Overview:
The Polish city of Szack was defended by a number of fortified strong points. The German 10th Infantry Regiment was assigned the task of assaulting and reducing Fort number IX. The fort was assaulted from several directions at once. From the north the 3rd Platoon, 2nd Company, 88th Pioneer Battalion assaulted across a causeway but were stopped with heavy losses. The 1st Platoon attempted to cross the water filled AT Ditch on pneumatic boats supported by machine gun and mortar fire. During the first assault the first boat didn’t even reach the water before it was destroyed and the assault stopped. The boats were moved to a different location and the assault carried over the water obstacle. Supporting machine guns suppressed the defenders fire allowing the pioneers to cross the ditch. This was the beginning of the end for the defenders of Fort IX.Attacker: German (2nd Company, Pioneer Battalion 88)
Defender: Polish (15th Cavalry Brigade)
