In 1939 more than 10,000 Polish cavalrymen charged against German tanks...

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_at_Krojanty
>The Polish cavalry charge stopped the German pursuit for the day, and the units of Czersk Operational Group were able to withdraw southwards unopposed. Also, it took the Germans several hours to reorganise and continue the advance. On September 2, 1939, the 18th Pomeranian Uhlans Regiment was decorated by Gen. Grzmot-Skotnicki, the commander of the Operational Group, with his own Virtuti Militari medal for valour shown in this combat.

>The same day, German war correspondents were brought to the battlefield, together with two journalists from Italy. They were shown the corpses of Polish cavalrymen and their horses, as well as German tanks that had arrived at the place after the battle. One of the Italian correspondents, Indro Montanelli, sent home an article, in which he described the bravery and heroism of Polish soldiers, who charged German tanks with sabres and lances. Although such a charge did not happen and there were no tanks used during the combat, the myth was used by German propaganda during the war. German propaganda magazine Die Wehrmacht reported on 13 September that the Poles had gravely underestimated German weapons, as Polish propaganda had suggested that German armored vehicles were only covered with sheet metal, leading to a grotesque attack. After the end of World War II, it was still used by Soviet propaganda as an example of stupidity of pre-war Polish commanders, who allegedly did not prepare their country for the war and instead wasted the blood of their soldiers. As late as the 1990s, this myth was still taught in history classes in American high schools and colleges.

Nope. That was Italians against reds. They win.
All infantry move on foot and have horse drawn artillery or supply wagons.
Main reason why Germans resort to foraging on locals on eastern front - massive amounts of men and horses mobilised for war reduced food production.
Yep. Pure propaganda. Organised by Goebbels Ministry of Propaganda(no jokes). They used Slovak soldiers for this.
Things that never happen.
There were few episodes when Polish cavalry actually charged on Germans but it was limited, often successful and never against tanks.
Polish cavalry brigades were units with long traditions, trained soldiers and antiarmour weapons(anti-armour rifles, AT guns and artillery pieces). Highly mobile as horses were used for rapid movement and deployment.

The first 2.5 minutes of that video is decently accurate

There were one or two in the Pacific theater that I think were after Isubukenji (or however the fuck you spell it)

Is that video some kind of soviet propaganda or an actual movie?

Double troll attempt, nice

7/10

what a bunch of retard tbqh

>Nope. That was Italians against reds. They win.

I recall there was a encounter later in the war where some Italian cavalry unit got literally run over by a Russian tank unit.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Schoenfeld

>In March 1945, the First Army of the Polish People's Army was advancing into Pomerania as part of an overall push by Soviet forces to reach the Baltic Sea and the area of Stettin (some 50 miles (80 km) northwest of Schoenfeld). Schoenfeld was part of the third line of fortifications built by the Germans to shelter Pomerania from attack.

>An initial Polish attack on Schoenfeld with tanks and infantry of the 2nd Infantry Division foundered in the low, open wetlands that were dominated by the fire of infantry and antitank guns from Schoenfeld, which sat at a slightly higher elevation on a small hill (Hill 157). German troops defending the village were part of the 163rd Infantry Division.[1]

>The 1st "Warsaw" Independent Cavalry Brigade was then employed against the German position. Two squadrons (companies[2]) of cavalry supported by the elements of the horse--artillery company, having used a ravine to cover their approach to their infantry and tanker brothers-in-arms, charged through the smoke of burning tanks,[3] and achieved tactical surprise with a swift mounted assault that overran the German antitank gun positions[4] on the forward slope of Hill 157. This success was followed by an attack into the village itself by the cavalry, who by this time had been joined by the infantry and tanks.[5] In the face of this development, the surviving German defenders withdrew, allowing the Poles to consolidate their gains in and around the village at 1700.[6] 7 Polish cavalry men, 124 Polish infantry, and 16 tank men were dead for circa 500 dead Germans.

OP is a fag

btw. this clips is from communist propaganda movie "Lotna". i was made to discredit pre-war polish millitary.

it* was made...

Well maybe the Poleroaches shouldn't have mobilized their troops against germany first (spring of 1939) unprovoked and before that killed tens of thousands of germans between 1920 and 1939 along with attacking virtually all of their other neighbouring nations during the same time period

rofl

>killed tens of thousands of germans between 1920 and 1939 along with attacking virtually all of their other neighbouring nations during the same time period
the fuck are ficking?

Its b8 m8

Hello Hans

Nothing wrong with that, they died while defending their country

...

You did your best.

>Poles
No surprise there.

Cavalry is pretty effective assuming you enemy isn't entrenched or has armored support, but even then, you could give you men a whole bunch of anti tank grenades and just zerg rush the tanks in a hail of grenades and horses. One of them is bound to hit something

>2016
>Still believing shit-tier propaganda that the nazis invented to give a hollow justification to their illegal war of conquest

>Poles fighting with poles...

You know who else used horses? Nazis, Nazis had loads and loads of horses.
