General Inspector of the Armed Forces (Polish: Generalny Inspektor Sił Zbrojnych; GISZ) was an office created in the Second Polish Republic in 1926, after the May Coup.

The General Inspector reported directly to the President, and was not responsible to the Sejm (parliament) or the government.

In the event of war, the General Inspector was to become the Commander-in-chief of the Polish Armed Forces.

Afterwards, all General Inspectors were in exile (and increasingly connected with educational activities such as cooperation with the London-based Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum).

Afterwards, in place of the GISZ, a Military Council was created, led by gen. bryg.
