INTRODUCTION
German battleship ‘Schleswig-Holstein’ started the bombardment of Polish Military Transit
Depot on the 1st of September 1939 at 04:48 a.m. This was followed by the attack of the
Krigsmarine assault company, supported by Gdansk SS regiments. The double German
onslaught collapsed under continuous Polish defence fire. Each following day of defending
the Depot strengthened the morale of Polish soldiers. At the same time, the Germans
confronted with fierce resistance and well planned defence system were helpless. The
German Blitzkrieg turned into war of attrition, which could not be concluded by either
battleship bombardment on 1st of September, artillery bombardments from both land and
sea, or heavy air bombardments on the 2nd of September. The Westerplatte peninsula,
covered with bomb craters, was easier to defend. The morale of the defenders was rising,
and a small number of wounded soldiers did not significantly weaken the defence abilities
of Polish troops.
The German helplessness elicited Adolf Hitler’s fury. Unl the 7th of September, apart from
gathering informaon about their enemy, Germans did not manifest much acvity on land. Aer
the reconnaissance aack on the 7th of September, the Germans decided to block the Depot
without trying to conquer it. The Germans were waing for the outcome of bales for Gdynia
and Kepa Oksywska. The greater was their surprise when unexpectedly, above the barracks, no
ght occurred and the white ag was hanged out. The defenders were startled and despaired
aer the capitulaon was announced by the commander of the Depot: Henryk Sucharski.
I hope that thanks to ‘7 days of Westerplae’ – game which loosely refers to the history of
defending the Polish Military Transit Depot, many players (especially the young ones), will
become interested in this event of Polish history.
