It was created in January 1919 in Poznan , as part of Polish forces fighting in the Greater Poland Uprising ( 1918 – 1919 ) ) . Its organizer and first commandant was General Filip Dubiski . In the following months , several regiments creater in the Greater Poland towns joined the unit , and in the summer of 1919 , the Division was sent to the east , to fight the Red Army south of Polotsk . On December 19 , 1919 , its name was changed from 1st Division of Greater Poland rifles into 14 Greater Poland Infantry Division . The unit fought in the Polish - Soviet war , and in December 1920 , after the truce , it returned to its homeland , to Poznan . According to the Plan Wschod , the Division was supposed to serve as a rear unit , but as in late 1930s German threat became real , on March 23 , 1939 , the Division became part of newly created Poznan Army , under General Tadeusz Kutrzeba ( see : Plan Zachod ) . Mobilization took place between August 24 and 27 . As the Wehrmacht did not cary out attacks on Greater Poland in the first days of the Polish September Campaign , the Division did not engage in combat until Sept . 8 . Then , it took part in the Battle of Bzura , fighting near the town of Piatek and breaking German lines . During the skirmishes , commandant of German 30 I . D , General Kurt von Briesen was injured and the Wehrmacht ordered a retreat . However , the Poles , without air and artillery support , did not take advantage of this breakthrough .

Only few soldiers managed to do so and hide in the forest . On September 19 , the remaining forces broke into besieged Warsaw . There , they fought until capitulation , on Sept . 28 .

OP Canopy Operation CANOPY ( OP Canopy ) was the Canadian Forces ( CF ) participation in Canada efforts to help the residents of Kashechewan , Ontario during an evacuation of the community in late 2005 . Military personnel flew to Kashechewan to supplement local water treatment facilities . Media reports indicated 138 military personnel participated in OP Canopy , including : The detachment arrived in Kashechewan on October 30 , 2005 and , according to media reports , was producing treated water from raw water obtained from the Albany River within 12 hours of arrival . OP Canopy continued until December 16 , 2005 . The mission produced enough potable water to meet the community ’ s daily needs during the operation , as well as creating a reserve of treated water - a total of 140 , 000 litres ( almost 30 , 800 imperial gallons , or almost 37 , 000 U . S . gallons ) . Media coverage of documents released to Canadian media under Canada ' s Access to Information Act suggested the exercise was perceived as a public relations exercise . One report in the documents said , " No estimate , detailed planning or needs assessment were completed before the commitment of the personnel and equipment . . . Although an excellent PR exercise , the true need of the detachment was never established . " Other problems highlighted in media : While the Canadian Forces reportedly said OP Canopy cost about $ 350 , 000 in " incremental " expenses ( costs over and above operating and salary costs routinely spent even if the staff and equipment used had not been deployed to Kashechewan ) , an internal military e - mail reportedly puts the true cost at more than $ 860 , 000 , including pay for personnel and CC - 130 Hercules flights . Based on these figures , each litre of treated water cost approximately CDN $ 6 . 14 a litre to produce ( approximately CDN $ 27 . 92 per imperial gallon , or approximately CDN $ 23 . 24 per U . S . gallon ) .
