The 28th Army was a field army of the Red Army and the Soviet Ground Forces, formed three times in 1941-42 and active during the postwar period for many years in the Belorussian Military District. == Initial formation == The army was formed first in June 1941 on the basis of the Arkhangelsk Military District. It included the 30th and 33rd Rifle Corps, 69th Motorised Division, artillery and several other units. The Army Commander was Lieutenant General Vladimir Kachalov (previously commander of the Arkhangelsk Military District), member of the Military Council army Brigadier Commissioner Basil T. Kolesnikov, Chief of Staff army Major General Paul G. Egorov. On 14 July 1941, the order creating the Reserve Front gave the 28th Army's composition as nine divisions, one gun, one howitzer, and four corps artillery regiments, and four anti-tank artillery regiments.〔STAVKA Order 003334, Collection of Combat Documents of the Great Patriotic War, ('SBDVOV'), Moscow, Voenizdat, 1958(?), Issue 37, p.13, cited in David Glantz, Stumbling Colossus, p.215〕 It participated in the Battle of Smolensk. Encircled the environment, on 10 August the army headquarters was disbanded, and emerged from an environment of given parts to form Reserve Front. General Kachalov was killed by artillery fire on 4 August 1941 during the breakout of the encirclement. He was buried in the village of Stodolische, Pochinkovsky District, Smolensk Oblast.〔(Cooperative database «Memorial» ), via Russian wikipedia, Ruwiki accessed August 2014.〕 Lacking accurate information regarding his death, Stalin allowed him to be named as a traitor and sentenced to death in absentia in accordance with Order № 270. Only on December 23, 1953, well after the war ended, did the Supreme Court overturn the order. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「28th Army (Soviet Union)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
