 Units of the POWN fought alongside FFI in the Departments of the Côte-d'Or, Jura and Saône et Loire.When the contact was established between the Conseil National de la Résistance (CNR) and POWN the battle groups headed by Colonel Zdrojewski were attached to the movement of FFI on the basis of an agreement with Lyon on 28 May 1944 between the General Chaban-Delmas, Chief Military Provisional Government of the Republic of France and General Zdrojewski.POWN was not the only Polish group involved in the Resistance in France.
