"Since dawn, the defense forces of the German Reich have counter-attacked the aggressive Polish Army units that attacked the German Radio station yesterday."

-- German propaganda message, September 1st, 1939

There was some very tough fighting, but, Poland had no chance, especially once the Soviet Union invaded Poland just weeks after Sept. 1st.

PS If the German Pzkw I is your favorite tank, then the POLISH Campaign is definitely for you.

Second Sino-Japanese War beginning in 1937 was a precursor to their involvement in WW2. Japanese invaded Manchuria over half a decade earlier than that.

Two world wars and millions dead due to a wrong turn along with one British infantryman who didn't shoot one injured German soldier.

I’d give it to 1931 and the Japanese invasion of Manchuria but it takes all kinds to make the world go ‘round. Or this case make the world blow up.

If you went back and knew what America and the West looks like in 2026…

…would you get on the boat for D-Day?

We should’ve just allowed Germany and the communists to kill themselves into oblivion.

Germany would have wiped the floor with the Soviets if we hadn’t provided equipment.

More Pz IIs than PzIs, yes, BUT by May 1940 when Germany invaded France the lowly Pz I was a rather rare tank to see on the battlefield ( only 1 in 5 German tanks ).

So if your fave German tank is the Pz I, then Poland it is for you.

Did you read about how those Pz I tanks DOMINATED when the Polish Cavalry Lancers charged them? Those spear tips just scratched the paint on those awesome Pz Is.

Began.

The correct grammar would be "we've only just began".

I think.

Let’s settle this like gentlemen.

Contestants

Pz. I


Pz. II


And, the one you both have excluded for some reason..

Pz. 38T


Personally, I’d vote the Pz. 38T. It had better armor, vastly superior firepower, and solid cross country performance.
