The Polish Defenses Against the German Attack

Before March 1939, the shared Czechoslovakia-Poland border was roughly north to south. The Polish defenses in this area had been largely neglected throughout the 1930s due to a low threat of war between the two nations. After the German takeover of March 1939, this situation completely changed and the Polish defensive frontier against the German attack expanded greatly. These defenses would be attacked by the German 7th Infantry Division, which would advance out of Slovakia.
