PART 2

Abstract

The Polish Armed Forces (Polish Armed Forces) have been participating in military
missions since 1953. By 2023, Polish Armed Forces soldiers had actively participated
in 92 missions around the world. These missions were of an observational, peacekeeping,
humanitarian, police, war, stabilization and training nature. A series of
three articles will present the basic principles of NATO, UN and EU military missions,
the history of selected Polish military missions, the idea of ISAF (International
Security Assistance Force), and the evolution of the Polish Military Contingent of
the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF PKW) in Afghanistan. The articles
will also include the results of scientific research by G. Piatkiewicz obtained
for his doctoral dissertation entitled. “Socio-Professional Inclusion of International
Security Assistance Force (ISAF) Soldiers in Afghanistan” presenting the characteristics
of Polish soldiers participating in the 9th quota of the PKW ISAF in
Afghanistan. The first article presented the basic principles of military missions and
the history of selected Polish military missions. This article, on the other hand, will
present the idea of the International Security Assistance Force mission and the participation
of the Polish contingent within this mission.
