Map

As this article principally dscribes a specific area of land (albeit in relation to historical events), would it be possible for someone familiar with the Wikipedia 's mapping system, to draw up a map outlining the area referred to in the article. I think this would greatly improve reader's understanding of the area referred to. Canderra 19:08, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Preparation phase

cit: The area was also home to many munitions depots (that were prepared for the third wave of Polish troops) and was strongly linked to ports in Romania It would be interesting to know, when this infrastructure was prepared. In Czechoslovakia, there was no direct rail link from Prague to Romania, insufficient road infrastructure (bridges) to move heavy artillery eastwards, most munition depots were on the territory ceded to Germany etc..

I'm just guessing, but I think the Polish-Romanian rail link was the Galicia-to-Bukovina infrastructure established by the Austrians. Dahn 20:21, 7 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Gold reserves of NBP

Poland certainly did not posses 3 000 tones of gold in the interwar period, as quoted in the previous version of the article. Current Polish reserves are slightly over 100 tones (US 8,133.5, Germany 3,391.3). That would mean that pre-war reserves were at the level of current German ones - I believe we should not accept this as a fact without a source, hence I removed the number. I also could not find any support for the fact that there actually was a second part of the gold transport that was deposited in Romania, but this fact does not seem as unlikely. Some editing by a person with more knowledge of Polish gold reserves history would be welcome. 89.70.244.121 (talk) 19:12, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
