Józef Kowalski (2 February 1900 – 7 December 2013) was a Polish supercentenarian and the second-to-last surviving veteran of the 1919–1921 Polish-Soviet War (Alexander Imich was the last). Kowalski served in the 22nd Uhlan Regiment of the Polish Army. He served in several important battles of the war, including the battles of Warsaw and Komarów. He later took part in the September Campaign during World War II. After being captured he was held in a concentration camp. On his 110th birthday, he was awarded the Officer's Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta for his war service by President Lech Kaczyński, of Poland. He lived in Tursk, near Sulęcin, in a care home. On 23 February 2012 Kowalski was promoted to the rank of kapitan, and on 16 August 2012 he was nominated to become an honorary citizen of the city of Wołomin, having already become an honorary citizen of both Warsaw and Radzymin.
