@ProphetLuong To the son of Vietnam, from a son of Poland. Thank you for your nice comment regarding my fellow countrymen, and my country. I also met a few Vietnamese people and i have the same opinion about you, very nice people. Lets keep the mutual respect for eachother. God bless.
W Polsce zawsze coś się musi złego stać żeby wprowadzono jakieś zmiany - ulepszenia... Po 2 wojnie bynajmniej wyciągnęliśmy wnioski i teraz Trzeba to przyznać mamy porządną armię ;) filmik 5/5 ;]
It is estimated that more than 20% of all special forces and guards of the most important politicians in the world were trained by Polish special forces. And this number is rising.
Those "Old rusty Soviet weapons" are one of the best rifles, with big recoil, but it rarely(or even never)jammes, bullet penetration is so big, that it penetrates the Humvee armor. You don't just listen, do you? Like I've said before, you're to limited.
anyone whos at least a bit smart knows that so again, theres no point in arguing. but i guess what most of us here are trying to say is that armys strenght is not only about the technology or equipment but about people that serve in it. thats what shows most important in the end. and on that subject i could argue with anyone Poles know how to fight and its just not in our nature to give up.
have massive respect for the polish military. Their airmen in WWII were some of the best, 303 sqn was the highest scoring unit in the Battle of Britain and the fact that flying outdated aircraft they held there own against the Germans in the Invasion of Poland (german greater numbers turning the table). further to this the Australians in Tobruk constantly remarked positively as to the fighting spirit of the Poles.
I niech mi ktoś teraz powie że My Polacy armii nie mamy Jesteśmy jak Spartanie, chociaż zawsze w mniejszości, nadrabiamy duchem i wyszkoleniem Sława Polakom !
(Sorry for mistakes,I am just a beginner)I'm from Poland, but I have distance to our"the best army".Actually our equipment is mostly from Soviet Union,or on their licences.But our army is still in good condition, we've buyed those things like Spike missiles,humvee or "rosomak" from Finland,in fact we are not using AK 47,but our Beryls, which are more modern and similar to western types.I think, that we have the best army in central europe, fully modernized to NATO standards.
Naprawdę napawa mnie dumą że mamy takich chłopców...!!!!Wielki szacunek dla nich!!!Dzięki nim my wszyscy możemy spać spokojnie!!!Naprawdę nie ma takich słów które by wyraziły nasze podziękowanie i szacunek dla nich za swoje poświęcenie i determinację fizyczną jak i psychiczną dla nas wszystkich POLAKÓW!!!
Poles fought at the border for political reasons. Plan A was withdraw over two weeks onto the Vistula River defensive line. Germans, however, reached Warsaw in one week. Pland B was to defend the Vistual River line at least for one month to three months. Warsaw gave up by 28SEP1939. Plan C was to defend the marshy high lands by Romania for at least 6 months bringing supplies through the sea port of Cluj in then neutral Romania. It was made obsolete by the Soviet invasion from the East.
vicenzo77 - Is not about what you have and that your army is so rich.. It's all about skill and big courage and love for their country.Even with weak equipment and overnumbered they won many times in history .... (Poland) 85trebuh - Just what he said:), i so totally agree with that m8.
I live in UK 2 years And I know just one english prerson wich says the true about second world war, that british didn't help us. Rest of English who I know don't know enything about history or know own history... Im proud of my country... Im Polish!!
The so--called Folk Germans were Poles with German ancestry forced into the German military, most especially during the Arden counteroofensive or the Battle of the Buldge. Part of the reason that the Germans lost was the high volume of desertion by the "captured comrades" as German soldiers called them: the Poles and the Czechs. They were changing sides in tens of thousands, but not to get shot with their hands high in the air were sorrounding only to other Western Slavs.
@OrzelBialy007 Further, Poles were able to provide their expertise to the breaking of ULTRA codes to France and then Britain...And many Polish pilots flew to defend Britain against Germany in 1941.
