We decided to devote our next essay to an analysis of the reliability documentary materials from funds Central Archive of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation O irretrievable losses personnel Red Army during the Great Patriotic War.
As the experience of working in the reading room and card indexes of this archive shows, documentary materials recording the irretrievable losses of privates, sergeants (junior commanders), political and officers The Red Army is neither complete nor reliable. And often there is no information about such losses at all. We are talking, first of all, about personalized lists of irretrievable losses. military units and formations of the Red Army, burial books of evacuation hospitals and other materials of 1941 - 1942, from the following funds: 33 (inventory 11458), 56 (inventory 12220), 58 (inventory 18001, 18003, 18004, 818884, 977520, 977521, 977522 , A -64233, A-83627), p-9526 (inventory 6), etc.
This state of affairs is explained by the fact that lists of irretrievable losses (according to form No. 2-a) of this period of the Great Patriotic War were in most cases compiled at the level of division headquarters and with a large gap in time between the fact mass death military personnel or their missing persons and their inclusion in such lists. , the names and patronymics of the dead and missing in these lists are often confused, the names settlements from the home addresses of privates and juniors commanding staff they are indicated illegibly, and sometimes with errors. So, for example, Alexander could be written down by Alexey, the village of Zmeevka was indicated as Zmeevskaya or even Zmeyka (or was completely replaced by the name of the village council), etc.
This is especially true for the so-called DNO, people’s militia divisions, formed hastily in 1941 from poorly trained volunteers, civilians, including older people, representatives of the urban intelligentsia, most of whom had absolutely no idea about military service.
By the way, from such lists containing factual errors, incorrect information about the losses of the Red Army during the Great Patriotic War migrated to the well-known regional Books of Memory. Apparently, in the compilation of these books, published in the early to mid-1990s, unverified information provided by military commissariats was also used different levels. So, junior political instructor“model” of 1942, due to the similarity of the buttonholes, was recorded in one of these books by a lieutenant, etc.
The incompleteness of such materials is primarily due to those huge losses personnel and equipment carried by the Red Army at the first stage of the Great Patriotic War. Due to the difficult situation in which the active army was located, not all dead or missing military personnel were included in the lists of irretrievable losses at that time. The confusion in their names and names of settlements (home addresses) is explained by the fact that, in the absence of any documentary evidence, names and names were added to the lists based on the testimony of colleagues who knew little or simply did not have time to recognize their dead or missing lead comrades. In addition, the basis for inclusion in the lists of irretrievable losses could also be written requests from relatives of military personnel who had not heard from them for a long time.
For example, summer losses of personnel of the 204th Rifle Division (64th Army, later 78th guards division), who took part in the bloody battles in the Stalingrad direction at the end of July - the first half of September 1942 (in particular, in railway station Abganerovo and in the working village of Beketovka) were issued only in November of the same year. The accounting of division personnel losses took place in the absence of accounting and reporting materials (orders, various statements, soldiers' and officers' books, etc.) lost at the headquarters of military units that found themselves in territory occupied by the enemy.
At the beginning of its existence, when personnel arrived at the theater of operations (July 25, 1942, in the Active Army since July 28, 1942), the 204th Infantry Division consisted of 12,126 people. And by September 15, 1942, its personnel had been reduced to 1,512 people (this figure was recorded in the division’s form compiled after the war). The difference is obvious - 10,614 people. But the Act, signed on January 3, 1943 by the commander of the 204th Infantry Division, his deputy for political affairs, the chief of staff of the division and a number of other authorized persons, recognized as irretrievably lost not 10,614, but 7,860 personnel of this division who died and went missing during the period from July 28 to September 10, 1942. Apparently, this was the only figure the command was able to determine immediately after the end of the most difficult and bloody Battle of Stalingrad.
The mentioned Act specifically stated that the information necessary for compiling lists of irretrievable losses (provided to the Central Bureau for personal accounting of losses of personnel of the Active Army) was obtained by interviewing commanders and Red Army soldiers from the old division, as well as on the basis of letters from relatives and various kinds statements for retired personnel. And it was possible to obtain such information only for 4553 people (out of 7860!!!). That is, almost half of the fighters recognized as irretrievably retired were identified not on the basis of documents, but on testimony. The same act officially recognized the impossibility of establishing “by any (as in the text!) means” the fate of 3,307 privates and junior commanding officers of this division.
