That's my ODA in the above pictures. JMRC, what a fun time. Polish SF was fun to work with. We also had a Polish Recon platoon with us that was a very squared away bunch.

 

[Robal2pl]

Not going to violate OPSEC, but that recon plt was from Recon Regiments or some more regular (division/brigade) units?

There are already major changes in recon units here, seems that our Army will have 3 recon units, includning LRSD-like elements.

Regards,

Not sure. They wore a 'Rozpoznanie' (?) patch and said they were recon... As far as I know, they were a conventional unit. They had some younger guys and were task organized like a conventional platoon.

Think Robal meant 2nd Recon Regiment guys from Hrubieszów.....but I cold be wrong though.

This is their emblem.
