Additional info and I quote the e-mail I received:

Unfortunately for me Poland is not around the corner anymore

Wow, thanks for the info, I'd like to go but having already chosen NTM and 100TUAF I really have to avoid other trips.

From Deblin to Poznan.... happy times!
Still, very kind of the Polish Gvt that they still allow press and (mostly) 'press' on their facilities.

May 25th 2011 - Land Forces Training Center Poznan

I think the number of 'journalists' visiting this facility will be ... 0 !

That would be a pitty, Polish land forces fly with Hinds, Mi-8, Mi-2's and more....
I don't know if you will see them here on this day of course, but I know they are seen here just in general...

This is really good that polish government give chance to visit this special places to normal people and media also. This kind of thing will increse the trust about the government.
