Sanok, Poland 1939-09-06 (9 others)

Overview:

Under the pretext that Poland had appropriated certain Slovak territories during the Munich Crisis in September 1938, the Slovak government contributed three infantry divisions to the German Army Group South, specifically the 14th Army. They were tasked with flank protection of the eastern wing of the Army Group South’s initial thrust into the Carpathian area of Poland. One such town that had to be cleared was Sanok. The Polish units in the area were mainly lightly armed border units which did not have much in the way of artillery or heavy support weapons. The recon company moved into position and at once dismounted from their bicycles and wagons. They led an assault with support from some light mortars.
