At the same time kudos to all of you with the ability and patience to go for it.

It is certainly like the polar bear in a blizzard puzzle :) But I think it's possible to hit the mark eventually with good guesses in context. For instance, Fedorchuk was a really good guess from Auke. Historically, it would work perfectly. In the end, the signature I found (consistent with other examples from Fedorchuk) disproves it. Close though!
Phillip, do you have a list of MGB/KGB generals? Looking through that would help a lot. :)
