After the revolution

The army of Imperial Russia ceased to exist after the Bolsheviks came to power. The new government headed for the elimination of all former institutions of power. The founders of Marxism called for the abolition of the army after the socialist revolution. Instead, there should be a common armament of the people.

This happened right after February Revolution. The Red Guard began to form. It was a voluntary armed detachment. They were formed by party bodies directly in the field. The Red Guards became the main force of the Bolsheviks in preparing and carrying out an armed coup in the fall of 1917, as well as in the first period of the Civil War.

The Red Guard had no centralized command. Their creation and disbandment was carried out in accordance with the decisions of local party and Soviet bodies. The Red Guards took part in the suppression a large number armed conflicts, including the uprising of the junkers, the Czechoslovak corps, etc.

However, due to the fact that the young state was surrounded by enemies, it was necessary to create a new regular army. In the autumn of 1917, there were approximately 200 thousand people in the ranks of the Red Guard. 30 thousand were in Moscow and Petrograd. At the beginning of 1918, by decision of the Council of People's Commissars, the Red Army was created and the Red Guard detachments gradually began to join it. AT different regions this process was different. In the last autumn of 1919, Turkestan Red Guards entered the spacecraft.

The emergence of the Red Army

When Civil War covered almost the entire country, the new government was faced with the task of forming the Armed Forces. The then existing Red Guard could not wage war for several reasons. Therefore, on January 15, according to the old style, the Red Army was created, and on the 29th, the RKKF. In the spring of 1918, Vseobuch appeared, dealing with the military training of workers.

The first divisions of the spacecraft were created by local councils. As a result, different types of detachments were formed, which included the most diverse segments of the population. Naturally, the combat readiness of the volunteer spacecraft was low, the commanders were chosen. Despite this, parts of the spacecraft managed to achieve some success.

In April, the election of commanders was canceled, they began to be appointed. Since there were not enough competent specialists, officers of the imperial army had to be invited. But, since their political views were doubtful, military commissars soon appeared, who supervised the activities of military specialists, educated personnel in the spirit of communism, etc.

Attempts to create KA only on a voluntary basis failed. In the units, there was weak discipline, disgusting fighting efficiency. Declassed elements often joined the ranks of the KA, the purpose of which was exclusively profit. In addition, there were not as many volunteers as required.

In July, a law on compulsory military service, as a result, the number of armed forces has increased significantly. Trotsky introduced unity of command in the army, general form clothes. Was introduced the death penalty. In early autumn, the Revolutionary Military Council was formed, which led the Armed Forces. L. Trotsky was appointed head of the new structure. Very drastic measures were taken. There was nothing of the kind in either the tsarist or the white armies.

Red Army in WWII

06/22/1941 is a sad date for our country. Early in the morning, the Nazis invaded Soviet territory. During the first months, the spacecraft was forced to retreat and lost hundreds of thousands of servicemen. It is believed that this was caused by the unpreparedness for the attack of the Nazis. Already in the first days, general mobilization was announced. At first, our army retreated, losing people and territories.

The first success was achieved by the spacecraft in the battle of Moscow. But it was not possible to build on the success, our army continued to retreat. Measures were taken to stop the retreat. Soldiers fleeing in panic were shot. This measure was called "not a step back." Commissars received a new name - political officers. In 1943, the ranks returned by analogy with the pre-revolutionary ones.

The real turning point occurred at the end of 1942, when the spacecraft managed to encircle and block the Nazi group in Stalingrad. It was finally destroyed on 02/02/1943. Success was consolidated as a result of a successful operation on Kursk Bulge. After that, the KA launched a counteroffensive. One after another, new territories were liberated.

By the summer of 1944, our Armed Forces were on the state border. The position of Nazi Germany was constantly deteriorating. Its allies left the coalition one by one, refusing to fight. In addition, at the beginning of the summer of 1944, England and the USA opened a 2nd front. The USSR liberated one country after another and in April 1945 approached Berlin. The assault on this city ended with the surrender of the Wehrmacht troops. It was signed on the night of May 9, 1945.

During the years of the Second World War, more than 29.5 million people were called up to the spacecraft. Prior to that, its number was over 4.8 million. The Poles also fought on the side of the Soviet Union. In 1943, we created the Polish infantry division named after. T. Kosciuszko. By the spring of 1945, the number of Polish troops reached 200,000 servicemen.

At the beginning of the Second World War, the spacecraft was not well equipped. There were few vehicles. The Soviet Air Force at first was significantly inferior to the Luftwaffe. In addition, most of them were destroyed almost immediately. In addition, a huge part of the country's military industry was located in the territories occupied by the enemy. But the people who worked in the rear did everything to increase military production, and soon the situation changed. A new, advanced technique was created, for example, the famous Katyusha. This mortar has become very popular.

After the end of the Second World War, demobilization was announced. Of the 11 million people, 8 million went to the reserve. Many veterans were subsequently awarded the medal "50 Years of the USSR Armed Forces."
