for the frontiers of the state. Among others the 4th Infantry Division came into being
in 1919. It belonged to the Łódź General District in 1919-1921. First that division
took part in the Polish-Ukrainian War, then in the Polish-Russian War. The
reorganization of the 4th Infantry Division, as well as the others, was carried out
in November 1921. After the return from the front it belonged to the VIII Corps
District in Toruń and composed of three infantry regiments instead of four like so

Army defending Poland against the Third Reich.
