a nice soul searching session

I agree that the Polish contribution to the Iraqi Freedom might seem
pathetic to many people. But we have send our finest (GROM is the finest of
the Polish military units). We have no resources to send 10 thousand troops
neither now nor we will have itin 10 or 20 years. Polish troops went for the
Iraqi Freedom OP as we wanted to show that we care. In reality US/UK would
have done the same, that is superb, without Poles. Everybody knows that. But
in other times, maybe less fortunate for Poland then right now, we might
need help from countries that don't really need to help. We hope they will
help for seemingly idiotic reasons, the same as Poland did in Iraq. Freedom
is not granted and you need to fight for it.
take care

What is GROM anyways

I know that its english translation is storm , but what exactly is the
unit. Is it a desant unit modeled after old soviet formations , or is it
more like an american ranger unit.

Also what your guys did was outstanding , plus your government for
sending them , it says more to send troops to a combat theater , than
all the words in the UN.
