Hi Bob,
Couldn't help but check your profile...
On this day...
Sunday, September 10, 1939
In Poland... Polish armies are ordered to conduct a general retreat to defensive positions in the southeast. The Luftwaffe conducts 15 air raids on Warsaw. German forces broadcast a false news bulletin, announcing the fall of the capital on the same wavelength as Radio Warsaw.
On the Western Front... In reply to insistent demands by the Polish Commander-in-Chief, Marshal Smigly-Rydz, the French Chief of the General Staff, General Gamelin, announces that more than half of his active divisions are in contact with the enemy on the northeast front and that he can do no more.
In France... The first major units of BEF begin to land. Field Marshal Lord Gort is in command. Small advance parties have been arriving since September 4th. In the first month 160,000 men, 24,000 vehicles and 140,000 tons of supplies are sent to France.
In Ottawa... The government of Canada declares war on Germany. The Canadians are the last of the great Dominions to declare war, however, the few days of hesitation permits the accelerated delivery from the US of large amounts of war goods which are now barred under American neutrality laws.
In the North Sea... The British submarine Triton mistakenly torpedoes the British submarine Oxley.
You would have driven some automotive history in your time - I'm sure! ;)
