I love to do Poland Reactions and Reaction to Poland videos. I especially love to react to Polish culture, Polish history and Polish Comedy. I started with a few Poland Culture reaction videos, then did some Poland History Reaction videos and I am doing now also Poland Comedy Reaction videos.I was impressed by the Polish Army in comparison to the German Army. And maybe want to do a Polish Rap Reaction in the future. I love to react to poland and do polish music reaction videos. I already did an unconquered reaction.

#poland #reaction - Zábava
The sign "PW" Means "Polska Walcząca" or "Fightning Poland". According to wikipedia: "Polska Walcząca (PW) - a symbol in the shape of an anchor, where the letter P symbolizes Poland, and the arms represent the letter W - struggle or the "anchor" - a symbol of hope for the recovery of independence of Poland occupied by Nazi Germany. Widely used during World War II."
Yes, it is symbol of anorher polish specjal unit JWK, but author of film about GROM used photos of both these units
And the famous symbol of "Fighting Poland", so letter "PW" combined into an anchor, was designed by Anna Smoleńska - she was a member of the Grey Ranks, arrested by Gestapo, imprisoned in Pawiak prison and later murdered in Auschwitz at the age of 23. Also her father and other members of her family were arrested by Gestapo and murdered.
@@marekzajac2107 Not necessarily, JWK uses a stylized Kotwica (with a dagger) as a badge, and the one in the photo is normal, so it may be an ordinary patch, not identification sign. In addition, when I checked google graphics (i know, professional research), I saw patch with normal Anchor on GROM operators, but not JWK. If I wrong, please, corect me.
@@ukaszjanowski2183 jeżeli wpiszesz sobie logo JWK to jest to wlasnie symbol polski walczącej z wkomponowanym nożem (przynajmniej ja zawsze tak na to patrzyłem może to i faktycznie nie było tworzone z tą myślą 😅) Pozdro
@@marekzajac2107 Właśnie to miałem na myśli. ;)
JW stands for "Jednostka Wojskowa", which in translation means Military Unit. GROM is also an abbreviation and means "Grupa Reagowania Operacyjno-Manewrowego", and the translated version is the Operational-Maneuver Reaction Group, but "grom" is also a word in Polish meaning thunder.
Fun fact. Unit is also dedicated/spiritual successor to Silent Unseen Paratrooper of Poland.
The OG Special Unit what was training first Green Beret and SAS operatives during WW2.
The PW sign means "Fighting Poland"
Polska Walcząca - PW
Fan fact: Delta Force consider Grom as one of the very top of special force around world :)
Thats cool :)
Some Delta operators admit that GROM is the best, not one of 😁
Navy seals and delta in Afghanistan and Iraq when they had a choice with who go on work they all the time choose Grom operators
@@chris.poland look ajthepolishamerican
You could check the story where the pre NATO Polish agents went on a rescue mission to save 6 cia agents in iraq. Operation Simoom (Polish: Operacja Samum) 1990. Cool story. The USA asked Poland for help becous there alies would not help staiting that its an immposible mission
Muszę sprawdzić, pozdrawiam serdecznie 🤗
GROM operators gained the nickname of "The Surgeons" due to their extensive medical training and knowledge and their surgical ability to coordinate and execute special operations.
Each country Paulina has well trained and advanced special forces. Not only Poland. The difference is how many of soldiers they have got.
@@DaivaDarpana And- where did I say otherwise???
The sign is a combination of the signs P and W, which means Fighting Poland, the sign was a symbol of the fight against the German occupiers during World War 2
10:41 Tier 1 is the highest level of special forces units. GROM was in the PS3 game "Medal of Honor Tier 1 edition"👍
PW as a tied monogram (looking like an anchor) - a symbol of "Fighting Poland" during the German occupation. Painting this symbol on walls was punishable by death. Two original "PW" signs painted on the walls during the German occupation have survived to this day - they are located on the building of the Supreme Audit Office in Warsaw.
anchor P this is "Polska Walcząca" sign
the symbol of the Polish underground state in WWII
1:50 No, the symbol of JW GROM is an Eagle with a lightning (grom means thunderbolt in polish). The symbol you are asking is Polska Walcząca (Fighting Poland), also called Kotwica (Anchor), created during world war II by polish underground state and using to this day as a symbol of patriotism and readiness to fight for freedom. Trivia: Anchor is symbol other polish special forces, Jednostka Wojskowa Komandosów (Commandos Military Unit ).
