Hitler leans over a situation map with senior officers, among them Colonel General Walther von Brauchitsch and Major General Franz Halder, tracking the Wehrmacht's advance. His mobile headquarters during the Polish campaign was housed in a special train, from which he followed operations near the border of the Polish Corridor. Brauchitsch, commander-in-chief of the army, and Halder, chief of the general staff, planned the rapid thrust meant to force Poland's surrender within weeks. The footage comes from unedited material on the outbreak of war in September 1939.
