Prosna Bridgehead*
*
Date: September 1, 1939 *
*
Battle Location: Wyszanow, Poland*
*
Battle Type: Germany advance vs Poland delay*
*
Description: Shortly after the start of Fall Weiss the Aufklarungs Abteilung 10 was given orders to secure a bridgehead over the Prosna river near Wyszanow and hold it open for the rest of the 10. Infanterie-Division.*
*
Once the border between the Kaiser’s Germany and the Tsar’s Russia, the Prosna river was the day’s objective for the XIII Corps. AA10 reached Wyszanow by early afternoon and began the attack to clear the way to the Prosna. Gaining ground it appeared to become a relatively easy operation, but the Poles had something else in store for the men of the German reconnaissance battalion.*