And with such an “approximate” calculation of losses, we emphasize that 4266 people from among those who left the 204th Infantry Division in the period from July 28 to September 15, 1942 GENERALLY “remained behind the scenes” and were not included in the lists of losses. Let us recall that the division initially had 12,126 people, 10,614 left according to the lists, and the division command recognized 7,860 people from its previous personnel as having left.
In conclusion, let us give as an example several special cases of “inconsistencies” between actual party cases and the information that is present in the lists of irretrievable losses of the Red Army.
Thus, Private S. from the Tambov region, according to the lists provided by the Directorate of the 266th Infantry Division, is considered missing on October 16, 1941. At the same time, the captured Zuzangskarte (prisoner of war registration card) is stored in the same TsAMO, indicating his capture on October 8, 1941 . and death on February 28, 1945 in Stalag 345 (Stalag - concentration camp, from abbr. German Stammlager, full name Mannschaftsstamm und Straflager).
Red Army soldier D., native Kursk region, according to TsAMO, goes missing in action on May 17, 1942 near the village of Leushino, Starorussky district (at that time Leningrad region). And according to the filtration materials stored in the archives of the FSB Directorate of the Kursk Region, in that battle he was captured and subsequently “was kept in prisoner of war camps in Dobindorg, Granau, Bremenburg, worked for different jobs"and was released Soviet troops April 24, 1945
Another native of the Tambov region, Red Army soldier S-v, according to the headquarters of the 159th Infantry Division, was killed on February 15, 1944 in the Vitebsk region. In reality, this man was seriously maimed by a shell fragment in one of the battles near the city of Vyazma Smolensk region, and in the period from August 11, 1943 to July 1, 1944, he was treated in a hospital, after which he was discharged from the army and assigned disability I groups. And there are countless such examples. By the way, S.’s case ended with his presentation to the Order of the Patriotic War War I degrees.
The conclusion from all of the above is more than obvious. Establishing the fate of the Red Army military personnel who died and went missing during the Great Patriotic War can be extremely difficult due to the fact that in a number of cases, accounting documents were lost during the war, the lists of irretrievable losses are incomplete or contain errors for the above reasons .
The same question is asked.

The report did not indicate the exact number of all those buried in mass graves, including the unnamed. The lists include several military personnel who died while clearing the territory in April 1943, that is, when burial work was carried out, and were buried in mass graves along with those who died in battles in November 1942-March 1943 th.
In fact, the lists of this report (posted in the OBD) contain personal data 1729 fighters and commanders.
I would like to draw your attention to one important point– sheets with lists from the reports under consideration are filled out on both sides. After being deposited in the archive, the sheets were sewn into separate files (including reports of other formations and units) and numbered (at the top in pencil). So the number of pages should be doubled more quantity sheets, if all pages in the report are completed. But if filling out a new list (there are six such lists in this report) started from a new sheet, then filling out the previous list could end on the very first page of the last sheet and last page will then be unfilled and, as a result, not scanned and not posted in the OBD. It may happen that even in the middle of the list, pages may not be completed (and, accordingly, not scanned into the ODB) due to the fact that separate sheets were filled out by different people.
The lists in question (from 15 to 19) are numbered in the file from sheets 77 to 166 ( title page has number 76). That is, this report contains 90 sheets with lists of names. Total 180 pages. The OBD contains 174 pages. No 6 pages. The absence of specific pages can be easily identified by the holes left by the hole punch when stitching the case. Odd pages (if you number them) have a hole on the left, even pages on the right. But it may be more difficult to determine whether the missing pages in the OBD were filled in or not. So, for example, there is no second page on sheet 79. The first page ends with person number 49 (Moisey Fedorovich Galkov). The first page of sheet 80 begins with the person numbered 50 (Karimov Rakhim). There are no visible contradictions in the numbering, and, most likely, the second page of the 79th sheet was blank and therefore not scanned. There is no second page on sheet 82. This can be explained by the fact that the first page of sheet 82 is the last page of list No. 14. It is on this page, as at the end of each list, that there is the signature of the head of the staffing department of the 20th Army headquarters, Colonel Omelchenko. For the same reason, most likely, there is no second page on sheet 99. The first page of this sheet is the last page of list No. 20. There is no second page on sheet 109. The first page of this sheet ends with personality number 200 (Nikita Ignatovich Bublikov). The first page of sheet 110 begins with number 201 (below it is listed Stepan Sergeevich Eremeev). Both sheets were written by the same hand and refer to soldiers buried in the same grave No. 55. There are also no contradictions in the order of burial in the same grave. Bublikov is buried 7th from the south in the 1st row, Eremeev is 9th in the same row. The absence of the 8th only means that no items with records identifying him were found on him, and he was buried nameless. Thus, most likely the second page of sheet 109 is simply not filled out. Sheet 110 again has no second page. But it's more complicated here. The first page of this sheet ends with the person number 210 (Tulenerinov Tursenba), and the first page of the 111th sheet begins with number 221, under which is Georgiy Andreevich Fursheev, buried in another grave. 11 personalities remain in question in this case. They are not in the OBD. Perhaps they don’t exist in real life archival document, and the second page is not filled in, and this is simply a mistake by the numberer. But it is possible that data on 11 people was included in the real report, but the page was not scanned. Another option is that 11 people were in the primary document, which was the source of data for compiling the document(s) in question, but were not included in the report when rewritten. And there should have been such primary documents, but more on that below. There is no second page on sheet 115. This can be explained by the fact that the first page of sheet 115 is the last page of list No. 16, and the second page of this sheet is not filled out and, accordingly, has not been scanned for OBD. It is on this page, as at the end of each list, that there is the signature of the head of the staffing department of the headquarters of the 20th Army, Colonel Omelchenko.
