Pomeranian Army

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pomeranian Army (Polish: Armia Pomorze) was one of the Polish armies defending against the 1939 Invasion of Poland. It was officially created on 23 March 1939. Led by General dywizji Władysław Bortnowski, it consisted of 5 infantry divisions, 2 National Defence brigades and 1 cavalry brigade.

Tasks

The Army was tasked to defend Toruń and Bydgoszcz from a possible German attack and to carry out delaying actions in the "Polish Corridor" area.

Operational history

The Pomorze Army suffered severe losses during the Battle of Tuchola Forest; losing about a third of its strength. In retreat towards Warsaw from 6 September, it subordinated itself to Army Poznań and took part in the battle of Bzura (9–20 September).

Organization

The Army was commanded by General Władysław Bortnowski; his chief of staff was Colonel Ignacy Izdebski.
