Narodowe Zjednoczenie Wojskowe (National Military Union, NZW) was a Polish

NZW's first commander was Colonel Tadeusz Danilewicz, then Colonel Bogusław Banasik. The organisation was organised into sixteen "areas" and was most active in the districts of Białystok, Lublin and Rzeszów. It had several armed units, called Pogotowie Walki Zbrojnej, which fought many skirmishes with both the NKVD and the Soviet Red Army. Its headquarters were destroyed in early spring of 1946, when Stalinist secret police arrested hundreds of its members. However, several units remained active until the mid-1950s.^{[citation needed]}