The division of the total number of buried military personnel on the lists into command and rank and file was not carried out due to the fact that the lists contain personalities without data relating to their position and rank. Conventionally, we can assume that the ratio of the number of buried middle-command personnel (officers) to the number of buried Red Army soldiers and junior commanders (soldiers, sergeants and foremen) is equal to 1:15.
List No. 14 (sheets 77-82);
List No. 19 (sheets 83-92);
List No. 20 (sheets 93-99);
List No. 16 (sheets 100-115);
List No. 15 (sheets 116-128);
List No. 18 (sheets 129-143);
List No. 17 (sheets 144-166).
After quite long work With these lists, the following is noteworthy:
The order of the lists is chaotic;
Filling out report sheets from one list is done either by hand in different handwritings (with each separate sheet always filled out by one person), or on a typewriter;
There are obvious errors in the numbering of personalities;
There is confusion, expressed in the attribution of data from one fighter to another, next higher or lower in the list;
Six scanned pages of listings are missing from the OBD;
Some grave numbers are entered after filling out lists with personal data on buried soldiers and commanders (for example, on sheet 83);
Some sheets with lists of military personnel buried in the same grave were mixed up not when the file was stitched together, but when compiling the lists (for example, the list of soldiers of the 326th Infantry Division buried in the area of the village of Kholm-Berezuisky in grave No. 21 is contained on sheets 126-127, written from hands, and on printed sheets 152-153).
All of the above suggests that all these lists posted in the OBD were compiled at the army headquarters itself and are secondary. They are only lists of primary documents relating to reburial and compiled directly by the funeral teams. It is possible that the primary documents were the acts of reburial (if one could find these primary documents compiled during the reburial itself...). But it is possible that after the reports with the lists, now posted in the Observatory, were compiled, the primary documents were destroyed. Alternatively, it is possible that transfer acts may be stored somewhere for the further care of mass graves local authorities authorities (for example, village councils). Lists of those buried in these mass graves could also be attached to the acts. Maybe it is indicated there total number buried, including unknown ones.
List No. 14 was compiled based on documents found on the battlefield. The numbers of the graves, as well as their locations, are not indicated in such lists. It is possible that such lists include the data of fighters and commanders whose bodies have not been found. But, in our opinion, the documents were collected from those being buried, and then handed over by those who did not carry out the burial according to the established rules. In this case, the graves on the ground were not marked or numbered, and lists of those buried were not compiled. This could occur during burials carried out local residents, who began to return at this time to the ashes. But this is just a guess.
List No. 14 contains data for 96 people. In fact, in list No. 14 there are not 96 personalities, but 95 (after number 5 comes number 7).
In list No. 19, 198 soldiers and commanders are listed as buried and the details of them are actually recorded.
In list No. 20, 123 people are listed as buried and the data is actually recorded.
In list No. 16, the last person number is 308. In fact, the data of 288 people is recorded (number 145 in the list is followed by number 156, and number 210 is followed by number 221).
In the list No. 15 are listed as buried and the data of 251 people are actually recorded. Upon reconciliation, it turned out that fighter Nikolai Pavlovich Krilosov (number 155 on page 123) is actually alive, which was noted in the list. At the same time, someone was buried in this grave third from the south in the third row.
List No. 18 lists 298 people buried. The data of 297 people was actually recorded. The numbering gets confused when number 240 is followed by number 242.
In list No. 17, 477 people are listed as buried and the data is actually recorded.
