You only need one person in each unit with a radio that speaks Polish for this to work. They can translate for everyone else. Think of the Navaho code talkers the US used in WW2. If there isn't a polish speaker in a unit, then you would have to just use another language and be more careful what you say. It seems like the that the 'lets use Polish' strategy was more a widely used trick than a systematic policy though.
