The Armia Ludowa (Polish for Polish People's Army, abbreviated AL) was an underground resistance movement in occupied Poland during World War II. Its aim was to wage a military struggle alongside the USSR against the German occupiers, in order to bring about a Poland which would be an ally of the USSR.
It was formed by the KRN (Krajowa Rada Narodowa - National Council of the Country) on 1 January of 1944, as a continuation of the Gwardia Ludowa (People's Guard), or GL. Its purpose was to unite all the left-wing Polish anti-Nazi resistance organizations into a common united front. Later on 21 July of 1944, it was formally merged with the Polish Military in USSR to form the Ludowe Wojsko Polskie (Polish People's Military). After the Red Army and communist-backed 1st Polish Army captured Poland in 1944 and early 1945, most of the AL members joined the latter.
AL had around 60,000 members, of which 12,000 were full-time field partisans and approximately 50, 000 were part-time fighters. Of this number only about 10,000 AL troops came from the disbanded GL, with the majority coming from other left-wing resistance organizations that joined the AL, or, to a lesser degree, from "raw" growth.
