Re: Breakout of the German casualties in Poland 1939
If Elble gives such a funny, low numbers (more over - allegedly for the whole campaign, not only for the battle at the Bzura) for casualties of these few divisions (which were involved in heavy combats yet since the very first day of the campaign and took probably the heaviest beating and suffered p...

Re: German Losses against France, May-June 1940.
Edited version of the previous post (I couldn't edit it): Some time ago someone asked where the Germans suffered their losses in the French Campaign in 1940. Btw - I have a small question partially related to the battle of Hannut-Gembloux and partially to the battle of Ernage-Gembloux from 15th of ...

Re: THE TANK ACES.
Orlik's victories (kills) during combat of Pociecha (1., 2. and 3.): By the way - this map was made by plutonowy podchorąży Roman Edmund Orlik himself, but most probably after the war - so at least several years later. It is really impressive how damned exact it is, despite it was made so long afte...

Re: Wisloka on Sep 8 1939.
If you carefully re-read that topic on Odkrywca you'll find my attempt. Thanks Njorl, I found it ;). Btw: All of these photos of knocked out tanks during the battle of Wysoka, which have been posted here (total 5 photos), come from the German album.

Panzer-Division) eliminated 7 Polish tanks and that during the same battle one of Polish 7TP tanks (2. light tank battalion) e...
