Polish Armed Forces Day
The Polish Contingent invited their multinational partners to help celebrate Polish Armed Forces Day at Camp Bondsteel. Soldiers participated in a 3 km run in the morning, a formal ceremony, and tug-of-war/ volleyball competitions in the evening. Poland celebrates Polish Armed Forces Day on Aug. 15, which commemorates the anniversary of the 1920 Battle of Warsaw (also known as the “Miracle on the Vistula”) and celebrates the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.
