On my recent trip to Warsaw, I spent some time filming guns in the collection of the Polish Army Museum. In an effort to create something of a library of museum tours, I made sure to take some time to film a short virtual tour of the exhibits for you - note that I did this after the museum had closed, so there is nobody else in the halls.
Also note that the museum is in the process of slowly moving to a new location, so some of their exhibits are not on display (notably material form the 19th century). They do still have a full Winger Hussar on his mount, though! Outside the main building is a vehicle park with a very cool assortment of armor and aircraft, but the inclement weather prevented me from filming that (sorry).
If you find yourself in Warsaw, it is definitely worth stopping in to see the museum.I found the sections on Polish underground manufacturing and the Warsaw Uprising particularly unique. This museum may not have the popular awareness of the dedicated Warsaw Uprising Museum, but it has artifacts that are every bit as good (if not better, but you didn't hear me say that...). You can find the Museum's web site here, in both Polish and English:

Plus such a shame you can't film the outside, as there's a line up of Soviet vehicles outside of the building. Too bad you didn't film up to the ceiling when you're in the WWII exhibition room, as there's a series of Polish standards.

There was nothing heroic, other then individual actions, about the Warsaw uprising. It was a despicable betrayal by the exiled government of polish people. They had reports from AK, that it would fail and cause mass casualties. The goal of establishing control of Poland by AK before the advansing Soviet Union sets up temporary administrative structures was impossible. The western allies were nowhere near, the US weapon drops only marginal effectiveness, most going to benefit Germans, and not coordinating with Stalin simply ment that any Polish people that claimed authority was hostile to every entity in their immediate area.

@Infernal969 2 года назад

The WW1 exhibit should be particularly interesting, since at the time Poles would fight basically everywhere on behalf of other nations, since the country did not exist at the time, regaining independence in 1918. When the soldiers came back to the newly re-formed Poland, they often brought in their equipment with them as well, hence the Polish armory was a total mess during the inter-war period.

@@iatsd In my youth in the times of communism in Poland, there were jokes about: a Pole, a Russian and a German. Where ever the Russian was an idiot. There was also a lot about the communist Militia. I think that the genesis of jokes about Poles in the USA is Jewish emigration from Poland. In Poland, many of them did not have a comfortable life. During the partitions, many Jews collaborated with the occupiers, and the same was true with the Jews in the communist security services and the judiciary. Stanoli 70% of the communist security apparatus. They were brutal towards the opposition and the anti-communist movement in the 1940s and 1950s in Poland. I think these jokes are a way of reacting by Jewish emigration from Poland to the USA. A form of resentment. The same happened with Poles who joked about Jews in a not very sophisticated way.

Fun fact: at 4:06 the uniform on the left belonged to an NCO of the 'Mustafa Achmatowicz' Tatar Cavalry Regiment (Pułk Jazdy Tatarskiej im. Mustafy Achmatowicza) - a unit existing in the years 1919-1920, recruited from the members of the unique Polish-Lithuanian-Belarusian Muslim Lipka Tarar community. It was later reduced to a squadron in the 13th Wilno Uhlan Regiment.

If you want to see Polish cultural heritage, you have to go to Swedish museums. It's funny that a nation that talks so much about historical justice, about exploiting others and stealing from cultures, has itself robbed Poland and the Czech Republic of their heritage and, despite a legal commitment to return the goods, has never realized it.

Hope We will work well togheter and remember that besides We didn't always have been strong in numbers itself, Poland will have it's borders, even if it means they're on the last map humanity ever draws. Because We don't beg for freedom, We fight for it.

Ian! 2:31 - on your right, there is a case with wall muskets. One of these has barrel about 2 meters long! How could you miss it? 5:25 - there was MORS SMG there. I saw it, when I was in this museum on 3rd August. I wonder why it isn't there.

@arturrutkowski2100 2 года назад

Right next to this museum there is National Museum. At the moment an exhibit of one of the best polish painters is available to see there. The guy is Witkacy, he painted some truely psychodelic stuff. It takes around two hours to see everything, but one can always skip some. If I am not mistaken there is a Chagall's work exhibition available to see also.

If you ever want to film a similar tour without blurring or giving your audience headaches, I suggest walking slowly and transitioning very slowly through the museum without audio, and adding your usual thoughtful narration later. Visually this video is on a par with something taken by a drunken dad at a family picnic, which is a shame because it is amateurish and mostly avoidable with a little practice.

The captured soviet flags were not "given" after the war. They were stolen when russians attacked Poland together with the germans in 1939.

The poles have a lot to be proud of. Like a lot of countries in the interwar period, the armed forces were betrayed by the politicians. I have a lot of respect for any fighting force that will do whatever it takes, even if that means trying to charge armor on horseback. The Polish fighting man wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty, that's for sure.

Awesome vid today, Ian you've outdone yourself. Winged Hussars made my morning. For those who don't know, King Sobieski's Polish Army saved Europe, stopping Ottoman Turk Suleiman, at it's darkest hour. Of course, no good deed goes unpunished, hence WW1 & WW2 Poland.

@Tacticaviator7 2 года назад

Well one could argue that WW1 was a profit for Poland since it got back it's independance from the results of it ending. Even if there were Poles serving in opposing countries possibly killing eachother during it.

@carlll6101 2 года назад

@@Tacticaviator7 definitely killing each other, this is the reason why WWI is called "forgotten war" by some historians. The land still bears more scars from WWI and Polish-Soviet war than WWII in some places, just like in France (like in France WWII left more parament mark in others, often hidden in plain sight). (In Podlasie region you can still find trench lines and artillery dugouts that correlates to period maps, if they are available. IDK about other parts)

@@Tacticaviator7 It was a profit since the occupying countries went to war with each other and out of this chaos Poland could regain its independence. But a lot of people, Poles included, often overlook the fact that during WW1 some 3 million Poles fought for the occupying armies with about half a million soldiers dying and thousands of civilians too, including much land destroyed due to warfare. Then the Polish Soviet war, and a repeat some 20 years later. But what won't kill you will strengthen you as the Polish proverb goes 🙂
