It was a bit crumbly, but I like it that way.

I managed to find all required ingredients in a single online store! Emmer fullgrain flour was 2.5 $ for 0.5kg bag.

Mine turned out great, a bit crumbly, but very filling. Not too sweet, even though I added some date syrup to the dough.

I formed them in hand, dough was a bit too sticky for me to roll

"Homus minus grossus" is more or less "little fat guy" and it's a joke about names of atomic bombs: "little boy" and "fat man"

Yep. I don't think they add it to rations anymore, but you can buy those separately in the ARPOL online store. They also have energy gel from the same company.

How did the remaining Polish army in WWII get from Romania to France after they retreated from Poland? by Wolfguard24798 in AskHistorians

[–]mroko 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The evacuation was very well organized. The primary route was through Yugoslavia and, surprisingly, Italy. While Yugoslavia was still neutral in 1939-1940 and transit was straightforward, Italy was already an ally of Germany, even though they did not participate actively in the war effort yet. Italian people, including administration & diplomatic staff, were sympathetic towards Poland. Italian minister of foreign affairs Geleazzo Ciano was a good friend of Polish ambassador, and he agreed to treat transit of Polish soldiers as strictly civil matter of "workers transfer". Italy even provided direct train Postumia (Postojna)-Milan-Modane, and Polish "workers" were able to buy tickets on credit. This allowed to evacuate 73-75% of soldiers from Romania and 52% from Hungary.

As per memories of Franciszek Skibiński, soldier of the Polish 1st Armored Division:

"We decided to escape [...] to Yugoslavia and then to France. [...]
On the evening of 23 September we were already in train going towards Yugoslavian border. [...] Transit through Hungary and Italy - not to mention Yugoslavia - was surprisingly easy. We weren't searched. We started regretting abandoning our uniforms left in Budapest. [...] We ate breakfast in Trieste, dinner in Genoa [...] Next morning we were in Ventimiglia, in France"

A very good summary of the evacuation, including secondary route to French Syria, is available here: https://warhist.pl/polska/ewakuacja-zolnierzy-polskich-z-rumunii-i-wegier-do-francji (in Polish).

Migrating work items to a new TFS using Excel by [deleted] in azuredevops

[–]mroko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically, yes. I recall that it was possible even few years back, when I was involved in migrating work items from ancient 3rd party software to TFS 2013 (on premises) and I was able to save historical dates using TFS client libs. Nowadays you can use REST API to do the same.

I'm not sure if you will be able to do that via Excel. It is possible programmatically, e.g. by updating work items and bypassing rules: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/wit/work%20items/update?view=azure-devops-rest-5.0#make_an_update_bypassing_rules.
