Bartosz Glowacki
Wojciech Bartos(z) Głowacki (1758–1794), known also as Bartosz Głowacki, was a Polish peasant and the most famous member of the kosynierzy (peasant infantry) during the Kościuszko Uprising in 1794. Born as Wojciech Bartosz, he became a Polish national hero during the battle of Racławice on 4 April 1794, when he captured a Russian cannon by putting out the fuse with his hat. For this, he was promoted to the rank of chorąży and received the surname 'Głowacki'. He was mortally wounded during the Battle of Szczekociny on 6 June that year. Since then he has become one of the symbols of the Uprising and Polish valor.
