On This Day in History - September 25, 1939
September 25, 1939 #OTD World War II: Warsaw, Poland suffered heavy Luftwaffe bombing and artillery bombardment as AH arrived to observe the attack. To the east, Soviet troops captured Bialystok, Poland. Meanwhile, Joseph Stalin proposed to the Germans that the Soviet Union would take Lithuania which was previously within the German sphere of influence; in exchange, the Soviets would give the portions of Poland near Warsaw which were previously within the Soviet sphere of influence but had already been overrun by German troops. Pictured: Aerial view of Warsaw, Poland, 25 September 1939; note Vistula River in the center of the photo.
