Bloody Sunday (1939)From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJump to navigationJump to searchWehrmacht soldiers and journalists with German victims of Bloody Sunday.[1]The photo was utilized by the Nazi press and bears the editor\'s cropping marks, showing the portion of the image that was intended to be used for publication.[2]

Bloody Sunday(German:Bromberger Blutsonntag;Polish:Krwawa niedziela) was a sequence of violent events that took place inBydgoszcz(German:Bromberg), aPolishcity with a sizableGerman minority, between 3 and 4 September 1939, during theGerman invasion of Poland.

After GermanSelbstschutzsnipers fired on retreating Polish troops, there was a Polish reaction against the German minority and then the retaliatory execution of Polish hostages by theWehrmachtandSelbstschutz, after the fall of the city. All these events resulted in the deaths of both German and Polish civilians. The PolishInstitute of National Remembrancefound and confirmed 254Lutheranvictims, assumed to be German civilians, and 86Catholicvictims, assumed to be Polish civilians, as well as 20 Polish soldiers. Approximately 600–800 Polish hostages were shot in amass executionin the aftermath of the fall of the city as a \"revenge\".

After the Germans took over the city, they killed 1,200–3,000 Polish civilians in retaliation, as part ofOperation Tannenberg. The event and place of execution became known as theValley of Death. The murdered included the president of Bydgoszcz, Leon Barciszewski. Fifty Polish prisoners of war from Bydgoszcz were later accused by NaziSondergericht Brombergsummary courts for taking part in \"Bloody Sunday\" and shot.

[September 10 - Bloody Sunday Of Bromberg - If The Light Clashes With Darkness There Is No Making Of Agreements, There Is Only A Fight Of Life And Death Until The One Or The Other Part Is Destroyed.]DescriptionThe \'Bloody Sunday of Bromberg\' was an incident in 1939 in which several German civilians living in Poland were killed after attacks on Polish troops in the area. The art shows a German soldier comforting a woman with a child while the sun rises over a ruined city in the background. Quote by Dietrich Eckart. From the week 6-12 September, 1942.Unable to stem the onrush of German forces during the invasion of their country, Polish soldiers and civilians started fleeing eastwards. It was during this flight to the east that the ethnic German civilians, resident in Poland for many years, received the full impact of the spite and hate stored up in the hearts of the fleeing Polish soldiers and their civilian followers. German houses were entered and the occupants arrested and then murdered. Not all were shot, many were brutally put to death by all sorts of tools and their bodies severely mutilated. As the soldiers left to search for more German houses, their civilian helpers were left behind to plunder and steal and in most cases, to set the house on fire. Many of the German women were raped before being shot. During this retreat from the west, the Polish soldiers, together with the civilian irregulars, were responsible for the deaths of around 6,000 German residents. At a later investigation, the testimonies of 593 witnesses established the fact that at least 3,841 named ethnic Germans were murdered by the Poles prior to the full German occupation. In September, 1939 these Volksdeutsche formed themselves into Self-Protection units known as Selbschutz and came under the control of the SS and later under the Ordungspolizei (Order Police). The infamous reputation that it earned caused it to be disbanded on 30th of November, 1939.
