Wojski Hreczecha[1] from *[Pan Tadeusz](/source/Pan_Tadeusz)*)

A ***wojski*** ([Lithuanian](/source/Lithuanian_language): *Vaiskis*; [Medieval Latin](/source/Medieval_Latin): *tribunus*, hence sometimes rendered into English as **tribune**) was an officer in [medieval](/source/Medieval) [Poland](/source/Poland) and later in [Lithuania](/source/Lithuania), responsible for the security of [voivodeships](/source/Voivodeship) or districts at times when [voivods](/source/Voivode) and [castellans](/source/Castellan) had accompanied the *[szlachta](/source/Szlachta)* (nobility) to war.

With time, the *wojski'*s responsibilities were taken over by [starostas](/source/Starosta), and *wojski* became an honorary district office in the [Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth](/source/Polish%E2%80%93Lithuanian_Commonwealth).
