"In retrospect it is obvious that in 1939 the Germans were not ready for war on two fronts simultaneously. They had only 98 divisions, of which 52 were active. Of the remaining 46, only 10 were fit for immediate action, be-cause the remainder had only a month or so of training."
M.K. Dziewanowski's book, War at Any Price. A History of World War II, 1939-1945, Prentice Hall, 1991.
Y de una página fascista donde el notas dice que Alemania fue la agredida y que desde el siglo XII Alemania ha entrado en guerra muy pocas veces en comparación con España por ejemplo (en que año "nace" Alemania?) reincide:
"Germany was able to mobilise just ninety-eight divisions of which only fifty-two were active (including Austrian divisions). Of the remaining 46 divisions only 10 were fit for action on mobilisation and even in these the bulk of them were raw recruits who had been serving for less than one month."
Segun la History de la BBC
"62 German divisions supported by 1,300 aircraft commenced the invasion of Poland."
Y ejemplos mas detallados cifran:
"The invading force was composed of five armies and reserves (14 Infantry, 1 Panzer and 2 Mountain Divisions), all under command of General Walther von Brauchitsch. Germans attacked from three directions - Silesia / Moravia and Slovakia, Western Pomerania and East Prussia. Colonel General Gerd von Rundstedt's Army Group South was composed of General Blaskowitz's 8th, General von Reichenau's 10th and General-Colonel List's 14th Army. In total, Army Group South had 18 Infantry, 4 Slovak Infantry, 1 Mountain Division, 2 Motorized, 4 Light Motorized, 4 Panzer Divisions and attacked from Silesia / Moravia and Slovakia. In total, German forces included some 1.850.000 soldiers, over 3100 tanks and 10000 artillery pieces along with 2085 airplanes (grouped in two air fleets - Luftflotte).”
O sea, 50 divisiones. Pero hay quien dice mas y quien dice menos según tengan en cuenta unos factores u otros.
Eso sí, lo de las 98 divisiones es un dato que se repite.
