Monument to the soldiers of the 1st Polish Army, Military memorial in North Praga district, Warsaw, Poland.
The bronze monument stands 16 meters tall, featuring a soldier holding a PPSh-41 weapon while wearing a flowing cape at Wybrzeże Helskie intersection.
The memorial commemorates the 1st Tadeusz Kościuszko Infantry Division soldiers who attempted to support the Warsaw Uprising during World War II.
Veterans organizations, military groups, youth associations, and local businesses contributed funds and resources for the construction of this memorial in 1985.
Located at the entrance of Port Praski, the monument provides wheelchair access and stands at the intersection of Wybrzeże Helskie and Okrzei Streets.
Local residents gave the statue a nickname referencing the soldier's extended hand gesture, which they interpret as ordering five beverages.
