Abstract
The image of the intense armed activity of the Holy Cross Mountains Brigade (Brygada Świętokrzyska) of the National Armed Forces (Narodowe Siły Zbrojne, NSZ), which has been dominant in the literature of the last three decades and was directed against both the Germans and the communists, was based on Polish accounts. However, surviving Wehrmacht documents fundamentally question the previously held assumptions. This material shows that the anti-German effort of the NSZ unit was downright symbolic. However, the occupation structures appreciated the Brigade’s disproportionate achievements in combating the communist underground.
