Abstract

The subsystem for the protection of the eastern border of the Polish People’s Republic (PRL) (with the USSR) was one of the four subsystems for the protection of the Polish state border, which in the years from the end of World War II to the dissolution of the Border Protection Forces (WOP – 15 May 1991) ensured the protection of this section. The first part of the article discusses such issues as: tasks performed by the WOP, organization and changes in the border protection system of the Polish People’s Republic in the years 1945–1991, forces and resources of the WOP participating in the protection of the border of the Polish People’s Republic until the mid-1980s and the division of the border as well as crimes committed on the border and on the border of the Polish People’s Republic and the USSR.
