Dear Seelangers,

I am looking for English equivalents for two terms,
both related to the leftist underground press in
Poland in the 30's.

The first is 'wojskowka', the underground political
press aimed at soldiers ;

the second is "bibula", a general term for
underground political literature. The term
was also used to describe Polish samizdat,
as well.

Does anyone have any knowledge of terms in
English that were used before or during WWII
that might make good equivalents?

Please reply off list. Thanks in advance for
any ideas.
