Buzdigan winners set the course, give the tone, inspire

Buzdigans are an absolute extraclass in our environment – the most prestigious discrimination for those who build the safety and defence of the country. The “Polish Armed Forces” edition presents replicas of this 16th-century knighthood badge for over 3 decades. And although the army has undergone a digital and technological revolution at that time, 1 thing remains unchanged: the military's strength is not so much in modern weapons and equipment, but in the making-up of an army of people.

And that's why we've been honoring brave and creative personalities for 30 years. Among our winners are all: from Privates to Generals, from civilian experts to silent heroes of the most dangerous combat missions. We distinguished visionaries changing training programs, eluded by the standards of instructors and those who, at hazard of their own health, pulled others out of oppression.

Regardless of their position or function, Buzdigan winners are a kind of avant-garde. They set the course and give the tone, inspire the environment and truly change the Polish Army. This year's winners hold this advanced level. The squad is truly curious! They're in it. master in aviation logistics, a sea wolf who about the protection of maritime infrastructure knows everything, Medical lifeguardwho prepares military and civilian medics for the most hard scenarios, Unmanned lover, top weapon in chopper aviation, Communication expert and A man whose creativity could have come to light.

I am glad that our statue is not a reward summarizing achievements and crowning long service. On the contrary, I frequently hear that she has become an additional motivation for someone, a driving force for further improvement and work. We are arrogant that Buzdigan “Polish Armed Forces” is accompanied by the award-winning in the further service, that the statue takes an crucial place in their lives, in their offices or in the office offices. I hope that this year's Buzdygan winners will mean as much as for their predecessors. This year's Winners want that the radiance of this award will show you new, ambitious directions and give you fresh opportunities.

The awards gala is not just a celebration of the winners. This is the minute the full editorial squad is waiting for 365 days. It is our unofficial holiday, the festival of “Polish Armed Forces”. So I would like to thank everyone who makes up our publications: the monthly magazine “Polska Armodna”, the portal, our tv and the quarterly “Polska Armodna”. History, “Review of the Armed Forces” and “Bellon Quarterly”. It's your passion that makes us where we are.