In total, in this report, six lists actually include 1729 Human. The number of people buried anonymously in numbered graves is unknown.

According to the report, the remains of 170 military personnel (4 commanding officers, 166 private and junior commanding officers) were buried and identified on the battlefield. In fact, the list posted in the OBD contains data on 169 military personnel.
The report refers only to those who were identified, that is, those who were able to find any documents. The report did not indicate the exact number of all those buried in mass graves, including unmarked ones.
The numbering is broken on sheet 72 (after number 56 comes number 58). It is possible that the data of some fighter was lost when rewriting the lists.

List No. 3 is placed on 5 sheets (sheets 97-101).
Sheet 97 does not have a scanned second page. This can be explained by the fact that the second page of the sheet is not completed. On sheet 97 there is a list of military personnel belonging to the average command staff (all 6 people stated in the report). Below, at the end of the list, is the signature of the head of the staffing department of the headquarters of the 20th Army, Colonel Omelchenko. The list of rank-and-file personnel begins on the first page of sheet 98.

In any case, there is no information about the graves in such lists.List No. 4 is placed on 4 sheets (sheets 131-135).
Sheet 135 has one, first page scanned and posted in the ODB. Apparently the list ends on this page, and the second page does not contain any entries. Sheet 134 was incorrectly filed in the file. A failure in the numbering of personalities occurred at serial number 64 (there are two of them).

According to the report, remains were identified on the battlefield during burial102 military personnel. Their names are included in list 7. In fact, on the second page of sheet 59 there was a mistake in the numbering - the number 96 was entered twice. At the same time, Nikolai Pavlovich Kuznetsov, born in 1921, was recorded twice in the list of those buried in the same grave No. 3 in the Zherebtsovo area. Thus, the list consists of personal data on 102 Human.
In addition, the report contains a list of 149 military personnel (8 senior military personnel, 141 private and junior military personnel), whose documents were found on the battlefield.

The report contains a list of irretrievable losses of soldiers and commanders of the 20th Army, who died in the battles waged by the army from the end of November 1942, and were buried only in April 1943, after the end of hostilities. The report was compiled by the staffing, organization and logistics department of the headquarters of the 20th Army, signed by its chief and sent under outgoing number 0579 to the central loss accounting bureau of the Glavupraform of the Red Army on May 20, 1943. The report was received by the central loss accounting bureau on May 25 with incoming number 20038.
According to the report, the remains of 360 military personnel were buried and identified on the battlefield (16 military personnel, 344 private and junior military personnel), and documents of 108 military personnel were found (2 military personnel, 106 private and junior military personnel).
The report refers only to those who were identified, that is, those who were able to find any documents. The report did not indicate the exact number of all those buried in mass graves, including unmarked ones.
The lists in the report are in the following order:
List No. 9 (sheets 79-80);
List No. 12 (sheets 81-84).
On the second page of sheet 84 there is the signature of the head of the staffing department of the 20th Army headquarters, Colonel Omelchenko, which indicates that this is the end of list No. 12.
The first sheet of list No. 9 is also marked with the Latin number I. The first sheet of list No. 12 is marked with the number II.
On sheet 85 there are personalities from number 41 to number 60 (20 people). The list includes those buried in graves No. 1 and No. 2 in the Zherebtsovo area.
Sheet 86 begins with number 1. The sheet is titled as list No. 13. The sheet contains information about 19 buried military personnel.
Sheet 87 is clearly a continuation of list No. 13, starting with person number 20. This sheet carries 18 people (numbers 20-37). On the second page of this sheet there is no signature of the head of the staffing department of the 20th Army headquarters, which ends all other lists of those buried in the spring of 43rd.
The next sheet 88 is headed as list No. 10 and begins with person number 1. Although the report itself states that list No. 10 is a list of documents found on the battlefield, the list itself contains indications of the grave numbers and burial places of soldiers and commanders. On sheet 88 there is information about 22 buried military personnel (numbers 1-22).
The next sheet 89 begins with person 38 and ends with 45 (8 people). At the bottom of the first page is the signature of the deputy head of the staffing department of the 20th Army headquarters (the signature, however, does not correspond to the transcript). The second page of this sheet is not in the OBD. Most likely, this sheet is the last sheet of the list.
Sheet 90 begins with person 82 and ends with 100 (19 people).
Sheet 91 begins with person 81 and ends with 97 (17 people). At the end of the second page of this sheet is the signature of the head of the staffing department of the 20th Army headquarters (this means that this sheet ends another list). The list includes those buried in grave No. 2 in the Zherebtsovo area.
