| Summary/Abstract |
This paper refutes the widely circulated myths and speculation about the early period of the Great Patriotic War, such as the Red Army dramatically weakened by Stalin's purges, intelligence reports ignored, the troops belatedly brought on high alert, etc. The authors show that the stubborn resistance of the Soviet troops frustrated every single objective of the German troops under the Barbarossa plan.

| Summary/Abstract |
This paper debunks attempts to belittle the combat mastery of the Red Army warriors and the military art of Soviet Army leaders, and to denigrate their activities in Germany. It shows that the Red Army surpassed Wehrmacht not only in terms of fighting skills, but also in terms of humanity toward civilians.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article is based on little-known sources and unpublished documents and traces the fates of some White Army veterans, who during WWII served in the German Army, holding a rank of sonderführer. Some of them were evacuated to Gallipoli from Crimea in November 1920 (gallipoliytsy). The topic of Nazi administration attitude toward the use of Russian emigrants on the front is also touched upon. Special attention is given to the biographies of Russian emigrant interpreters in the 9th Army of the Wehrmacht. It is concluded that the final aims and motivation of Nazis and White émigrés were different. Realization of that contradiction helps the researcher to understand why a part of Russian military emigration had chosen collaboration and joined Hitler's 'crusade against Bolshevism'.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article analyses the development and failure of a plan by the Special Operations Executive (SOE) to use a small-scale mutiny by German troops in Greece in 1944 to engender a widespread uprising within the Reichsarbeitsdienst and the ranks of non-German troops serving in the Wehrmacht. Through an analysis of this operation, codenamed 'Kitchenmaid', an assessment will be made of the capabilities and motivations of SOE's Greek section (Force 133); the problem of its cooperation with Greek communist guerrillas in relation to British foreign policy towards Greece; and the strategic and political value of 'Kitchenmaid'.
