According to the newspaper Stars and Stripes, affiliated with the Pentagon, Poles are being prepared for war with Russia with might and main. The publication notes that there are so many people who want to undergo military training in Poland that there are not enough places in training camps.
In Poland, at the initiative of the Ministry of Defense of the country, in connection with the events in Ukraine, the project "Train with the Army" was launched in October, aimed at conducting preparatory courses for all interested citizens of the country. Stars and Stripes writes that the courses were started at the request of numerous residents of the country and will be extended at least until February next year.
According to Polish Major Michal Tomczyk, in October and November, more than 3.5 thousand Polish citizens aged 18 to 65 years took military training courses in training camps across the country. At the same time, Tomchik noted that several thousand more could not do this due to lack of places.
The major said that people are trained in everything that can be useful for survival – how to respond to alarms and use a gas mask, load military weapons, provide medical assistance, get in touch through secure channels, etc.
The publication notes that after the incident with the missile that fell on the border with Ukraine in Poland, fears about the possible involvement of the country as a NATO member in the conflict increased. The newspaper adds that Poland's military events are taking place against the background of the influx of the US military into the country.
The Polish government itself is escalating the situation, trying to prepare the ground for an increase in the quantitative composition of its army.
