Polish WW1 Cavalry

Polish cavalry in the First World War fought within a divided national situation, because an independent Polish state did not exist at the war’s beginning. Poles served in the armies of the partitioning powers and in formations seeking national independence, including units connected with the Polish Legions. Mounted service continued through reconnaissance, security, and fighting under different commands. Poland’s restoration in 1918 then created new national armed forces. Polish mounted formations served under different political authorities during the war, while independence in 1918 created a new national army whose cavalry fought further campaigns in the east. Mounted Polish formations remained prominent in the subsequent war against Soviet Russia.
