COBI Polish Uhlans Figure Pack: World War II Cavalry Set

Relive the heroic stand of the Polish cavalry with the COBI Polish Uhlans Figure Pack. This set pays tribute to the legendary mounted soldiers who served as the elite eyes and ears of the Polish Army during the opening stages of World War II.

Historical Context: The Legend of the Polish Uhlans

The Polish Uhlans were renowned for their bravery and tactical flexibility. Contrary to popular myths of charging tanks with lances, the Uhlans were highly trained mobile infantry. They utilized horses for rapid deployment across difficult terrain, typically dismounting to engage the enemy with carbines, machine guns, and anti-tank rifles.

One of their most famous engagements occurred on September 1, 1939, at the Charge at Krojanty, where Polish cavalry successfully dispersed German infantry before being caught in the open by armored scouts. This set allows you to recreate the pivotal moments of the 1939 Defensive War, honoring the soldiers of the Pomeranian Uhlan Regiments who fought with incredible distinction.
