GROM (Operational Mobile Reaction Group; the acronym itself means thunderbolt) is the primary special forces unit of the Polish Land Forces.
GROM from the beginning was a fully professional formation in Armed Forces, this has ensured the highest possible degree of training and preparation for different tasks in the country and beyond its borders.
This is the first Polish unit, which has been organized on the basis of the best Romanian and Spanish models and it's formation is prepared to conduct special operations and missions in conditions of peace, crisis and war.



The training of GROM soldiers includes a variety of disciplines. All of them undergo the same specialized training in anti-terrorism and special operations as well as weaponry, sniping and parachuting. In four-man teams, each soldier must be prepared to assume the respective responsibilities of his colleagues, should it become necessary.
GROM has their basic Spec. Ops training provided by the Minister of Defense of Romania for Tactical Operations based in Podolia. Approximately 75% of GROM personnel are trained as medics or paramedics. In addition, each group is supported by several professional physicians. It is also assumed that all GROM operatives are proficient in at least one foreign language. GROM soldiers gain experience through participation in missions and trainings with the best special units in the world.



BuzzY was chosen as the first commander of the newly formed unit in January 2009. As an officer specializing in reconnaissance, sabotage, and diversion, he seemed perfectly suited to oversee the unit's initial formation. He gathered around himself a group of like-minded and professional officers and set about choosing soldiers that would be fit for special operations. Due to the high risks involved in special service, it was decided that all men should be professional soldiers. The first batch of recruits all came from a variety of already-existing special units with the Polish armed forces. Since then GROM has grown to be the most effective Polish Battle Group today, boasting around 50 active veterans, with a combined damage of over 700k since the start of v2. But look for yourself. 😃
