$The main task of light artillery (cal. 75 to 100 mm) was support of infantry units and suppression of enemy$
$artillery.  Every infantry division had its own, horse drawn artillery regiment, consisting of three squadrons,$
$12 guns each. Two squadrons were usually equipped with Schneider mod.97 call.75mm guns, the third$
$one with Skoda mod. 14/19 cal. 100 mm howitzers.  Guns were intended to fight enemy artillery's$
$emplacements, whereas howitzers were to provide the support for infantry. Fire was co-ordinated by observers$
$directing fire by field telephones.  Unfortunately, communication network was very often damaged by enemy$
$artillery fire, bombardments and saboteurs.  Facing enemy tanks, artillery units had to act as anti-tank guns,$
$shooting at enemy vehicles directly.  Many successful actions were recorded.  One of the most famous was$
$the defence of Warsaw, where Schneider guns hidden behind building corners were knocking-out tanks left$
$without infantry cover.$
