Kościuszkowców Memorial, Military monument in Praga district, Warsaw, Poland

The bronze monument reaches 16 meters in height and depicts a soldier with a PPSh-41 rifle, wearing a cape near Port Praski.

The memorial honors the Polish 1st Infantry Division soldiers who attempted to support Warsaw during the 1944 uprising against German occupation.

The monument represents Polish military resistance and determination through its reaching gesture toward the western bank of the Vistula River.

The memorial stands at the intersection of Wybrzeże Helskie and Okrzei Streets, offering views of the river and surrounding urban landscape.

Local residents refer to the soldier's extended arm gesture as 'five beers please' due to its particular position toward the city center.
