to 1956 he worked at the intelligence agency that was successor to the Second Department, the, in the sections responsible for intelligence operations related to the Americas, Asia, and the Middle East. Afterward, he took a course in the, then was attached to the Aviation Inspectorate at the . He was eventually promoted to the rank of major." And more sepcifically, the whole segment from 1949 to 1956 is particularly very loosely based on the source (for 1948-1951 the source conflicts with itself, and 1951-1956 describes the assignment in a manner that isn't in the source).
