Summary/Abstract: After the action of disclosing the structures of the Polish independence underground in the spring of 1947, those who remained underground did not pose any serious threat to the communist authorities. They decided to continue the fi ght, because they did not believe in communists, they did not accept the Sovietization of Poland and they hoped for a quick outbreak of the Third World War. The structures of the underground military organizations were broken up by the turn of 1949/1950. By the end of 1953, the last local groups and armed units had been liquidated. Only a few armed groups of a “survival” nature remained.
