Well, Comunism had also it's good sides
 - NICE SHOWS - music is of course original, video is original and this parade took place in 1966 in Warsaw:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrYwuvmCyK0&feature=email - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrYwuvmC ... ture=email We can see some of Polish formations from different centuries (from 1:02 formations of late XVIth / XVIIth - XVIIIth centuries start). From 1:02 as follows: Polish Pikemen called "Tenth-men" - maximum 10% of Polish Infantry, Polish Musketers (Hungarian-Polish type Infantry), Heavy Winged Hussaria with spare lances, Scythemen peasant Infantry (late XVIIIth century), Infantry of the Duchy of Warsaw (or late XVIIIth century Infantry - i'm not shure), in 1:55 - National Cavalry (probably) - light cavalry of late XVIIIth century; 2:01 - "Szwoleżerowie" (Napoleonic wars, Battle of Somosierra).
