SGS Fall Weiss Build 12089494 (upd.07.09.2023)

SGS Fall Weiss (German for White Plan, the code name for the operation) covers the Polish campaign from September to October 1939. The Second World War officially commenced with Germanys invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939. This initiation came after Hitlers initial plan to launch the operation on August 26, but due to diplomatic considerations, it was postponed. Nevertheless, not all the specialized units responsible for actions behind Polish lines received the counter-order in time, resulting in various clashes. The German forces displayed incredible speed, brutality, and what was rapidly characterized as blitzkrieg tactics. Interestingly, the term «blitzkrieg» was coined by Western journalists and was not an official military concept.
