Within the walls of the Archives of the Russian Ministry of Defense reside the stories of the bravery, the passion, the strength and sacrifice of the Soviet people during the Second World War. For the first time in history, No Deed Forgotten opens the doors of the Archives to the English reader, allowing for better appreciation of the great struggle of the Soviet people against their powerful foes from 1941 to 1945.

Replete with hundreds of color photographs of the original awards and documents, this book is a must-have for every military historian as well as those who are interested in some of the fiercest fighting in history WW2 on the Eastern Front.
No Deed Forgotten Soviet Military Awards and Decorations The Story Behind the Honor eBook David Schwind
In the introduction to No Deed Forgotten the author makes clear that his work is a tribute to the soldiers that served the USSR during WW2. It overviews the gallantry award citations from his collection as they were translated so the actions and merits of the soldiers are presented in the patriotic views and thoughts of the time, which makes for interesting reading. As he also states it is not a book to read in one sitting as the citations can become somewhat repetitive. It is best read in short bursts and in this he achieves his aim. It is a good work in that the many soldiers covered have their actions and bravery shown to the world and not consigned to an archive.Product details
