Attack of the Dead Men

The Battle of Osowiec Fortress, commonly known as the Attack of the Dead Men, was a battle fought in the First World War between the German and Russian Empires on 6 August 1915 in the territory that is now the modern-day Poland. The battle gained its nickname due to the Russians looking zombie-like corpses in the battlefield after being attacked by chemical and biological weapons from the Germans. Most of them even coughed out of blood and organs which is terrifying and brutal.
