  • East German TO&Es 1980-1989 V1.3
    East German TO&Es 1980-1989 v1.3 BATTLEGROUP CWEG-01 (a) The East German Army (NVA) had x2 Panzer Divisions (7th & Panzer Division 1980s (a) 9th) and x4 Panzer-Grenadier Divisions (1st, 4th, 8th & 11th). These were grouped into two higher administrative formations – the BATTLEGROUPS 3rd and 5th Military Districts. Each Military District had x1 Panzer Division and x2 Panzer-Grenadier Divisions, plus Army Support BG CWEG-03 Assets. Some sources record these formations as ‘Armies’, but in x3 Panzer Regiment reality the Military Districts were administrative formations only. In war the six East German divisions would have come under the BG CWEG-04 command of five of the six Soviet Armies in Germany (28th, 2nd Guards, 8th Guards, 20th Guards & 3rd Shock Armies, but not 1st x1 Panzer-Grenadier Regiment (Tracked) Guards Army), while the East German Army support assets would form the Army Troops of 2nd Guards Army and 8th Guards Army. BG CWEG-08 Consequently, East German divisions could have Soviet Army x1 Panzer-Reconnaissance Battalion Troops in support and vice versa. The East Germans were widely regarded as the most reliable of all Warpac armies (the expression ‘There’s none so fanatical as a convert’ springs to mind) and in x1 Pioneer Battalion (b) some cases were regarded as more combat-efficient than many Soviet units in Germany. FIRE SUPPORT ELEMENTS (b) The Divisional Pioneer Battalion had a single Pioneer Company that could be considered an ME for game purposes (ME CWEG- FSE CWEG-05 14), while the rest of the battalion consisted of road-building, Divisional Artillery Regiment bridging, amphibian, position preparation and demolition equipment, which is unlikely to feature very heavily in a game.

The text is also available in French and Russian (see attached pdf files). The Battle of Warsaw was one of the most important moments of the Polish-Bolshevik war, one of the most decisive events in the history of Poland, Europe and the entire world. However, excluding Poland, this fact is almost completely unknown to the citizens of European countries. This phenomenon was noticed a decade after the battle had taken place by a British diplomat, Lord Edgar Vincent d’Abernon, a direct witness of the events. In his book of 1931 “The Eighteenth Decisive Battle of the World: Warsaw, 1920”, he claimed that in the contemporary history of civilisation there are, in fact, few events of greater importance than the Battle of Warsaw of 1920. There is also no other which has been more overlooked. To better understand the origin and importance of the battle of Warsaw, one needs to become acquainted with a short summary of the Polish-Bolshevik war and, first and foremost, to get to know the goals of both fighting sides. We ought to start with stating the obvious, namely, that the Bolshevik regime, led by Vladimir Lenin, was, from the very beginning, focused on expansion. Prof. Richard Pipes, a prolific American historian, stated: “the Bolsheviks took power not to change Russia, but to use it as a trampoline for world revolution”.

    TOPICAL DIALOGUES N 8 2019 The present electronic bulletin “Topical Dialogues – 2019” was issued with the support of Black Sea Trust for Regional Cooperation (a project by the G. Marshall Fund). Opinions expressed in this bulletin do not necessarily represent those of the Black Sea Trust or its partners. 2 Content ONE TOPIC - TWO AUTHORS SUZANNA BARSEGHYAN (Armenia) The perceptions of the “enemy’s image” in Armenia -------------------------------5 ARIF YUNUSOV (Azerbaijan) Stereotypes and the “image of the enemy” in Azerbaijan--------------------------13 Arif Yunusov’s comment on Suzanna Barseghyan’s article ----------------------25 Suzanna Barseghyan’s comment on Arif Yunusov’s article ----------------------28 3 One topic covered by two authors In this issue of the bulletin we bring to you an Armenian and Azerbaijani authors' views of the origin and functions of the image of the enemy in their respective societies. And in the “Comments to the Articles” section , the Armenian and Azerbaijani authors commented on each other’s articles. Judging by the content of these comments, the discussion at distance could still be continued by a whole series of new comments. But both the articles and these first comments reflect both the attitude to the opposite side in each country, and the perception of this attitude at the moment. The materials were prepared within the framework of the “Public Dialogues for Communication between Armenian and Azerbaijani Specialists” project, implemented by the “Region” Research Center. The project is supported by the Black Sea Trust for Regional Cooperation (BST). The project partner is the Institute for Peace and Democracy (the Netherlands). The "Public Dialogues" website (www.publicdialogues.info) was created in 2012 by the “Region” Research Center and the Institute for Peace and Democracy which operated in Azerbaijan at the time.
