September Campaign

The September Campaign refers to a military operation during World War II, specifically the German invasion of Poland in September 1939. This swift and brutal campaign marked the beginning of the war in Europe. Germany used a strategy called “Blitzkrieg,” combining fast-moving ground troops with aerial bombardments to overwhelm Polish defenses. The campaign lasted from September 1 to October 6, resulting in Poland's quick defeat and division between Germany and the Soviet Union. It demonstrated the effectiveness of modern warfare tactics and set the stage for further conflicts in Europe.
