1st Polish Armoured Division.

Polish lancers on manoeuvres, April 1939.  Polish cavalry did, in fact, have some success against the Germans the following September when (as was almost always the case) they were directed against infantry.  However - and not surprisingly - they could not overcome the serious disadvantage suffered by cavalry when faced by well-organised infantry, particularly where the latter were equipped with modern magazine-loading rifles.  In consequence, casualties tended to be heavy.  Best regards, JR.