A designer of this symbol of "Fighting Poland", so of letters "PW" combined into an anchor, was Anna Smoleńska - she was a member of the Grey Ranks and of little sabotage, she was arrested by Gestapo, imprisoned in Pawiak prison and then murdered in Auschwitz at the age of 23. Also her father, and other members of her family, were arrested by Gestapo and murdered.
No, grom does not mean lightning in polish. Lightning in polish is 'błyskawica', 'grom' means thunder.
@@JanKowalski-bm9rv You're right, my bad
@@JanKowalski-bm9rv "Grom" means thunder, and those troops were so quick, that it just fit to the name of light! Po prostu powiedzmy, że jesteśmy zajebiści, tak? A Panowie, którzy walczą, są najlepsi na świecie. Koniec!
@@Lipek47 Nie są najlepsi. Najlepsze jednostki na świecie to te o których nie wiemy że nawet istnieją.
JW GROM is most famous in PL but we have also JW Agat, Nil and Formoza. I saw once at S19/S17 speedway SPEC OPS convoy with hammers and mraps. I think it was JW Agat. That was so impressive!!!!
6:08 JW is Jednostka Wojskowa(eng. military unit)
1:47 that's one of the most popular symbols of polish resistance movement during and after ww2. It means PW, Polska Walcząca (eng. Fighting Poland). It was adopted as a symbol of GROM, they wear it on their uniforms. 1:56 and that's the logo of the unit
Jw means Jednostka Wojskowa ( Military Unit). Evety unit has also its own number code in the name. We have overall 5 SOF units - JW Komandosów, JW Grom, JW Formoza, Agat and Nil. Each one specialize in different kind of warfare for example Formoza do mostly marine ops and JWK recon and sabotage behind enemy lines. Overall Polish SOFs counts around 3-4k soldiers which is like a brigade.
The Anchor, PW, Polska Walcząca, was a sign created by a young Polish resistance movement volonteer in WW2. It means "Figting Poland". Now it's one of our most important signs. Used everywhere when the "fight" for something is needed but used mostly by military. Very popular. Very patriotic.
This symbol you were asking about was used by Polish Underground Army - Armia Krajowa during ww2. It contains letters P and W which stands for Polska Walcząca (Fighting Poland).JW stands for Jednostka Wojskowa which means Military Unit
They are very well known in the military and Irak veterans circles. Adored by Navy Seals and SAS. Great specialists, my childhood dream to become one of them.
JW stands for Jednostka Wojskowa - Military Unit. Normaly all those formations use JWK - Jednostka Wojskowa Komandosów - Commando Army Unit.
And BTW Grom means Thunder. At the same time Grupa Reagowania Operacyjno Militarnego - Military-Operational Reaction Group.
...And Yeah xDDDDDD HECKLER & COCK? HECKLER & COKE ?
Jesteśmy patriotami i trzymamy się razem Grom zwalczy wszystko
Some fun facts: yes 4 men teams, each GROM operative has to speak multiple languages, each member has to be medically trained or have medical knowledge so that they can treat themselves. They know how to operate and fix every weapon ever made! They were trained by US Delta Force and the Bristish special forces SAS. Look into their famous battle in Afghanistan where 4 GROM soldiers were attacked. They defeated and took out over 100 Taliban soldiers in a 6 hour long fire fight pinned down. Also they never lost a GROM soldier to date! Super badasses!
I love for this Call of duty that they introduced a Polish operator Jw Grom Gromsko and Sweager 😅❤️
JW GROM - Jednostka wojskowa GROM
3:00 yeah, I think it's normal for special units, at least these better ones to hide the identity of their operators. These people are quite important and could be targeted by different groups when they're off-duty
JW, which means military unit in Polish Jednostka Wojskowa. There were about 3,100 soldiers in all special forces in 2021, but it is difficult to estimate how many of them were in the JW GROM unit, maybe 500 or maybe 700 soldiers. Nowhere is it stated exactly how many soldiers there are in individual units, but there are 5 of them. The most important are JW GROM and JWK (K like Commandos) and the remaining 3 are auxiliary and the sixth is a supporting air unit. After 2022, there is no data on how many soldiers we have in special forces. Due to the war in the East, these data were kept secret. We are increasing the armies, so the specialists are also larger, but I think that ultimately there will be no more than 4,000-4,500 soldiers because they are expensive units to maintain and only used in exceptional situations, so there is no need to have more.
"Grom" means "Thunder" in english.
