History Short: Tito’s Close Call In WWI #history #ww1 #cavalry #sabaton #east #1915 #historyfacts

On March 25th, 1915, near Bukovina, the right flank of a young soldier’s unit suddenly gave way. Through the gap poured Circassian cavalrymen, their horses thundering across the field, men leaping from their saddles with lances lowered. One young soldier braced himself as a lance struck him in the back just below the left arm. He would later recall the Circassians began to butcher the surviving wounded. Yet before the carnage could continue, Russian infantry arrived and brought the attack to an end. Among the survivors of that brutal day was a young soldier named Josip Broz, later to be known as Tito.
