Wojna w buszu. Rodezyjskie siły bezpieczeństwa w starciu z terroryzmem komunistycznym (1965–1980)
War in the Bush. Rhodesian Security Forces in a Clash with Communist Terror (1965–1980)

Summary/Abstract: The war in Rhodesia in 1965–1980 is little known in Europe. The Rhodesian government’s struggle with the partisan movement inspired and financed by communist states are known mostly from the historical literature of English-speaking countries. On the threshold of the conflict, the security forces of Rhodesia were organised conventionally, according to the standards used in British colonial armies. The duration of the war caused an evolution of all the troops forming Rhodesia’s security forces and the development of very effective methods of action against partisans and terrorists, carried out by highly-specialised military, police and special forces troops. The descendants of Poles who emigrated there after the Second World War also fought in that conflict among Rhodesian police officers and soldiers.
