Polish army soldiers are very professional – they will take challenges. This is good news when it comes to the assessment of Poland on the international arena – said Deputy Prime Minister, Head of the Ministry of National Defense Mariusz Błaszczak.
Today, May 3 – Constitution Day, but also an important day for the Polish army. It is important due to the fact that the military consistently builds its strength

There is a great challenge ahead of you, but I am calm, because we have worked together to build the 18th Mechanized Division. I’m sure you’ll do well
Błaszczak turned to one of the promoted, Lieutenant General Jarosław Gromadziński.
18. The Mechanized Division was created “on the ruins” of the 1st Mechanized Division of Warsaw, named after its liquidation in 2011. T. Kosciuszko. This is an important tactical relationship for the security of our country. This year it will be equipped with modern equipment, eg Abrams tanks and this is the task for General Szkutnik

I am grateful to General Szkutnik for preparing the reinforcement package. The general has the right experience to strengthen and expand the 18th Division
he pointed it out.
“There’s War on Our Frontier”
I am also grateful to General Bryś, head of the Central Military Recruiting Center, for the whole recruiting process. The beginning was not easy, but our common achievement is the fact that last year, since the end of compulsory military service, the largest number of young people joined the Polish army. This is very optimistic in the situation in which Europe finds itself. There is a war going on on our border. Strengthening the Polish army in terms of numbers is extremely important for the security of our homeland
he stressed.
General Dariusz Machula is a man who has the right experience to command not only the 2nd Mechanized Brigade, but also a modern training facility. Training Combat Center was carried out according to the American model. Together with Mr. President, we are waiting for the training of soldiers in this center

Polish army soldiers are very professional – they will take challenges. This is good news when it comes to Poland’s rating in the international arena
