Zygmunt Podhorski (nom de guerre Zaza; May 25, 1891 – September 12, 1960) was Brigadier General of the Polish Army.

In 1909, he graduated from a high school in Warsaw, and then spent his compulsory military service at 9th Uhlan Regiment at Bila Tserkva, where in 1911 was promoted to the rank of chorazy.

Since he was a junior officer of the Russian Army, to avoid arrest Podhorski left Kraków in August 1914, shortly before the outbreak of the war.

On November 11, 1918, ahead of a mounted squadron, he seized military barracks located on Koszykowa Street in Warsaw, disarming German soldiers stationed there.

In July he was promoted to major, and as commandant of 203rd Volunteer Uhlan Regiment, he fought against the invading Red Army near Ciechanów.

On September 9, 1920, Podhorski was named commandant of 1st Krechowce Uhlan Regiment, stationed in Augustów, remaining in this post until July 29, 1927.

In 1927, Podhorski was sent to a military officers school in France: upon his return, he was named commandant of Cavalry Training Center in Grudziądz (1928–1935).
