The Home Army (Polish: Armia Krajowa) was a military organization in Poland during World War II. Formed in 1942, it operated under the command of the Polish government-in-exile and aimed to resist German occupation. The Home Army was involved in various resistance activities, including sabotage, intelligence gathering, and supporting the Allied forces. One of the most notable actions of the Home Army was the Warsaw Uprising in 1944, where they attempted to liberate Warsaw from German control. Despite initial successes, the uprising was ultimately suppressed, leading to significant loss of life and destruction in the city. The Home Army remains a symbol of Polish resistance and patriotism.
