Re: Leningrad Front KK Translation
I can't fully say this, but the letters to me might point to "mechanized." If so, there was a 48th Mechanized Brigade in 41st Army that I think was operating in the area between roughly Tver and Leningrad in '43. Maybe you can pull an order of battle and see if it is plausible.
"Mechanized" is pretty much by definition also infantry, so I could see a "48th Independent Mechanized Rifle Brigade." If it isn't that, then it's an honorific. But... I'm leaning towards "mechanized." |
