Hi Helen
Here some pictures from a book out of print
POLAND
Khaki was originally adopted by Poland in 1919, and in 1935 the uniform was extensively modernised so that by the outbreak of war the Polish army was universally dressed in a standard khaki uniform.
The tunic was single-breasted with stand-and-fall collar and seven white metal buttons in front. The breast and side patch pockets had a flap and button. The pointed shoulder straps were plain, and the regimental number or cypher was usually painted in yellow on a cloth side, so that it could be removed when desired; on officers' shoulder straps the number or cypher was embroidered in silver. The cuffs were plain with an opening at the back for other ranks, and one button for officers. Trousers were long and worn with short puttees and ankle boots. Officers and mounted personnel wore khaki breeches (Generals with blue Lampassen) and black boots. The great¬coat was single-breasted with fall collar, six buttons in front, turnback cuffs with tab and two buttons, and plain pointed shoulder straps.
Head-dress included the czapka which was stiff with square khaki top, band in arm or regiment colour and black leather peak and chin straps. On the front all ranks wore the Polish eagle and their badge of rank. A soft version of this cap with ear flap and metal buckle in front was worn as a field cap. The czapka was worn by all ranks in all units except Chevaux Legers and Frontier Corps, who wore a similar cap but with round top. At the beginning of the war the French helmet was in the process of being replaced by the 1935 Polish model, so that it was still being worn by cavalry and artillery.
Tank troops were dressed very much like their French counter-parts with double-breasted black leather jacket, black beret and the French motorised troop helmet, painted khaki. The arm-of-service colour worn on the collar patches shaped like lance pennants were orange and black cloth. Mountain troops wore the traditional circular khaki felt hat with brim and eagle's feather on the left side and a long khaki cloak which was worn over the left shoulder.
Rank was indicated on the front of the cap and on the shoulder straps as follows:
N.C.O.s (corporals) One to three silver-embroidered bars on the cap, and lace ones across the middle of the shoulder strap.
N.C.O.s (sergeants) One or two red-edged silver-embroidered chevrons on the cap, and red-edged silver lace chevrons and edging on the shoulder straps.
Company officers One to three five-pointed silver-embroidered stars on the shoulder straps and cap with, in
addition, one row of silver braid around the
top of the cap band.
Field officers
One to three five-pointed silver-embroidered
stars and two bars on the shoulder straps, and
one to three stars and two rows of silver
braid on the cap.
Generals
One to three five-pointed silver-embroidered
stars and zigzag embroidery across base of
shoulder strap (and on collar patches and
cuffs) and on the cap band with, in addition,
two rows of silver braid on the cap.
Marshals
As generals but with gilt crossed staffs or
bulava, surmounted by the Polish eagle.
Arm-of-service and regimental colours appeared on the cap and collar patches, as well as on the undress trousers, as follows:*

Infantry Dark blue Dark blue Yellow
Rifle battalions Dark blue Dark blue Green
