These
were my first two articles were my first substantial
translations from French to English, and I
do not guarantee 100% accuracy. If readers need to check the material
first hand, then they
should contact me for the French version.

"Operations of the Polish 1st Cavalry Division in 1920"The
following comes from
“Opérations de la 1re
division de cavalerie polonaise contre les bolcheviks du 29 juillet au
18 octobre 1920” by Capitaine Moslard, which was published in
four sections in the Revue de
Cavalerie, starting from
March/April
1928.
The first section relates to general comments about the Polish and Soviet cavalry during the campaign. The second is accounts of a few actions, including the famous Battle of Komarów/Cześniki and the raid on Korosten. The maps are only required for the second section. Moslard

"Cavalry in the Russian Civil War"The
following again
comes from an
article by Capitaine Moslard in the Revue
de Cavalerie, Jan/Feb 1930.
The presented portion is from a
transcript of a presentation given in 1921 by General Shinkarenko to
officers in Poland. I have omitted Capitaine Moslard's comments
originally attached to it (since they relate only to French inter-war
cavalry theory, not the RCW).
Shinkarenko had a lot of experience commanding cavalry in the Volunteer Army and was therefore in a position to speak with authority, but his comments really only relate to the Denikin/Wrangel theatre of the war against the Bolsheviks. |