Now , we can talk in civilise way. We're neigbours , we need to live in peace. But also russians are our neigbours, we also have to live in peace with them. Same time we have to defend our way of freedom and history. Cheers, I accept your apologize and wish you the best.
it's just like with our mothers...she gived u life so you have to love/respect your mother despite of how she is...right?...right... the same thing is with your homeland...we're sons of Poland, so we have to respect "her"...get it?...of course it's not only respect...it;s deeper...much deeper... are u proud/glad of being lithuanian?..
Defence of Westerplatte (1-7 september) Poland: 220 soldiers (15 dead) 1x 75mm cannon 2x 37mm cannons 4x mortars 81mm some hand guns GERMANY: 1500 soldiers 8x 150mm Howitzer 4x 210mm mortars support of SMS "Schleswig-Holstein" and another ship. We can fight long but out of ammo...
Zauważ tylko, że to było 70 lat temu, dzisiaj Rosja nie ma takiego potencjału gospodarczego i zasobów ludzkich, więc nie może sobie pozwolić na politykę typu: "u nas luda mnogo". Nowoczesna armia, to bardzo kosztowna sprawa i bez odpowiedniego zaplecza gospodarczego nie ma się żadnych szans, żeby ją utrzymać na przyzwoitym poziomie, a co dopiero wdrożyć nowe technologie, które mogłyby w miarę dobrze konkurować z niemieckimi czołgami, amerykańskim lotnictwem etc.
They may not be "The Best Army" as this Polish patriot proclaims, but as far as I'm concerned, after having spent 29 months in Iraq, they are one of the best. I don't know what you mean by pulling out in a week. Poland has been in Iraq since the beginning, and they're still there. Who else is?
To be exact, the Polish view is as follows: World War Two in Europe was started by two great friends: Hitler and Stalin by a joined invasion of Poland with a minute support from the Slovaks in Sptember, 1939. As of 1943, the Poles decided that Stalin is a lesser evil, and besides over 200,000 Poles already fighting along side the British Commonwealth (by 1945, 300,000 many surviovrs of 1939 + Folk German deserters) in the West, a Polish Army fighting along side of the Soviets was created.
The problem it's I have never listened spoken about GROM among the best forces special of the world and this unit isn't certainly as high as the Americans you are maybe formed by had but it's not certainly enough to say to you so good, you are there very far! And you are very far from the best special strength of Europe;)
there were few reasons. here u are most important ones: -poland got independance back in 1918 so there was just 21 years to organise army and prapare to IIWW -poland has been traited by france and UK in 1939 (they didnt react to german attack on poland althought they signed military help pact) -poland had two very strong enemies: 1st september germany attacked in west and 17th sept. soviet army attacked in east. we knew about danger in east so we couldnt direct all forces against german
Polska armia najlepsza - udowodniliśmy to podczas II wojny światowej... Myślę, że lepiej zająć się przemysłem, bo jak już wszystko sprzedamy to i tak nie będzie z czego utrzymać tej wspaniałej armii uzbrojonej w ruskie kałachy, szczycącej się zakupem resztek amerykańskiego sprzętu latającego i opancerzonego. Kiedyś może i Polska była potęgą, ale trzeba się szybko ocknąć, jeżeli chcemy by nasze prawnuki rzeczywiście żyły w Polsce, o jakiej mówicie.
I have noticed on the US History Channel; the Brits and the French are in denile! The Poles published a booklet with conclusions from the Polish Campaign'1939 in Polish, French, and English. The Brits and the French refused to read it! The French Campaign was lost before it even began. The Polish military doctrine was based on counterattack! The Brittish and French on defense, and ... even the Soviets understood that defensive doctrine meant a nearly automatic defeat!
They either claim that the Poles lost because they deployed part of the military to the border, or because they did try to counterattack (Battle of Bzura, or Battle of Kutno in German nomenclature: the counterattack was successful for up to a week; the troops wets from Vistula river eventually got double enveloped; but only 50% went P.O.W. because the Polish military required its soldier to possess Civilians to avoid going P.O.W. 50% run away in civilians!).
Polish military history is an epic, even more so because they have always been outnumbered for centuries, but still produced results For any Americans here, let's not forget that the foundations of West Point and the US Cavalry were both created by Polish war heroes Kosciuszko and Pulaski. The Polish army was arguably the best during WW2 but was largely outnumbered & outgunned This said after the destruction and defeat of Poland in WW2 & 45 years of communism, the Polish army today is a joke.
