Very impressive pics from the short Polish campaign.
Does anybody have the famous pic where the Pl cavalry attacks german tanks with drawn swords?
War does not determine who is right,war determens who is left.

Einzelne geräumige Getreidespeicher, in denen die Banden Munition und Verpflegung gelagert haben,
gehen nach heftigem Feuerwechsel in Flammen auf. Erst nachdem alles vernichtet ist rücken die Polizeieinheiten ab.

on the first day of war, on the first day of the biggest tragedy the world has ever seen. For him the war ended on the very day it started....

And that's why maybe in a way he was lucky, at least if comparing with those who died at the very end of war...

Another tragic photo:

Somewhere in Poland, 1939. Combat for this village has been won. German soldiers from 1. Gebirgs-Division can rest and drink some water from a well. Near them - a fallen (maybe he was also thirsty) Polish soldier lies...
