The first sentence of the introduction reads: "The SS Cavalry Brigade was a unit of the Waffen SS formed in 1940, from Cavalry Regiments created for security service in Poland." but the caption for the first photograph says: "SS Cavalry 1939". It looks like one of these years is wrong, but which? RASAM (talk) 18:45, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No the image shows an SS Cavalry unit in 1939, the SS Cavalry Brigade was formed in 1940. There were SS Cavalry units unbrigaded before 1940. --Jim Sweeney (talk) 19:19, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