One thing comes to mind "Battle of Westerplatte" the Polish Army gave Germans a serious bloody nose. Never invade Poland unless you want your ass kicked that badly.
Only in one thing you're wrong you got help of one US infantry division in breaking the siege of Paris (thank to that help insurgents didn't were defeated like in Warsaw). In Warsaw our Armia Krajowa tried to do the same but due to lack of allied help (only polish bomber squadrons performed few armament drops, soviets didn't anything to help fightning troops) Warsaw was defending through 63 days, against german army with support of tanks, planes and few elite SS units.
można tak myśleć, gdyby doszło do konfliktu zbrojnego Polski z jakimś państwem posiadającym broń jądrową NATO by nawet palcem nie kiwneło by wysłać swoich żołnierzy, co najwyżej by nas wsparli dodatkowym orężem, ale to moje przypuszczenia...
It should have been "components." Anyway: How to combine tradition, toughness, and reasearch into the sports science? Great example: SSG (at present almost certainly SFC Marc Oravsky): I want them to suffer on the fast long run, but I know that jogging just adds empty miles and too many miles cause injuries? Answer: SSG/SFC Oravsky's method: Do not jog! Instead get your man to do: pushup's, situp's, duck walk, or Iron Mikes! Make them tough, but make them tough with wisdom!
Maybe "The best army" in the mind of author didn't meant best technology, equipment etc. I'm sure that everyone favourizes army of his country, no matter how strong or technologically advanced they are.
i guess what i mean is the spirit and will to fight, that kind of things but you can't really measure them so you can only assume on your own experience.. but of course you're right, i said from the very begining that we are far behind. at least our ordinary troops cause special forces (GROM) are among the best, even without the equipment. i would say top 10 at least! btw, where from Holland are you?
1st of all - sorry to disappoint you there mate but i wasn't trying to answer to anything you wrote before simply because i have no idea what you have written in particular, i just made a general comment but don't worry, it's ok.. haha 2nd of all - i never said we are the only ones that might feel that way, i just said that's what makes our army special, obviously when our equipment is not so great. if you'd read carefully, instead of calling people stupid, you'd probably understand!
Polish victories? A full list it's too long so i'll recite here only victories that occured in WWII. -Battle of Mokra (one of first battles in '39) -Battle of England -Battle of Narvik -Sunk of Bismarck (polish navy ship has localized the Bismarck) -Battle of Tobruq -Battle of Falaise pocket -Battle of Monte Cassino -Capturing of Wilhelmshaven -Battle of Berlin So, now is your turn, what was french victories of WWII?
Paulitolt...u won't understand what are we proud of if you're not lithuanian patriot man... For what we're ready to fight and die? for greedy politicians?...nope...for places where our fathers and forefather grew up, lived...died... For 2 most important colours in life of every Pole - white and red... and for beautiful terrains, man...once we were living, fihting and dying together...we were strong...very strong...and we were friends...Poles died for lithuania, and lithuanians died for Poland...
Stalins main reason not to invade Poland on 3September1939 as he promised Hitler was? Number 1: He wanted for the capitalist states to bleed each other out; and he wanted the Germans to suffer as high losses as possible because he knew that they eventually would go to war against each other for political and "Living Room" reasons; 2) He might have knowen that the Brits and the French promised Poland an expeditionary force by the end of 2nd week of war; and they did declare war on ...3SEP1939!
Najwięcej o wosku wiedzą ci, którzy nigdy w nim nie byli. Co wy wiecie wyszkoleniu, uzbrojeniu, i stanie polskiej armii. Na ten temat powinni wypowiadać się tylko i wylącznie ludzie którzy coś o tym wiedzą, i ci którzy to przeżyli. Ja służyłem w kawalerii powietrznej 6 lat, i wiem co to jest polska armia, lepszej na świecie nie ma.
