Identyfikacja osób w nazwach organizacji kombatanckich II Rzeczpospolitej

Abstrakt

The paper deals with the names of former servicemen associations, which were active in the Second Polish Republic period. The most important component of the semantic structure of each name is the element identifying the associated members. This identification is made mostly due to their participation in war activities and national independence movements, or belonging to the army or army-supporting units. Thanks to the strict connection between the analysed name structures and the time and place of the activity of these associations, they are a clear medium of historical-cultural contents.
