I actually thought that the Polish were technologically behind (like the French and Americans at the beginning), but I guess I was wrong. I DID know that they had (almost) the same amount of men as the Germans, but that their lines were spread so thin because of the length of the Polish border, so the Germans slipped and pushed through the openings.

I also learned that the Polish air force was greatly damaged on the ground, but that the remaining planes destroyed or damaged 500 Luftwaffe planes. Amazing. I got much of my information out of a book called the Atlas of WWII and another book called simply World War Two.

This is a good page (I know, it's Wikipedia, but I'm lazy and I like Wikipedia): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_...bution_to_WWII