@TequilAndLime Znaczy mówiłem ogólnie że są nowe modele ale niejestem pewnien jakie my mamy, przecierz Panzerkampfwageny IV były podczas drugiej wojny światowej
@G0PST0P They had skills but They had too few military equipment (and in most outdated). We talking about skills, read about Polish pilots in 302, 303 Squadrons (Battle of Britain 1940).
Are you kidding? They were the toughest fighters in WW2. Bushido lead to most to all deaths of japanese soldiers. They inflicted the most casualties on us. Want to know the projected numbers of allied soldiers killed for the invasion of mainland japan? 3 quarters of a million men. 750,000 lives.
As of 1939-1940: German and Japanese doctrines: Attack Polish and Soviet: Counterattack Anglo--French: Defend I understand the French. They had a great reason to build the huge line of bunkers. Even Napoleon himself said that the French are great as long as they suffer on defeat; once they get defeated twice, they are useless! Polish units fighting in France in 1940 (about half) found themselves fighting abandoned by the French; half of time only because of the French--German armistice.
really? cause to me it seemed like you were talking to me. never mind though.. listen dude, i'm sure there is a lot of patriotism in French people, as well as in American and any other. but the history shows that Polish people were willing to give their lives for their country and for their land always and sorry to say that but i can't tell the same about French for example
1-4 INF REG of Hohenfels was not defeated, number for number (we count our MILES I/II T-80's at par with Abrams A1/2/2 Advanced, we count our MILES /II .50 cal BRM's as equal to Bradley the "Tank Inafntry" Fighting Vehicle, etc.) by a domestic (US Marines included) or foreign (Royal Marines, the Poles, etc.) compnents for the last 21 years as of day of my departure on 21APR07. The undefeated Lions of the Mountain. Most of my NCO's were top notch. The Specialist Mafia squared me away!
To be honest no military on Earth have ever achieve a complete victory against forces defending mountains covered by thick forest: no one has as of yet done it! The forest covered mountains are the greatest equalizer on Earth (9 out of 10; JMRC Hohenfels does not even try to put too much camo on the vehicles or "7th Serb Waffen SS" OPFOR guys, the "confused bad guys; rooting for their motral enemies"). The Germans failed in Caucasus when otherwise routing the Soviets, US in Korea and Vietnam.
Mamy predyspozycje aby zostac jedną z najlepszych armii swiata,jednak niemamy do tego warunkow ani pieniedzy...młodzi chcą sie szkolic zdobywac doświadczenie ale nie za taką kase...z doswiadczenia wiemy ze My bedziemy na !lini ognia jezeli chodzi o Europe w koncu niejeden narod chciał nas zrownac z ziemią i nie udalo sie nikomu!!!.
Every adult in Finland knows what was the price of our independence. it is taught in schools. We have national call-ups. We are tough. Dedicated and patriotic people. We are not in the frontline. You are. Nordic will back you if necessary. You are catholic. We are evangelic-lutherans. Doesn't matter. Most of us does not believe in god.
@khulik Tez bym tak chciał. Pamiętam jak promowali wojsko zawodowe parę lat temu, sporo osób poszło na to. Okazało się potem, że cięcia budżetowe wprowadzono i nie dość, że nie mogli się zaciągnąć to jeszcze wywalili sporo osób już służących.
Acctualy poland has a good advantage of the western/eastern goverments it can buy its weapons from they got leopard 2 tanks from germany also german G38e assoult rifles witch are good 50 cal barreta sniper rifles american humvees .. there a army like the dutch army is or sweden train a good bunch of guys and for good and propper gear look for some of the best gear available then you get quite a high-tech professional army witch can take on a army twice its number
@adameleryk a może.. i masz rację.. po prostu znalazłem jakiś ranking.. w necie.. byc moze były to.. czołgi z IIWS.. nie znam się na tym... widze jednak co się dzieje .. jaka jest nasza armia... spójrz teraz co się dzieje... z naszą flotą... praktycznie.. nie będziemy już mieli żadnej floty... Pozdrawiam..
