Happy Anniversary!
A friend posted this on Facebook:
On this day in 1683, the forces of the Holy League, led by Polish King Jan Sobieski III and his Winged Hussar lancers, mounted one of the largest cavalry charges in history to defeat the combined Ottoman forces of Grand Vizier Merzifonlu Kara Mustafa Pasha, relieve the siege of Vienna, and save Europe from an existential threat. Upon achieving victory Sobieski is said to have declared "Veni, vici, Deus vicit."
Na zdrowie!
