Today, reminders of Kościuszko’s heroism prevails strongly in the minds of the Polish people. Statues in Poland still bear his image, to include U.S. Army V Corps' Forward Operating Site in Poznan. The camp was renamed Camp Kościuszko on July 30, 2022, following U.S. President Joe Biden’s announcement of a permanent U.S. military presence in Poland at the NATO Summit in Madrid in June 2022. The name honors Kościuszko’s contributions to both American and Polish independence, symbolizing the deep historical ties and ongoing military cooperation between the two nations. Polish and U.S. leaders, including Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Błaszczak and then V Corps commander Lt. Gen. John Kolasheski, emphasized that the name reflects shared values and a commitment to NATO’s eastern flank security. (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Devin Klecan)
