President Komorowski shared the traditional Christmas ‘host’ or wafer in Warsaw today with soldiers and told them that they were especially appreciated at this time of year in serving the nation at home and abroad.

Komorowski, accompanied by Defence Minister Tomasz Siemoniak stressed that Polish soldeirs, in Afghanistan and elsewhere are "ready to solve the toughest problems in the world," and that Poland’s armed forces are the nation’s “showcase” abroad.
