He studied Bloody Sunday, a sequence of events that took place in Bydgoszcz (German: Bromberg), a Polish city with a sizable German minority, between 3 and 4 September 1939, immediately after the German invasion of Poland, supporting the "traditional Polish POV" until later, when he cancelled his results.