Who told you that f22 raptor still a protoype?? it is already in service and seen flying over our airspace. i dont think it will be sold to other countries. its still exclusive only for u.s. airforce.
hahaha if you want lol To make you the comparison our trainings (French) is so considered that many countries of Europe come to entrainer with force them special French it even seems to me to have heard about Polish special strengths to come to perfect it;) and you? You have foreign special strengths which come to entrainer at home? Lol
Drogi studencie piątego roku.Za dużo błędów ortograficznych i interpunkcyjnych.Ale do rzeczy.Za 30 lat gdy pozycja geopolityczna Polski ulegnie zmianie (błagam tylko nie pisz że to nie możliwe), wierzę że z dumą wyprawisz swoje dzieci żeby stanęły w obronie najjaśniejszej styropianowej.Oczywiście bez odpowiedniego uzbrojenia i wyszkolenia.Po co myśleć dziś skoro można być mięsem armatnim jutro.I na koniec jeżeli tak ci tu dobrze,to dobrze ci tak!
And you know? One of your greaters(if he wasn't the greatest)leaders, Napoleon Bonaparte said "For my Poles there is no such thing as impossible." And then Polish chevau-legers made through the Somosierra Pass. NOT French.
A niby co powiedziałem? GROM to wojskowa jednostka specjalna czasami współpracująca z policją, a SWAT to policyjna jednostka specjalna, lecz nadal różnią się bardzo od siebie.
I don't know if they are the BEST army but im sure they are still a tough army...and why does everyone have to say that their country's army is the best? Are you fighting in that army? Have you fought wars against actual other countries/armies? Probably not. This is a cool video, just like it or dont watch it.
@adameleryk Nie wiedziałem ... że mamy też nowe modele Leoparda... ale z tym rankingiem to chyba nie o Leoparda chodzi... ale o inny niemiecki czołg... Mk Panzer IV
Wiem ,wiem już po wyborach ,ale działać trzeba ,Panowie prosiłbym Panów o zapoznanie się z poglądami Pana Janusza Korwina Mikke ,szczerze się przyznam ,że do czasu gdy nie obejrzałem jego wypowiedzi na you tube ,moja opinia o nim nie była najlepsza. Sława Panowie.
Dopóki żyjesz i my żyjemy nigdy nie będzie po Naszej Ojczyźnie i naszym Narodzie.
Nie ma cwaniaka na Polaka!!! Kto tak uważa, kciuk w górę!!
Polish Army one of the best! Greetings from Russia!
My was in the army for 2 years
Btw we are a polish family
@khulik im glad somebody understands that, there's no the best, there's follow the order, survive,and come back home to loved ones.
Każda wypracowana złotówka, powinna być przeznaczona na obronność naszej OJCZYZNY. Niepodległa Polska, to wartość nadrzędna.
There are many videos like this of many countries and they all make each country's army look good and strong

The so--called Folk Germans were Poles with German ancestry forced into the German military, most especially during the Arden counteroofensive or the Battle of the Buldge.

Tak. Dokładnie. Bo my, naród polski, zawsze będziemy głupi.

The Austrian special unit "Kobra" is pretty good too. The Americans copied Kobra's training program and uses it for the marines nowadays.
it's just like with our mothers...she gived u life so you have to love/respect your mother despite of how she is...right?...right...
the same thing is with your homeland...we're sons of Poland, so we have to respect "her"...get it?...of course it's not only respect...it;s deeper...much deeper...
are u proud/glad of being lithuanian?..

@ProphetLuong u r a big man and many people from your country live in Poland now all the best 4 u!!!!
The problem it's I have never listened spoken about GROM among the best forces special of the world and this unit isn't certainly as high as the Americans you are maybe formed by had but it's not certainly enough to say to you so good, you are there very far!

And Vice Versa ! Always and full respect for your nation. One of the europe country who is brave.
greetings from Poland.
there were few reasons. here u are most important ones:
-poland got independance back in 1918 so there was just 21 years to organise army and prapare to IIWW
-poland has been traited by france and UK in 1939 (they didnt react to german attack on poland althought they signed military help pact)
-poland had two very strong enemies: 1st september germany attacked in west and 17th sept. soviet army attacked in east. we knew about danger in east so we couldnt direct all forces against german
Polska armia najlepsza - udowodniliśmy to podczas II wojny światowej...
