==Revenge== | |||
Tannenberg and Grunwald are different places and what we call Battle of Tannenberg happened in 1914 between Russians and Germans. | |||
The Germans may have redeemed themselves by this victory after the loss in 1410, but how exactly did they get revenge if they were fighting the Russians and not the Poles? Did Hindenburg really view this as "revenge", or is it just a poor choice of words? ] 15:13, 2 September 2005 (UTC) | |||
How is this battle called ? --] | |||
:Urg -- I probably should have called this one First Battle of T or B of T (I) -- duh! I knew there was a WWII B of T... D'oh! Taw, they're both called the same thing. Any opiniions on how to remedy? ] | |||
::You mean WW1, or was ther one more battle of Tannenberg I'm not aware of ? Anyway do it like Polish done ! 1410 battle is "Battle of Grunwald" and 1914 battle is "Battle of Tannenberg". Or make "Battle of Tannenberg" article just pair of links: to "1410 Battle of Grunwald/Battle of Tannenberg" and "1914 Battle of Tannenberg". | |||
:::Sorry, I'm a bit out of it today -- 'flu, I'm afraid. That one...WWI...1914...that's what I meant. My only objection to doing it the Polish way is that English speakers are probably not familiar with Grunwald, so it won't do any good. ] By the way -- where's that table of names -- I've got some current English versions to add... | |||

Umm, Are you _sure_ that Grunwald was theme of Aleksander Nevsky? I always thought that it was about totally different battle! And Bohemians fough in Polish army too... | |||

Revenge
The Germans may have redeemed themselves by this victory after the loss in 1410, but how exactly did they get revenge if they were fighting the Russians and not the Poles? Did Hindenburg really view this as "revenge", or is it just a poor choice of words? Appleseed 15:13, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
