#3 I don't recall any Spanish cavalry charges against armor. Not too bright, perhaps, but ballsy. And when you think about it, the same can be said for living between the Germans and Russians.

POLISH ARMY SAVES VIENNA FROM INVASION

The massive contribution of the Polish army, which combined with a German army, but under the overall command of the Polish general Jan III Sobieski, to the defeat of the invading Turkish hordes outside the gates of Vienna in 1683, cannot be overstated - it was crucial and very possibly without the Polish intervention, Vienna would have fallen to the Turks, which would have then opened the way for the final Turkish conquest and Islamification of all of Europe.
