I'll start with the motto of the division, our patron Joseph Piłsudski: "The soldier's business is to make for his homeland a lightning bolt, and erstwhile it has to strike." The adoption of sub-divisions formed by military units of land troops for the purposes of the division is not only an administrative act, but above all a crucial and crucial step towards the further improvement of the division, besides an act of my thanks to everyone who contributed to the implementation of the formation of the 2nd Armoured Legion Brigade - said the commander of the 1st Legion Infantry Division Gen.

RECLAMA


Commander of the 2nd Legion Armoured Brigade Colonel Adam Krysiak in the speech referred to the past of the Polish Legions: - present we see any correctness, 1 could say a similarity to those legionaries who, more than 100 years ago, came from different banners, had 1 thought in their heart - the independency of Poland, so the goal that united them and in all respect. Today, we, the heirs of the Legion traditions, join together into 1 entity whose goal is to form the 2nd Armoured Brigade of the 1st Legion Infantry Division in honor and glory of the Armed Forces. This is our common thought and purpose, and I know that we will accomplish this - said the commander of the 2nd Armoured Legions Brigade Colonel Adam Krysiak.

The event ended with the defilade at the accompaniment of the Military Orchestra from Giżycka.
