Forsowanie Sanu pod Rzuchowem przez c.k. XIV Korpus (14–16 X 1914 r.)
The article is an attempt to reconstruct and evaluate an armed clash which took place in Central Galicia in the Autumn of 1914. The Austro-Hungarian XIV Corps lead by General Josef Roth was able to cross the River San and gained a bridgehead at Rzuchów in the face of heavy Russian resistance, but was forced to retreat after two days. Inadequate artillery support on the Austro-Hungarian side, unfavourable weather conditions and, above all, a poor choice of landing area, all lead to a defeat and the loss of over a thousand men. Russian losses amounted to a similar figure.