Myślę, że lepiej zająć się przemysłem, bo jak już wszystko sprzedamy to i tak nie będzie z czego utrzymać tej wspaniałej armii uzbrojonej w ruskie kałachy, szczycącej się zakupem resztek amerykańskiego sprzętu latającego i opancerzonego.
Kiedyś może i Polska była potęgą, ale trzeba się szybko ocknąć, jeżeli chcemy by nasze prawnuki rzeczywiście żyły w Polsce, o jakiej mówicie.
Poland is an awesome country there is no denial about that, But you can't say we did "nothing" in the war as americans.
I have noticed on the US History Channel; the Brits and the French are in denile!
The Poles published a booklet with conclusions from the Polish Campaign'1939 in Polish, French, and English.
The Brits and the French refused to read it!
The French Campaign was lost before it even began.
The Polish military doctrine was based on counterattack! The Brittish and French on defense, and ... even the Soviets understood that defensive doctrine meant a nearly automatic defeat!
They either claim that the Poles lost because they deployed part of the military to the border, or because they did try to counterattack (Battle of Bzura, or Battle of Kutno in German nomenclature: the counterattack was successful for up to a week; the troops wets from Vistula river eventually got double enveloped; but only 50% went P.O.W. because the Polish military required its soldier to possess Civilians to avoid going P.O.W. 50% run away in civilians!).
Polish military history is an epic, even more so because they have always been outnumbered for centuries, but still produced results
For any Americans here, let's not forget that the foundations of West Point and the US Cavalry were both created by Polish war heroes Kosciuszko and Pulaski.

I am so proud of how Poland is Kicking Ass in Afghanistan. Too bad the American Liberal Media don't see that.. or maybe that's better that they don't!
I have never heard about the Polish courage, in the history and today but if you like say this... good for you
@guyfeigin
practice is the truth criteria, Karl Marks said
so combat readiness of the army and its capabilities are defined in the fighting
It should have been "components."
Anyway:
How to combine tradition, toughness, and reasearch into the sports science?
Great example:
SSG (at present almost certainly SFC Marc Oravsky):
I want them to suffer on the fast long run, but I know that jogging just adds empty miles and too many miles cause injuries?
Answer:
SSG/SFC Oravsky's method:
Do not jog! Instead get your man to do:
pushup's, situp's, duck walk, or Iron Mikes!
Make them tough, but make them tough with wisdom!
The pride of Poland. Always strong and brave. White-red army!
ProphetLuong dziękuje że doceniasz mój naród polski . :)
Maybe "The best army" in the mind of author didn't meant best technology, equipment etc.
I'm sure that everyone favourizes army of his country, no matter how strong or technologically advanced they are.
i guess what i mean is the spirit and will to fight, that kind of things but you can't really measure them so you can only assume on your own experience.. but of course you're right, i said from the very begining that we are far behind. at least our ordinary troops cause special forces (GROM) are among the best, even without the equipment. i would say top 10 at least!
btw, where from Holland are you?
1st of all - sorry to disappoint you there mate but i wasn't trying to answer to anything you wrote before simply because i have no idea what you have written in particular, i just made a general comment but don't worry, it's ok.. haha
2nd of all - i never said we are the only ones that might feel that way, i just said that's what makes our army special, obviously when our equipment is not so great. if you'd read carefully, instead of calling people stupid, you'd probably understand!
Polish victories? A full list it's too long so i'll recite here only victories that occured in WWII.
-Battle of Mokra (one of first battles in '39)
-Battle of England
-Battle of Narvik
-Sunk of Bismarck (polish navy ship has localized the Bismarck)
-Battle of Tobruq
-Battle of Falaise pocket
-Battle of Monte Cassino
-Capturing of Wilhelmshaven
-Battle of Berlin
So, now is your turn, what was french victories of WWII?
Paulitolt...u won't understand what are we proud of if you're not lithuanian patriot man...
For what we're ready to fight and die?
for greedy politicians?...nope...for places where our fathers and forefather grew up, lived...died...
For 2 most important colours in life of every Pole - white and red...
and for beautiful terrains,
man...once we were living, fihting and dying together...we were strong...very strong...and we were friends...Poles died for lithuania, and lithuanians died for Poland...
