Edward Taraszkiewicz, codename "Żelazny" (born January 22, 1921, in Duisburg, died October 6, 1951, in Zbereże nad Bugiem) was a commander of the mobile partisan units of the Freedom and Independence Association operating in the Chełm-Włodawa region.

Inside the chapel of Second Lieutenant Edward Taraszkiewicz, there is a commemorative plaque, funded by the LGH Association of the Cursed Soldiers of the Lublin Region. Thanks to the support of the Lublin Branch of the Institute of National Remembrance, an information plaque was also unveiled at the chapel, initiated by the LGH Association and financed and installed by the Lublin Branch of the Institute of National Remembrance. The information on this plaque was prepared in accordance with the latest research conducted by the Lublin Branch of the Institute of National Remembrance. The plaque presents a brief historical outline of the events of October 6, 1951, compiled by IPN employee Grzegorz Makus, as well as archival photographs and operational sketches of the Internal Security Corps (KBW) from the operation against "Żelazny" from the IPN archives.
