Don't get me wrong, they fought bravely and inflicted a surprising amount of casualties given what they had, but were they able to say they won any individual battle?

Beat me to it. I remember Mokra at least. There's still at least a couple veterans left which would make them veterans of earliest battles of WWII.

Also some general who later fought with the Allies had to break through either Soviet or German armies which was incredibly badass.

In the battle of Mokra they used an armored train. Awesome.

Should that be our version of dubs?

Does anyone know of any historical Polish cavalrymen who were actual heroes during World War II? I don't speak Polish so I can't easily ask Poles such a question?

The most impressive Polish fighting to me was Westerplatte. A German victory, but holy shit!

Major Hubal for example. Not his real name but it was a custom for Polish soldiers from WWI to anti communist uprising after WWII to have a pseudonym.

Called the first partisan of WWII he lead a very mobile cavalry unit behind enemy lines. Basically the last remnant of the tactic that was a couple centuries old. Finally killed in action in April 1940.

When was this pic taken and have you any other info on armored trains used?
