5. Yakov Ilich Vernikov

7. Yakov Davidovich Smushkevich (Twice HSU)
8. Laventy Zacharovich Kotliar
9. Vladimir Konstantinovich Konovalov

11. Semyon Moyseyevich Kriboshain
12. Yakov Gregorovich Kraizer
13. Symon Davidovich Kremer
14. Boris Mironovich Rivkin
15. Mark Ivanovich Shwelb
16. Gregory Michailov Shtern


All the above were GENERALS during GPW. I am POSITIVE that there are more Jewish generals who were HSU, but promoted to General after the GPW.

that's not exactly correct. Most of them became generals after GPW. The same time Smushkevich and Shtern became HSU before GPW and were executed in fall of 1941.
