Talk:Siege of Warsaw (1939)

message: Erich von Manstein article mentions: He was first to strike into Warsaw's suburbs. How accurate is this - perhaps this should be added to our article, if correct? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 12:32, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: The person to write such rubbish must've liked Manstein a lot. In fact he was a chief of staff of von Rundstedt's Army Group South, under which fought the 4th division. However, it is highly unlikely Manstein was there personally. Halibutt 03:33, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

message: What are the sources for the casualties.
I don't know the sources for figures quoted  in the article.
Reliable sources are official Polish documents available in libraries in Warsaw and London.
German sources are:
Janusz Piekalkiewicz: Der Zweite Weltkrieg - Econ, München, 1987
Herbert Drescher: Warschau und Modlin im Polenfeldzug 1939 : Berichte und Dokumente - Pforzheim 1991
"Fall Weiss" quotes:
10 000 and approx 35 000 wounded in civilian population, approx 2 000 killied and 16 000 wounded Polish soldiers.  12% abuildings in city detroyed.
No German casualties reported. However TOTAL German casualties in 1939 campaign in Poland are:
10 572 killed;  30 322 wounded;  3 409 missing per official German Wehrmacht sources.

message: What was the relation between Warsaw and Modlin Armies? Some sources note that Modlin was defended by Warsaw Army or was its theatre of operations, other note it was the role of Modlin Army. Also, looking at the map, why were the forces near Warsaw formed into a new Army instead of assigned to the Modlin Army?-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  18:46, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

message: What is going on????
The section of the article fro the middle of the section "Casualties" has been cut off.
All attempts to add it back in have failed

message: This sentence seems out of place "Under the international rules regarding aerial warfare in 1939 Warsaw was considered a legitimate military target as the city was on the front line during the fighting and it was heavily defended by the Polish army.[2]". I haven't seen any similar statements on other articles, so what makes this one special? Could be moved further down, if it wasn't already. Rousillon (talk) 13:37, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
