Battle of Tannenberg 100 years ago today
-
Today a hundred years ago the legandary partnership between Paul von Hindenburg and Erich Ludendorff was born. The rushed together German 8th Army destroyed the Russian 2nd army in East Prussia.
The Russian failed attack did take pressure off the Western Front when Moltke the Younger removed two corp to the East.

It happened during the previous days, although there were no doubt still clashes between the German 8th Army and the remains of the Russian 2nd Army.
Had to get a mention of Tannenberg on this site.

I don’t understand the “previous days” part. The Battle of Tannenberg was fought on 26-30 August 1914, so its anniversary starts more than three weeks from now.

I swear guys! I’m not drunk when I get on this site. My dates are getting really f#%& up.
Some one else needs to pick up the WWI discussion. Because I am clearly shooting in the dark.
