description The aim of this article is to provide basic information about Host Nation Support (HNS) and Polish Armed Forces experiences. At the beginning the place of Host Nation Support in Multinational Logistics is described, than there were given the most important definitions within HNS and some background information. Nowadays, joint exercises are becoming more and more significant within NATO activities. It is why our Armed Forces take part in many different exercises organized abroad or within our country.This article gives also some information about Host Nation Support Planning System, which is divided into five steps. The Polish system of HNS is described as well as its importance of military and civilian parts.HNS seeks to provide the NATO Commander and the Sending Nation (SN) with support in the form of materiel, facilities and services, including area security and administrative support in accordance with negotiated arrangements between the SN and/or NATO and the Host Nation (HN) government. As such, HNS facilitates the introduction of forces into an Area of Operations (AOO) by providing essential Reception, Staging and Onward Movement (RSOM) support [1].At the end, there was given an example of exercises organized in Poland — “Strong Resolve 2002” and “Steadfast Jazz 2013”, which were one of the biggest undertakings where Poland was involved.[b]Keywords[/b]: military logistics, Host Nation Support (HNS), NATO Logistics, Strong Resolve, Steadfast Jazz, Multinational Exercises
