Summary/Abstract |
One of the most sordid and obscure aspects of the Soviet-German War, 1941-1945, involved the repression of Red Army senior officers, who, in Stalin's eyes, failed to fulfill their duties to the Motherland. This article, the second part in a multi-part series, exploits hitherto secret archival documents to 'raise the veil of secrecy' from this tragic aspect of the war, which took its greatest toll of senior Red Army military leaders during the disastrous Barbarossa campaign in the summer and fall of 1941.
