  • Rifle Divisions on 22Nd June 1941 There Were 15 Rifle Divisions in the Leningrad Military District
    The Actual Strength of all Soviet Land Combat Units in a Deployed (D) State on 22nd June 1941 Part IV 6 The Leningrad Military District (Northern Front from 24th June 1941) In this section we will focus on the actual manpower and equipment strength of the land combat units deployed in the Leningrad Military District on 22nd June 1941. We will examine the strength of the individual combat units and reconcile this with the actual strength in the whole of the military district. Rifle Divisions On 22nd June 1941 there were 15 rifle divisions in the Leningrad Military District. On 1st June 1941 the average personnel strength in these divisions was 11 985 men, or 83% of the wartime authorised TOE.1 In terms of personnel this made the rifle divisions in this district the strongest of any in the Western Military Districts when the Germans attacked. Three of the 15 rifle divisions (the 237th, 177th and 191st) were new and in the process of forming. The average strength of the 12 older established divisions was over 13 100 men, which made them close to full strength. Perhaps the Soviets maintained these divisions at higher than average strength due to the recent hostilities with Finland. Table Len MD Divs 1 shows the actual strength of the rifle divisions in the Leningrad Military District on 22nd June 1941. Most of the rifle divisions were well established divisions with six formed before 1939, five formed in 1939, one in 1940 and three in 1941. The average rifle division in the Leningrad Military District on 22nd June 1941 had an inventory containing: up to or over 100% of their authorised MGs and mortars, around 93% of their authorised AT guns, 73-89% of their authorised light artillery and infantry guns (76mm), 78-102% of their authorised medium to heavy artillery, and all their authorised heavy AA guns.

During my visits in Russia to research in the former Soviet archives it was not possible to see the origi- nal plans for operations. It was pointed out to me that the "ground level vegetation" is still the same in the border areas of Russia and Finland. This, of course, was a friendly way of saying to me that the legislation still forbids of giving those materials for researchers.

  • Zapad” Exercise, May 30–June 9, 1977
    Mastny-Byrne 2005/04/27 13:12 Page 406 Document No. 81: Marshal Ogarkov Analysis of the “Zapad” Exercise, May 30–June 9, 1977 ——————————————————————————————————————————— The 1977 “Zapad” (“West”) maneuvers, which took place in East Germany, were intended to assess the Warsaw Pact’s ability to counteract the marked progress in NATO’s combat readiness. The Western alliance had recently completed the compa- rable “Wintex” maneuvers, the largest ever, and according to an East German report, the results showed the Pact falling short of its objective. Adding to the significance of “Zapad,” the scenario assumed that NATO would ini- tiate hostilities under the guise of maneuvers (such as Wintex). This theme appears with greater frequency in the late 1970s. Warsaw Pact intelligence was well aware of NATO’s actual plans, but that did not entirely quell uneasiness over the presence of so many troops on maneuvers in the immediate vicinity. In his closing remarks following the exercise, Nikolai V. Ogarkov, chief of the Soviet General Staff, is fairly candid about the shortcomings revealed by “Zapad”, as is Marshal Dmitrii Ustinov, the minister of defense and the exercise’s commander. Ustinov notes that the Pact needs to acquire completely new (conventional) weapons systems to counter the West’s growing supe- riority in advanced technology. During the 1970s, Soviet bloc analysts realized that the gap in military technology continued to widen and might never be bridged. As always, the “Zapad” exercise ended on an upbeat note with the East eventually launching an offensive deep into the FRG and winning the war, despite Ogarkov’s acknowledgement that not a single division had fulfilled its task.

    U. S. ARMY SHOULDER SLEEVE INSIGNIA AUTHORIZED SINCE 1989 (Revised June 2013) I invite my friends to use this document freely and share with other collectors. It was created to identify SSI authorized by TIOH after the publication of Richard W. Smith’s book “Shoulder Sleeve Insignia of the U.S. Army 1946 - 1989” so I have selected 1 January 1990 as the starting point for this document. I have not addressed redesignations of pre-1990 SSIs, but the 1106th and 1109th Signal Brigades are included in this document because their new brigade number designation can cause confusion. Collectors are finding several of the new patches with size and color variations. The only variations listed in this document are those that are documented TIOH changes of the original design of the SSI. I want to thank COL Mike Jorgensen for meticulously editing and adding to this document. Enjoy, LTC John Monis (Ret) AIR DEFENSE ARTILLERY BRIGADE 174th 263rd 357th Det AVIATION BRIGADE 16th (Combat) 63rd 77th 78th Troop Cmd 110th 128th 166th 185th 244th 449th 1 BATTLEFIELD SURVEILLANCE BRIGADE 71st 142nd 219th 297th 560th CAVALRY BRIGADE 21st 316th CHEMICAL BRIGADE 3rd 48th 404th 455th CIVIL AFFAIRS BRIGADE 95th 304th 308th 321st 322nd 350th Cmd 2 ENGINEER BRIGADE *1st *2nd *36th Grp/ Bde 111th 168th 176th 225th 372nd 555th Grp/ Bde 926th * The insignia design of the 1st, 2nd & 36th Engineer Brigade were original used during World War II.

  • German Radio Propaganda in the Soviet Union: a War of Words
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: GERMAN RADIO PROPAGANDA IN THE SOVIET UNION: A WAR OF WORDS Christopher J. Butsavage, Master of Arts, 2012 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jeffrey Herf Department of History The focus of this study is the content of Nazi radio propaganda to and concerning the Soviet Union. The radio was a new and innovative means for the Nazi regime to directly communicate with the masses of illiterate civilians in the Soviet Union on a daily basis. This study finds that as the war in the East progressed, there was an increasingly stark dichotomy between the positive messages found within German radio propaganda and the harsh reality of the Nazi occupation. It seems almost as though there was a morbid inverse correlation between the amount of violence the Germans inflicted upon civilians (including forcibly sending them to work in Germany) and the amount of radio propaganda exhorting these same civilian populations to join the Nazi cause. It is also important to note that every German radio broadcast to Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union was not propaganda. In fact, by 1943, a great deal of news items broadcast on German radio in occupied territory were administrative in nature. Announcements such as local curfews, blackouts, conscription and mobilization decrees, and warnings were frequently broadcast.
