Panzer divisions spearheaded the German assault with Stuka dive-bombers prowling ahead spreading terror and mayhem. This book demonstrates how the Polish army was not as backward as it is often portrayed and fielded a tank force larger than that of the contemporary US Army. Its stubborn defence did give the Germans some surprises and German casualties were relatively heavy for such a short campaign.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49682877939952,"sku":"NEW1841764086","price":27.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/poland-1939-the-birth-of-blitzkrieg-campaign","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
