Polish forces who liberated Breda...?

#1

Post by worthy_m » 19 Oct 2006, 03:00

I'm doing some research for my second hobby (military modelling), and I have a keen interest in the role the Polish played during the war.
I am interested if anyone can help me pin down exactly what forces liberated Breda - all I seem to find is that it was the Polish 1st armoured division, but what I would like to know, is which regiments, in fact which individual vehicles would have been in the town on the day it was liberated?
If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

I have the operational report for the Polish 1st Armored Division, and covers the period from August 7th to October 6th. Not sure if the capture of Breda falls in that time frame, but if you are interested e-mail me.
