Book excerpt: HANDBOOK FOR INFANTRYMEN of the WORKERS and PEASANTS RED ARMY, VOLUME No.1, with 1938 Red Army Infantry Manual, Drill Positions, and The Duties of the Individual Soldier from The Infantry Combat Manual, 1942. by Igor Dobroff and Mark A. Sevigny, with English translation by Igor Dobroff, 2009. The R.K.K.A., The Workers and Peasants Red Army, was the army of the Soviet Union before and during the Second World War, a conflict known in the Soviet Union as the Great Patriotic War.This book is an English-language World War II re-enactor's and historian's field reference guide for Red Army Infantrymen.The manual is 95 pages long and includes over 30 drawings and diagrams from original Red Army manuals and is formatted to appear similar to WW2 Red Army manuals. The commands have been translated into English, but are also presented in their original Cyrillic and phonetic versions [to aid pronunciations] as well. Volume 1 of the Handbook for Infantrymen contains information on Red Army drill, rifle positions, marching, basic squad and platoon marching formations, and ceremonies. In this volume we have included detailed information and drawings on drill movements and formations as well as marching formations. The contents are translations and extrapolations from the 1938 Red Army Soldier's Manual, but with some material from the 1947 Soldier's Manual that reflect practices developed during the Great Patriotic War. We also have chapters relating to soldiers' duties, translated from the 1942 Infantry Combat Manual of the R.K.K.A., as well as some miscellaneous subjects from other R.K.K.A. sources. A brief synopsis of the contents are listed below. [ NOTE: Although this volume contains a page of basic combat commands and explanations of how to crawl and run, but it does not contain information on Red Army combat formations or tactics. For WW2 Red Army combat instructions and practices we highly recommend Charles Sharp's SOVIET INFANTRY TACTICS IN WORLD WAR II [1944]. Every serious Red Army re-enactor and historian should own a copy of Sharp's book in any case.] Chapters of this manual: I. DUTIES OF SOLDIERS AND COMMANDERS II.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the History of Communism written by S. A. Smith and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 834 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of Communism on the twentieth century was massive, equal to that of the two world wars. Until the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, historians knew relatively little about the secretive world of communist states and parties. Since then, the opening of state, party, and diplomatic archives of the former Eastern Bloc has released a flood of new documentation. The thirty-five essays in this Handbook, written by an international team of scholars, draw on this new material to offer a global history of communism in the twentieth century. In contrast to many histories that concentrate on the Soviet Union, The Oxford Handbook of the History of Communism is genuinely global in its coverage, paying particular attention to the Chinese Revolution. It is 'global', too, in the sense that the essays seek to integrate history 'from above' and 'from below', to trace the complex mediations between state and society, and to explore the social and cultural as well as the political and economic realities that shaped the lives of citizens fated to live under communist rule. The essays reflect on the similarities and differences between communist states in order to situate them in their socio-political and cultural contexts and to capture their changing nature over time. Where appropriate, they also reflect on how the fortunes of international communism were shaped by the wider economic, political, and cultural forces of the capitalist world. The Handbook provides an informative introduction for those new to the field and a comprehensive overview of the current state of scholarship for those seeking to deepen their understanding.
