NIce! But I need a short reading lesson: I read in cyrilic "plokhotniuk", with the letter "ю" between the final "n" and "k" and you translate it with a "Y" in english. It is an effect of english transliteration or simply I misread? Last question: do...

Nice Star! Excellent citations! [hatt

The episode in the OPWII citation when the pilot transported tank crew personnel. Ever wondered how 2 seats bi-plane can carry more passengers?
This is how it was done. In containers under the wings.

And here is the cherry: the photograph of the "Sverdlov" monitor engine mechanics crew. CHEKMENEV must be one of them! The year the photo is taken is not clear, but it must be before 1939, I think. The petty officer in the middle must me CHEKMENEV himself! 1140552d1513114873-red-star-navy-...

One more interesting detail is that DOSAEVs OGIII citation is signed by two HSUs. The first one, the 629 rifle regiment Commander HSU Colonel KORTUNOV, Aleksey Kirillovich (1907–1973). He was actually a remarkable man. After the war he eventually became the first Head of the Ministry for Oil and Gas...
