Talk:Union of Poles in Germany

Hi I've tried to copy edit this, but this para is confusing me. Can anyone explain?

Members of minority were subject of obligatory military service in German Wehrmacht. In 1945 most of areas populated by Poles were located inside new Polish borders Oder-Neisse line. It is calculated that out of 3500 000 population remaining in Poland, more then 1500 000 belonged to Polish minority. [what populations do these numbers refer to? Does this mean that 3,500 000 people who were living in what was formally German territory were now in Poland, but that only 1500,000 were actually etrhnicly Polish?] Theoretically, they should be granted unconditionally Polish citizenship. Nevertheless, many of them faced difficulties to be recognised by Communist authorities as Poles. Moreover, along with most of Poles, they also shared outrage for communist ideology of the new government and the communist as people [the communist as people? Were there specific communist peoples?]. Unlike most of Polish society, the native Poles sometimes had no other association with Poland then official communism [Do you mean that as new citizens in 1945 their only experience of Poland was under Communism?]. This lead sometimes to crises of identity among native Poles. User:Paul Barlow 11:26, 8 July, 2005 (UTC)
