NKGB/NKVD Participants In The Great Purge List. - leaftree - 02-11-2017
Came across this article and was wondering if anyone had bounced the names they have from NKVD awards off of it.

Quote:The result is the first comprehensive survey of the NKVD men responsible for carrying out Stalin’s “Great Terror” of 1937 and 1938, in which about 1.5 million people were arrested and 700,000 shot. While it is not the first study into the senior leadership of the NKVD, this is the first time that everyone – from the investigators to the executioners – has been identified. There are just over 40,000 names on the list.

List of names.
The first one I looked for was a hit. Kiev MKSH. Probably a couple more will pop up....

Interestingly, out of the 41,668 names only 732 are women - and we've already come across one of them!
