The parade was commanded by Divisional General Jerzy Skalski of the Warsaw Military District, who reported to General Florian Siwicki, Minister of National Defence and presiding officer for the parade. Among the distinguished Polish attendees were First Secretary of the PKLN and Prime Minister Wojciech Jaruzelski as well as Henryk Jabłoński, the de facto head of state as the Chairman of the Council of State. Delegations from countries such as Cuba, Bulgaria and Mongolia attended the parade, including the United States, which was represented by Chargé d'affaires John R. Davis.
