    Actually, zhay and olric you both have points where you are correct, and when it comes to what the coalition should have done there is technically no right answer because you never know what may have happened either way

    One thing my friends learned long ago is never to challenge me on anything history.........


    The Charge of Krojanty was a cavalry charge that occurred during the Invasion of Poland in the Second World War. It took place on the evening of September 1, 1939, near the Pomeranian village of Krojanty. Polish soldiers advanced east along the former Prussian Eastern Railway to railroad crossroads 7 kilometres from the town of Chojnice (Konitz) where elements of the Polish cavalry attacked the German Wehrmacht infantry battalion. Polish cavalry being formed from the Prussian military tradition were considered to be among the best trained cavalry in the world at the time. During the attack the cavalry received machine gun fire from German armoured personnel carriers stationed nearby and was forced to retreat. Delay of the German advance is claimed as successful completion of the Poles' mission.
    Happening on the first day of the war, it was one of its first clashes, and part of the larger Battle of Tuchola Forest. The incident became notable as reporters visiting the site soon after saw the dead bodies of horses and cavalrymen. The scene of Polish cavalry charging the Panzers with their lances has become legend.

    You can mince words all you want. Yet we know that when a country falls or is formed it takes from its predessesors the history and inundation of that group of people. Poland being part of what was once the Prussian Empire.

    The incident became notable as reporters visiting the site soon after saw the dead bodies of horses and cavalrymenwhich led to false reports of Polish cavalry attacking German tanks. The scene of Polish cavalry charging the Panzers with their lances has become a myth.

    Sorry Olric, but the people need to know the truth

    i need to go find my book ( yes i still use that old fashion things )
    to give u the details - but from my memory the charge i was refering to was the one who was in some polish forest where when the polish army run out of mines. so to slow down the german panzers advance used ponies (cav charge)

    for as u might know dead ponies in tank tracks are very very messy - and u actually have to stop - and clean up before u can move on - and as such they did in a very unconventionel way stop the german advance for some time

    zhay


    and u might be right it is teh same battle - but i will check - and they were polish not prussian (u should know the difference if u really had studied history)

    Quite right quite right but you seemed to fail to reference the source in your piece.

    If you reference material, you need to cite it.
