22nd Carpathian Uhlan Regiment

The regiment was garrisoned in the town of Brody (current Ukraine), and belonged to Kresowa Cavalry Brigade.

The history of the unit dates back to the late summer of 1920, when in the village of Nowosielce-Gniewosz near Lwow, the 209th Volunteer Uhlan Regiment was formed by Rotmistrz Henryk Towarnicki.

Concentrated in the area of Zgierz and Strykow in central Poland, it was forced to withdraw behind the Vistula river, and in mid-September 1939 fought near Lublin, moving gradually towards the south.

The ceremony was attended by General Lucjan Zeligowski, and the flag featured among others the Polish Eagle, and the coats of arms of the cities of Lwow and Lublin.

The badge, approved in 1925 by Minister of Military Affairs Wladyslaw Sikorski, was in the shape of the cross, with a red shield and white eagle in the middle.
