For an infantry battalion, a regiment or a brigade, what type of support weapons would be allocated? I presume that there were machine guns allocated to battalions. Were there any infantry guns at any level? Mortars? Anything else?
And are there any good sources (preferably in English!). |

If you don't see them in the Movie: Warsaw 1920, they didn't have them. |

I think the staffing table of the Polish infantry division will give you answers to all your questions: PDF link

The formal structure is actually here: PDF link You will see that the regulations had mortars, but almost no units did actually have them. Some regiments had lots of automatic rifles (Lewis, Chauchat) but most had only HMGs. |
