Jews in the Polish Army
- ... that about 200,000 Jews served in the Polish Army and related formations during World War II? Source: https://www.avotaynu.com/books/PolishOfficers.htm
- ALT1: ... that before World War II, Jews in the Polish Army formed about a fifth of the Polish military medical services? Source: https://bip.ipn.gov.pl/download/4/11804/Zalaczniknr2doSIWZMakieta.pdf (p. 104 of the pdf IIRC)

- Comment: While one could argue that some details from the body might be more interesting, they might also make the hook less neutral. But see ALT1 if you want something weirder.

- I always rub my hands when I see a nomination by Piotrus. This one, as expected, meets all the main requirements: new enough, long enough, cites sources, checks the neutrality box. ALT1 does not quite cut it, however; I do not see how people can form services. This should probably be amended in the article as well. I removed one extra "Polish" from ALT0, which I think is interesting enough. Surtsicna (talk) 23:16, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Surtsicna: Thank you :) I think served in this context is fine (people serve in the army...), but how about ALT1a below? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:53, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
