After the cataclysmic events of the First World War officially ended on the Western Front in 1918, the Democratic Western Powers were still faced with the fallout of the struggle for power in Russia. There was a very real chance that the Communist contagion would transfer across the borders of Russia to Eastern Europe, as it would do some two decades later. Viscount Edgar Vincent D'Abernon was head of the Interallied Mission to Poland and was eye-witness to the struggle in Poland that culminated in the battle for Warsaw that saw the red tide turned back."The 18th most decisive battle in history...Had the Battle of Warsaw ended with a Bolshevik victory, it would have been a turning point in the history of Europe; as there is no doubt that with the fall of Warsaw, Central Europe would have been left open to Communist propaganda and Soviet invasion.
