The authors of this article, joining the discussion on this new phenomenon which undoubtedly is massive women’s service in the Polish Armed Forces, draw a broad background of research perspective starting their considerations from civilisation changes taking place in contemporary world. Both are career soldiers, which facilitates them monitoring numerous research programmes and endeavours concerning women service and conducted by research centres and institutions in the army. This knowledge authorises them to form a statement that currently one can only draw a sketch of problem network for future interpersonal research, which as they hope, will be conducted in co-operation with civilian researchers interested in this topic. Women military service appears to be a challenge for institutions and people facing an ambitious task to reconstruct the organisation and introducing our armed forces into the 21st century.
