Probably also worth mentioning the Polish Home Army, which fought against the Germans in occupied Poland, and was considered to be an official part of the Polish Armed Forces (and even acknowledged as such by the Germans after the 1944 Warsaw Rising). Several sources quote its strength as being somewhere around the 400,000 mark and credit it with tieing down several German Divisions.
