Shame on you Mr. Babbin

The subject of Polish cavalry charging German tanks during the very first months of World World II known as 1939 September Campaign comes up in the mass media quite often to describe any action deemed illogical or simply stupid.  How did brave Polish soldiers, who stood up to the Hitler, became a Polish joke to the modern society?

In short, German Nazi propaganda, and later, communist revisionists worked hard to paint Poles as backward nation in late 30s.  No so, according to historians.  Horses were used mainly to transport soldiers to the battlefield were they would use modern weaponry to fight Germans.  The whole story of tank charging came up when cavalry squadron was ambushed during the Battle of Krojanty.
To escape, the cavalry had to find a way to save the squadron and ran through the enemy lines.   Does anyone really believes that professional soldiers would attack tanks with swords?

Just today, on Dennis Miller Radio Show, Mr. Jed Babbin used Poles charging the German tanks as an example of failed policies of President Obama.  Although, I respect Mr. Babbin work and his commitment to the right cause, I am surprised that person with his experience would promote such false statements.  Shame on you Mr. Babbin.
