Poland have WOT - Territorial Defence Force (although the polish acronym read in english is surprisingly accurate) - formation that was intended to be PiS private army, but as every single military endeavour of any Polish government after 1989 it failed its purpose and is currently made of 15 light infantry brigades with no heavier support. Considering how they are getting shat on by the professional soldiers, they are basically bodies with guns. Or, as Witcher book and game would put it:
Some more hits from wiki about them:
So yeah, just a bodies with guns
Current state of Polish military is summarised here as: being afraid of Donbas militia.
Reminder that Home Army en masse did next to nothing during entire war, their biggest action was needless and disastrous Warsaw uprising. So actually pretty fitting.

That's both hilarious and sad. On the other hand, it's still bodies with guns aimed at the revolution
