Tommy Wrote:village of Skshelchitse


If I were to guess, I would say it's Skrzelczyce. I have found only one village by that name and it's south of Kielce, so, quite far away from Oder. On the other hand, this citation covers a few offensives, so...


The third citation is wonderful. >>Shouting "Haende Hoch"<<:thumbsup

Ah cool! Thanks Kamil.

That citation covers 3 months worth of fighting i suppose. Perhaps my sentence should have read, this was awarded for cumulative actions between Skrzelczyce & the River Oder? As it does specifically mention the crossing.

Sounds likely - Kielce were liberated on January 15th, so it would fit.
