  • 24th Uhlan Regiment of Crown Hetman Stanislaw Zolkiewski (Polish: 24 Pulk Ulanów im. Hetmana Wielkiego Koronnego Stanislawa Zolkiewskiego, 24 p.ul.) was a cavalry unit of the Polish Army in the Second Polish Republic. Formed in June 1920, it fought both in the Polish–Soviet War and the 1939 Invasion of Poland. The regiment was garrisoned in the town of Kraśnik, and belonged to the elite 10th Motorized Cavalry Brigade. The history of the regiment dates back to June 1920, when it was formed in Lwów and Stanisławów. The unit was based on the 214th Volunteer Army Uhlan Regiment, and soon after forming, it was sent to fight against the Red Army in the area of Zamość, Volhynia and then Central Lithuania. During the interbellum period the regiment was garrisoned in Kraśnik. As part of the 10th Motorized Cavalry Brigade, in late autumn of 1938 it entered the areas that had belonged to Czechoslovakia (see Zaolzie, Independent Operational Group Silesia). On November 27, 1938, the regiment clashed with Czechoslovak forces near the town of Ždiar, Slovakia. During the Invasion of Poland, the regiment fought in the Battle of Jordanów, the , and several other locations, including Łańcut, Rzeszów and Radymno. On September 19, 1939, it crossed the Hungarian border, escaping German or Soviet captivity. In recognition of the bravery of its soldiers, the unit was awarded the Virtuti Militari. In 1940, the Kraśnik Uhlans were re-created in France, and then in England. In 1943, the regiment became an armoured unit, fighting in Western Europe as part of the 10th Armoured Cavalry Brigade.
