In Russian. Short description: F.D. Sverdlov. Jewish Generals of the Armed Forces of the USSR. Jerusalem, 1993. The decisive contribution to the defeat of Nazi Germany, which unleashed the Second World War, was made by the Armed Forces of the Soviet Union. A large role in this belonged to their highest command staff - Soviet generals and admirals. Therefore, the study of their biographies is of considerable historical interest. In the ranks of the Soviet army in World War II, about 450 thousand Jews fought in all branches of the military and in all positions and ranks - from privates to generals. They fought alongside the rest of the citizens of the Soviet Union, but more than that, they also knew that they were fighting an enemy who was destroying their people, who was waging war against the Jews. The combination of Soviet and Jewish patriotism greatly increased the consciousness of the Jews in the struggle against the German invaders. In this book, we will deal only with Jewish generals and admirals. The table of contents of the book simultaneously serves as a list of all Jewish generals and admirals of the Soviet Armed Forces. The appendices to the book contain lists of Jewish generals and admirals who held the most responsible positions: commanders of fronts (military districts), commanders of armies (flotillas), chiefs of staffs of fronts (fleets, districts), chiefs of staffs of frmies (flotillas), commanders of corps and divisions.
