22nd Carpathian Uhlan Regiment (Polish: 22 Pulk Ulanow Podkarpackich, 22 p.ul.) was a cavalry unit of the Polish Army in the Second Polish Republic. Formed in November 1920, it fought in the 1939 Invasion of Poland. The regiment was garrisoned in the town of Brody (current Ukraine), and belonged to Kresowa Cavalry Brigade. The history of the unit dates back to the late summer of 1920, when in the village of Nowosielce-Gniewosz near Lwow, the ''209th Volunteer Uhlan Regiment'' was formed by Rotmistrz Henryk Towarnicki. On October 7, 1920, the unit was garrisoned in the barracks located in Bakonczyce, a district of Przemysl, and on November 8–14, 1920, it was merged with the ''209th Carpathian Uhlan Regiment'', taking on the new name, the ''22nd Carpathian Uhlan Regiment''. In October 1921, regimental headquarters were moved to Hrubieszow, to be moved to Radymno after three years. Finally, in June 1924, the regiment settled in Brody, where it remained until 1939. During the 1939 Invasion of Poland, the ''22nd Carpathian Uhlan Regiment'' belonged to Kresowa Cavalry Brigade. Concentrated in the area of Zgierz and Strykow in central Poland, it was forced to withdraw behind the Vistula river, and in mid-September 1939 fought near Lublin, moving gradually towards the south. It capitulated in late September 1939 near Bilgoraj. == Commandants == * Major Romuald Niemojewski (1920 - 1921) * Colonel Wladyslaw Fibich (1921 - 1926) * Colonel Jerzy Grobicki (XII 1926 - XII 1929), * Colonel Stanislaw Rostworowski (XII 1929 - VII 1935), * Colonel Eugeniusz Jozef Jasiewicz (4 VII 1935 - 1937), * Colonel Wladyslaw Plonka (1937 - 1939). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「22nd Carpathian Uhlan Regiment」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
