Chrobry II Battalion
The Chrobry II Battalion was a unit, formally subordinate to the Polish Home Army (AK), which took part in the Warsaw Uprising. It was named after the Polish king Bolesław I Chrobry ("Chrobry" is old Polish for "valiant"〔).
==Formation and name==
It was formed as a battalion on August 1, 1944, the day the Warsaw Uprising broke out. It was later expanded to a Battalion group. Its first commander was Major Leon Nowakowski (''Lig'').〔(The Warsaw Uprising Museum, "Major Leon Nowakowski" )〕 Later the Battalion group was led by Major Zygmunt Brejnak.〔The Warsaw Uprising Museum, "archiwum historii mówionej: MIECZYSŁAW OPĘCHOWSKI „Błyskawica”" (Archive of Oral History: Mieczyslaw Opechowski "Blyskawica", ()〕 Since it was organised without direct oversight from the Home Army High Command it soon turned out that there already was another battalion of the same name operating in the same area of Warsaw, under the command of Major Gustaw Billewicz (''Sosna'' - Pine).〔(The Warsaw Uprising Museum, "Maj. Gustaw Billewicz" )〕 As a result, the unit was redesignated with the Roman numeral "II"〔(The Warsaw Uprising Museum ), "Zgrupowania Powstańcze: Zgrupowanie „Chrobry II”", accessed 5/19/2012〕 and came under the command of the 1st Region's Śródmieście (City centre) officer, Edward Pfeiffer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Rejony i odcinki obrony oraz zgrupowania w czasie powstania )〕
Because of the chance nature of the unit's formation, it contained fighters of various underground formations and ideological backgrounds, including those from the Home Army and from the nationalist National Armed Forces (NSZ).〔Marek Jan Chodakiewicz, "The Warsaw Uprising 1944: Perception and Reality", ()〕
The battalion fought in the city centre and on the 3rd of August its "Warszawianka" company, led by Lieutenant Zbigniew Brym carried out a successful assault on the Railway Post Office, located at the junction of Żelazna St. and Aleje Jerozolimskie.〔(The Warsaw Uprising Museum, "August 3, 1944" )〕 On the 8th of August it captured the building of the Ministry of Water and Sewerage in Starynkiewicz Sq.,〔(The Warsaw Uprising Museum, "August 8, 1944" )〕 which it lost four days later having to retreat after a counter attack by the Russian-backed Kaminski Brigade.〔(The Warsaw Uprising Museum, "August 12, 1944" )〕
