Jumpmaster Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share #46 Posted November 5, 2018 Some details on the group to Kostenevich Andrei Nikolaevich. Potential for there to be some shenanigans based on the orders being out of SN order, and that the last 3 appear added but odd after a legit entry. The interesting news is from a friend on GMIC forum, the recipient was a commissar of a partisan detachment. This is a translation from the site: 1st Anti-Fascist Brigade On August 16, 1943, the so-called "Russian National People's Army", organized by the Nazi invaders from prisoners of war, went over to the partisans. She received the name of the 1st Anti-Fascist Brigade. On August 25, its formation ended, as a result of which 5 rifle detachments, a company of machine gunners, a communications company, an artillery battery, and a bomb squad were created. In September, an educational reserve battalion (9th detachment) was formed from citizens of the Logoisk, Pleschenitsky and Smolevichsky districts. In March 1944, his personnel were transferred to the brigade detachments. In January 1944, the 10th squad was formed. In April - May 1944, the brigade suffered heavy losses (1026 people) in heavy battles with punitive agents, 5 squadrons (5, 6, 7, 8, 10th) and a communications company ceased to exist. As a result of the re-formation, 4 detachments were organized in the brigade. Commissioner brigade I.M. Timchuk in January 1944 was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union. The brigade operated in the Borisov, Logoisk, Pleschenitsky districts of Minsk, Kurenenets, Plissky, Postavy - Vileyka, Lepel, Ushachsky - Vitebsk regions. It united with the units of the Red Army on July 4, 1944 as part of 4 detachments with a total of 422 partisans. Brigade commanders: Vladimir Gil-Rodionov, August 1943 - May 1944, died Timchyk Ivan Matveyevich, May 1944 - July 1944 Commissioners: Kostenevich Andrei Nikolaevich, September 1943, and. Timchyk Ivan Matveyevich, October 1943 - May 1944 Evmenenko, Ivan Maximovich, May 1944 - Jul 1944 Chief of staff: Ponomarenko Boris Mikhailovich, January 1944 - July 1944 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumpmaster Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share #47 Posted November 5, 2018 My favorite so far. Grabbed this couple years ago off eBay far what I considered a steal. Well less than sum of the parts.