Stalins main reason not to invade Poland on 3September1939 as he promised Hitler was?
Number 1: He wanted for the capitalist states to bleed each other out; and he wanted the Germans to suffer as high losses as possible because he knew that they eventually would go to war against each other for political and "Living Room" reasons;
2) He might have knowen that the Brits and the French promised Poland an expeditionary force by the end of 2nd week of war; and they did declare war on ...3SEP1939!
Najwięcej o wosku wiedzą ci, którzy nigdy w nim nie byli. Co wy wiecie wyszkoleniu, uzbrojeniu, i stanie polskiej armii. Na ten temat powinni wypowiadać się tylko i wylącznie ludzie którzy coś o tym wiedzą, i ci którzy to przeżyli. Ja służyłem w kawalerii powietrznej 6 lat, i wiem co to jest polska armia, lepszej na świecie nie ma.
nice vid. But I wonder about the title, because I still dont know what is best on Polish Army.
@TequilAndLime Znaczy mówiłem ogólnie że są nowe modele ale niejestem pewnien jakie my mamy, przecierz Panzerkampfwageny IV były podczas drugiej wojny światowej
@G0PST0P They had skills but They had too few military equipment (and in most outdated). We talking about skills, read about Polish pilots in 302, 303 Squadrons (Battle of Britain 1940).
@MatigcaSSman I"m a Canadian/American and I think the Brits helped a lot.
It returns to what I said! The Poles are not capable of won a victory alone!
That was my wife; she eats a lot of Polish Beef or Turkey susage.
Poles are super trained, and endured terrible, have eggs
Za taki nędzny stan podziękujmy PO.
Are you kidding? They were the toughest fighters in WW2. Bushido lead to most to all deaths of japanese soldiers. They inflicted the most casualties on us. Want to know the projected numbers of allied soldiers killed for the invasion of mainland japan? 3 quarters of a million men. 750,000 lives.
As of 1939-1940:
German and Japanese doctrines: Attack
Polish and Soviet: Counterattack
Anglo--French: Defend
I understand the French. They had a great reason to build the huge line of bunkers. Even Napoleon himself said that the French are great as long as they suffer on defeat; once they get defeated twice, they are useless!
Polish units fighting in France in 1940 (about half) found themselves fighting abandoned by the French; half of time only because of the French--German armistice.
@Jyrki1964 what do you mean you have written your sentence:"but i don't think it's gonna be a real match for Finnish forces"
really? cause to me it seemed like you were talking to me. never mind though..
listen dude, i'm sure there is a lot of patriotism in French people, as well as in American and any other. but the history shows that Polish people were willing to give their lives for their country and for their land always and sorry to say that but i can't tell the same about French for example
1-4 INF REG of Hohenfels was not defeated, number for number (we count our MILES I/II T-80's at par with Abrams A1/2/2 Advanced, we count our MILES /II .50 cal BRM's as equal to Bradley the "Tank Inafntry" Fighting Vehicle, etc.) by a domestic (US Marines included) or foreign (Royal Marines, the Poles, etc.) compnents for the last 21 years as of day of my departure on 21APR07.
The undefeated Lions of the Mountain.
Most of my NCO's were top notch.
The Specialist Mafia squared me away!
Ten kto wymyslil tytul do tego filmiku mial niezle poczucie humoru...Z calym szacunkiem...
To be honest no military on Earth have ever achieve a complete victory against forces defending mountains covered by thick forest: no one has as of yet done it!
The forest covered mountains are the greatest equalizer on Earth (9 out of 10; JMRC Hohenfels does not even try to put too much camo on the vehicles or "7th Serb Waffen SS" OPFOR guys, the "confused bad guys; rooting for their motral enemies").
The Germans failed in Caucasus when otherwise routing the Soviets, US in Korea and Vietnam.
Mamy predyspozycje aby zostac jedną z najlepszych armii swiata,jednak niemamy do tego warunkow ani pieniedzy...młodzi chcą sie szkolic zdobywac doświadczenie ale nie za taką kase...z doswiadczenia wiemy ze My bedziemy na !lini ognia jezeli chodzi o Europe w koncu niejeden narod chciał nas zrownac z ziemią i nie udalo sie nikomu!!!.