2:36 They are very popular among older and younger people.GROM💪💪💪
Zielony walka w lesie,niebieski na morzu a czarny to walka w terenie zabudowanym.Trzy odrębne taktyki walki
Interesting video.
10:40 it's just a way of saying it's among the best units in the world. I don't think there is something like a special forces tierlist, it would be very hard to make due to the specifics of this type of unit
Hey Chris. You CRUSHED IT today!!! 😅
😂
U can check another special forces in Poland for example: FORMOZA (its similar to SEAL), AGAT, EDS (air special forces), JWK (recognition and support), Nil (tech and logistics). But yes, Grom and Formoza are our jewels in da crown
Many of scenes in video shows other Polish sof units "JWK", 'AGAT"
1:06- AGAt
3:30-4:37 is All JWK
5:04- JWK
6:42- JWK
They look cool but it's a tough service. In the last 6 months 2 Special Unit operators have been killed during training. This shows that they don't joke around during training.
5:24 They don't disclose such information
The PW symbol originally stood for "pomścimy Wawer" -we will avenge Wawer, referring to a 1939 massacre of Polish civilians by Ordnungpolizei. It became a Polish resistance and later a Polish military symbol.
Also about sign and GROM. GROM is continuing tradition of paratroopers from Nazi occupied Poland times where that time so called "Cichociemni" ("Silent Unseen" very small Polish special forces of those times) trained in Britain were dropped to Poland to gather intelligence and support Polish underground fighting Nazi Germany. Anchored "P" was explained here by other people. It also means that Poland will fight even if it is occupied and it does not officially exist. It is tradition for the nation and culture to fight for it.
Regards to you Chris ❤
Fun fact is that part of GROM training is standing beside the targets, and your team is shooting live rounds at targets that are on your left and right
You can play as Grom Unit in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare ;)
this sign is P superimposed on W, it means Fighting Poland ( Polska Walczaca from WW2 time )
We would never knew about GROM. It was a coincedence that a one reporter spotted soldiers with this tags and asked a question during a press conference about it to politicians responsible for army at that time
How good they are? They train with American Delta, US Navy SEAL's and British SAS. It is tier one unit meaning it goes everywhere where SAS, Delta or Navy SEL'As go and they can operate together. In fact, at start of Iraq war US Navy SEAL's took one oil terminal while Polish GROM took the other and it did it faster than US Navy SEAL's (I have a friend who was there in GROM). They also arrested Serbian mass murderer Slavek Dokmanovic aka "Butcher of Vukovar" in 15 minutes and his mercenaries did not know what hit them until their hands were zip tied and they got bags over their heads then in 2 hours Dokmanovic was transported from Serbia to Hague criminal court. Why do you think Putin will not travel to the rest of Europe? They protected US ambassador in Haiti at the beginning of their career (yes Polish GROM). If you know movie "American Sniper" so, I suggest read more comprehensive book from author Chris Kyle from US Navy SEAL's (autobiography from the war under the same title). There is sub-chapter where Chris says when he was freshly deployed to Iraq without his Navy SEAL unit he was on Polish GROM unit as sniper under Polish command. This is how close those unit operate. You can even read in that book (as well as another GROM operator book) how he was green and while patrolling with GROM he opened fire on car that was carrying two CIA operatives trying to make contact (big no-no when approaching special forces convoy). Polish operators tried to hide him to save his butt, but he admitted and he was put on ice for two weeks for this misdemeanor. Polish GROM trains everywhere including in Belize tropical rain forests to learn how to survive in jungle. They also have very harsh selection and no you cannot be individualist - you have to be good at teamwork, but you have to survive as individual with little to no help. The best individualists are eliminated just like weakest individuals. They use real ammo and flash bangs during training and their first commander and co-founder general Slawomir Petelicki was playing hostage for demonstration while they were shooting next to him - level of professional confidence.
GROM TO BEST OF THE BEST
I know the paintball is not the same, but try it in full uniform and with a military weapon, I recommend it
JW-military unit GROM you wouldn't want them to visit you
You have to watch "Kamienie na szaniec" that film shows how life was like in Poland during Nazi's occupation and what Germans were doing to Polish people.
Cześć and welcome. !!😊
Strasznie mnie rozbawiło jak ten bądź co bądź Niemiec zapytał o znak Polski Walczącej 😂
Siły specjalne FORMOZA 🇵🇱💪❤️
I also once heard that the symbol was for “Warszawskiego Powstania” (The Warsaw Uprising) 🤔
Grom is realy very good. But it's small unit.
