Alexander Pylcyn
Alexander Vasilevich Pylcyn (born November 18, 1923) was a Soviet Commander during the Great Patriotic War. Pylcyn commanded the 8th Independent Penal Battalion. During his experiences in the Soviet Army, he was awarded the Order of the Red Banner and the Order of the Red Star. These were both highly recognized medals in the Soviet Union.
==8th Independent Penal Battalion==
The 8th Independent Penal Battalion was part of the 11th Guards Army. It was made up of disgraced soldiers and officers, dangerous prisoners of war, and political enemies. These people were bought from throughout the Soviet Union to join the Battalion. The disgraced soldiers came from the front line. If the company Commissar observed soldiers making defeatist comments, or willingly surrendering territory, he could either; mark them up for a summary execution, or, force them to join a Penal Battalion. Although the soldier got a second chance at life, sometimes being in a Penal Battalion was a fate worse than death. The prisoners of war were mostly German prisoners captured by the Soviets. Generally many of these prisoners had lost the will to fight, and were bullied into Penal Battalions by Soviet generals and commissars. The few political prisoners that came into the Battalion were from the Gulag in Siberia. The Battalion favoured fighting in difficult terrain areas.
