Panzer III tanks and other vehicles of a German military column cross a bridge in the Pomeranian Voivodeship in September 1939, continuing the rapid advance through the Polish Corridor. After Polish engineers had blown up several Vistula crossings, including the bridge at Dirschau, German engineer units were forced to build makeshift crossings or quickly secure intact bridges. Such convoy footage exemplifies the pace of the so-called Blitzkrieg.