Tier one probably meaning first class.
JW means "jednostka wojskowa". It is word to word direct translation of "military unit"
Cześć!!!!!
Chris, I suggest you watch a film based on facts "Karbala" - a Polish war drama from 2015, directed by Krzysztof Łukaszewicz, presenting real events of the defense of the town hall in Karbala by Polish and Bulgarian stabilization forces during the Shiite rebellion in Iraq in 2004. The Polish-Bulgarian formation has been fighting for four days against the numerically superior attackers.
Na Haiti Napoleon Bonaparte wysłał Polaków,poszukaj jak to się skończyło
W Polsce mamy 4 takie JW. GROM , FORMOZA, AGAT, NIL ..GROM jest tą najsłynniejszą
Hi Chris, if you would like a story of polish military with the extra dose of POLISH (in capitals, yes ;) see the story of ORP Piorun - Lazerpig channel has a great video of that (and it's legitimate channel, despite the name ;P)
Last thing i will add - It's about hunting Bismarck ;)
T1 = Elite of the Elite. The JW = means Jednostka Wojskowa/Military Unit and the symbol you were asking is the symbol from world war 2, means Polska Walcząca/Fighting Poland
You should watch Generał Italia, it's a great Polish cartoon about war
Sehr schönes Material, nicht alle im Film verwendeten Materialien stammen von JW GROM.
I didn't even know that grom still exists
Lol
Its a myth... Where is my random comment???
@@chris.poland That would be 11 right?
Random Comment nr. 11
Chris obejrzyj kim byli lisowczycy 👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
What you see is a peak of the mountain. They are much more advanced according to video.
Ahh yes Heckler & Coke 🤣🤣🤣
I understand the pain of hearing “heckler & koch” said incorrectly. Btw-“Grom” is also mispronounced in the video. The “ah” in Grom is incorrect. It actually sounds like “ohm” which you pronounce correctly. 👍🏻
When we joined NATO we decided to have special forces as specialization.
JW - Jednostka Wojskowa - Military Unit
Tier One is like US soldiers say "best of the best".
JW - (PL Jednostka Wojskowa)
To tylko się wydaje takie fajne i proste. Większość jednak ludzi jak nie wszyscy nawet z takich jednostek jak ,"Grom". później przeżywa to że zabili człowieka. To kiedyś prędzej czy później dopada każdego. Zabójstwo to zabójstwo.
Maybe next do some reactuon for German KSK.🫡
Yo Chris what would be your reaction if Germany split again?
Chrys. In Deutschland gibt es solche Geheimdienste nicht ?
KSK
JW=Jednostka Wojskowa=Military Unit so JW GROM = Jednostka Wojskowa - Grupa Reagowania Operacyjno Manewrowego = Military Unit - Operational and Maneuver Response Group
O Niemcach nie słychać 😅😅
Look at FORMOZA
⚽
'Bout PW (the anchor sign) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kotwica
2:30 Ask the random Polish guy/gal about the first SOU comes into their mind, they'll answer: GROM.
6:06 JW = Jednostka Wojskowa = Military Unit.
T1 is the best unit on world
Całe Niemcy reagują czy tylko jeden Niemiec? 😂
Cala Polska jest tak durna czy tylko Ty.
P i a symbol old symbol of fighting poland
oh cool, 7 minutes ago, i got lucky.
❤️
🤘🇵🇱✌️🤙👌😁😎🏴☠️🫡🇵🇱🤘
Itu sie mylisz niemcy nie sa najlepsi poszukaj listy z jednostami specjalnymi swiata pozdrawiam z Norymbergi
Jeez does that video butcher the pronounciation. He's rolling the "o" in "Grom" into an "ou", where it should stop at the "o sound itself" - much like Arnold pronounced "Crom" in the Conan movies once upon a time. Also, the "JW" is not part of the unit's name proper - it's an acronym for "Jednostka Wojskowa" - "Military Unit". It's perfectly fine to refer to them as "GROM" or "GROM Unit", if one uses the Polish "JW" acronym they should read it with the Polish pronounciation ("Yotvu").
These days GROM is well known but does not get much media attention for obvious reasons.
7:49: You feel my pain XD
Polska Walcząca ( Poland Fighting) symbol. This symbol was also used during WW ll in uprizing against German natzi.
German commandos are not in the 10th
Jak tam z waszymi siłami SS
please make videos without invoking God in vain
