I don't know much about Polish army, but I do have 2 impressions about it:

1. There was during WWII a lot of Polish army officiers executed by Russian Red Army, i just knew it from Chinese history book, but never digged into it why they did that.

2. I once read Polish was very powerful and occupied part or whole of Russia, don't know details about it.

May you can introduce some info about Polish army?

Also I think Poland will become a 100% pure West European country very soon, and you are already in EU, good future for you.

Whenever I think of the poland, I feel a great saddness for what they endured in past times...

as for their army? I have no clue. But I bet it ain't bad.

Quite true. The Iron Curtain stood in the way before, but they are one of the most devout Catholic countries in Europe. Most of Eastern Europe is Orthodox. So Poland would identify well with the West.

Poland got a bad name for themselves because of something that happened in WW2. Polish cavalry charged the German Panzers with lances and spears. That move didn't reflect too well on Poland.