Every adult in Finland knows what was the price of our independence. it is taught in schools. We have national call-ups. We are tough. Dedicated and patriotic people.
We are not in the frontline. You are. Nordic will back you if necessary. You are catholic. We are evangelic-lutherans. Doesn't matter. Most of us does not believe in god.
@khulik Tez bym tak chciał. Pamiętam jak promowali wojsko zawodowe parę lat temu, sporo osób poszło na to. Okazało się potem, że cięcia budżetowe wprowadzono i nie dość, że nie mogli się zaciągnąć to jeszcze wywalili sporo osób już służących.

Hmm tell me in which of those battles that i enlisted in my previous post french army have fight?
Acctualy poland has a good advantage of the western/eastern goverments it can buy its weapons from they got leopard 2 tanks from germany also german G38e assoult rifles witch are good 50 cal barreta sniper rifles american humvees .. there a army like the dutch army is or sweden train a good bunch of guys and for good and propper gear look for some of the best gear available then you get quite a high-tech professional army witch can take on a army twice its number
Pamiętaj, że siłą naszej armii jest sojusz. Przecież takie NATO, taka Anglia, Francja, już nie powiem USA i Niemcy, nie dadzą nas ruszyć nikomu...
@ledzeplad Of course not. I'm just talking about difference between invasion on Poland in 1939 and invasion on Britain - that's the point.
@adameleryk a może.. i masz rację.. po prostu znalazłem jakiś ranking.. w necie.. byc moze były to.. czołgi z IIWS.. nie znam się na tym... widze jednak co się dzieje .. jaka jest nasza armia... spójrz teraz co się dzieje... z naszą flotą... praktycznie.. nie będziemy już mieli żadnej floty... Pozdrawiam..
Who told you that f22 raptor still a protoype?? it is already in service and seen flying over our airspace. i dont think it will be sold to other countries. its still exclusive only for u.s. airforce.
Wery nice!Good we have Poland in NATO!keep up the good work!
Polish army the most powerfull army!
respect from georgia :-)
hahaha if you want lol
To make you the comparison our trainings (French) is so considered that many countries of Europe come to entrainer with force them special French it even seems to me to have heard about Polish special strengths to come to perfect it;) and you? You have foreign special strengths which come to entrainer at home? Lol
Drogi studencie piątego roku.Za dużo błędów ortograficznych i interpunkcyjnych.Ale do rzeczy.Za 30 lat gdy pozycja geopolityczna Polski ulegnie zmianie (błagam tylko nie pisz że to nie możliwe), wierzę że z dumą wyprawisz swoje dzieci żeby stanęły w obronie najjaśniejszej styropianowej.Oczywiście bez odpowiedniego uzbrojenia i wyszkolenia.Po co myśleć dziś skoro można być mięsem armatnim jutro.I na koniec jeżeli tak ci tu dobrze,to dobrze ci tak!
And you know? One of your greaters(if he wasn't the greatest)leaders, Napoleon Bonaparte said "For my Poles there is no such thing as impossible." And then Polish chevau-legers made through the Somosierra Pass. NOT French.
A niby co powiedziałem? GROM to wojskowa jednostka specjalna czasami współpracująca z policją, a SWAT to policyjna jednostka specjalna, lecz nadal różnią się bardzo od siebie.
I don't know if they are the BEST army but im sure they are still a tough army...and why does everyone have to say that their country's army is the best? Are you fighting in that army? Have you fought wars against actual other countries/armies? Probably not. This is a cool video, just like it or dont watch it.
@adameleryk Nie wiedziałem ... że mamy też nowe modele Leoparda... ale z tym rankingiem to chyba nie o Leoparda chodzi... ale o inny niemiecki czołg... Mk Panzer IV
Jeżeli będziesz cierpliwy,to być może historia pozwoli Tobie zostać prawdziwym bohaterem.Masz rację,każdy jest potrzebny,nawet świr i dewiant.
hi miiss,
yes germany is a nice cool country and poland, too