Sheet 92 begins with person 43 and ends with 63 (21 people). Moreover, this is a list of documents found.
Sheet 93 begins with person 61 and ends with 80 (20 people). Sheet 93 was clearly filed incorrectly in the file (upside down). The list includes those buried in grave No. 2 in the Zherebtsovo area.
On sheet 94 there is again a list of found documents, which contains personalities with numbers 64-84, with an error in the assignment of two numbers 65 (22 people).
Sheet 95 contains a list of found documents with personalities with numbers 22-42 (21 people). Moreover, sheet 95 is clearly filed incorrectly (upside down).
Sheet 96 contains a list of found documents with personalities with numbers 85-109 (25 people).
Sheet 97 is headed as list No. 11 and contains information about documents found on the battlefield, personalities with numbers 1-21 (21 people).
Sheet 98 with lists of those buried in numbered graves begins with number 23 and ends with number 42 (20 people). The list on sheets 99, 100 is a continuation of the list on sheet 98 and contains personalities with numbers 43-81 (39 people).
For sheet 101, only the first page was scanned, which contains personalities with numbers 101-109 (9 people). At the bottom of the page is the signature of the head of the staffing department of the 20th Army headquarters. This is the last page of the list.
Sheets 102, 103 contain lists of documents found on the battlefield, with serial numbers 110-137 (28 people). The last sheet 103 has one page scanned, at the bottom of which is the signature of the head of the staffing department of the 20th Army headquarters.
Thus, the remaining lists in the report are arranged in the following order:
List No. 10 (sheets 88, 98, 99, 100, 90, 101);
List No. 11 (sheets 97, 95, ?, 92, 94, 102, 103);
List No. 13 (sheets 86, 87, 89);
List No. 9 contains personal data of 40 buried military personnel.
List No. 10 contains personal data of 109 buried military personnel.
List No. 11 contains the data of 138 military personnel. This is precisely a list of documents found on the battlefield, and not list No. 10, as indicated in the report.
List No. 12 contains personal data of 83 buried military personnel. The last number on the list is 81, but the numbering is broken by two numbers 29 and two numbers 56.
List No. 13 contains personal data of 45 buried military personnel.
The last sheet of list No. 13 is also marked with the Latin numeral IV.
The first sheet of list No. 10 is also marked with the Latin numeral V.
The first sheet of list No. 11 is also marked with the Latin numeral VII.
But it seems that the report contains another list on sheets 85, 93, 91. This is a list of military personnel buried in graves No. 1 (three personnel in total) and No. 2 in the Zherebtsovo area. Moreover, in the list there are no personalities with numbers 1-40 (grave No. 1?). In total, 57 military personnel are included on the sheets of this list available in the OBD. This list is marked with the Latin numeral III. Noteworthy is the absence of list No. 14. Maybe this is it.
In total, in this report, in five (six?) lists, there are personal data on 472 person.
Thus, in the reports discussed above from the headquarters of the 20th Army, posted in the OBD, the names were established at the burial 2950 soldiers and commanders of the Red Army. It must be taken into account that, perhaps, some of the names were lost at some stage. In the report itself there were repetitions of surnames. For example, Vasily Ivanovich Ivanov is recorded twice in the list of those buried in grave No. 112.
These lists from the reports of the headquarters of the 20th Army are supplemented by reports from the Sychevsky and Zubtsovsky RVK.
Report from Sychevsky RVC with incoming number 80602Enclosed in the report are lists of military personnel buried in the spring of 1943 in graves on the territory where battles took place from November 1942 to March 1943. To analyze this report, we have divided the lists contained in the appendix into parts. The lists were compiled in ordinary student notebooks. We do not know whether they were compiled directly during the work of burying corpses, or were later copied by hand from the original source.
The first appendix is a personal list of the corpses of commanders and soldiers of the Red Army buried in the Petrakovsky village council, village. Maloe Kropotovo by the forces of the Pyzinsky village council. 19
The list is compiled on ten separate sheets, apparently torn out in advance from school notebook in the box. Records were kept on both sides of the notebook sheet. On last sheet the entries filled only half of one of the pages. At the bottom of the list is the signature of the chairman of the village council and the secretary. The list was signed on March 31, 1943. Thus, the list takes up 19 pages. There are 180 names on the list. It is interesting that although the list of names was compiled, most likely, on the basis of documents found on the military personnel, it does not contain the names of the units in which the deceased served, only their position, year of birth, RVK of conscription, and the address of relatives. But this information is in a duplicate list, about which we'll talk below.
