Ivanov, Grigorij Jakovlevich, Lieutenant-Colonel, Squadron Commander, 17th Air Army
While he and his (sadly incomplete) group are mentioned, directly and indirectly, on other threads, his group and his service deserves a full posting.
I have only partial tranalstions/summaries/precis of the research, so bear with me in cases of strained coherence. Ivanov, Grigory Yakovlevich, Lieutenant Colonel, born 1908 village of (Saratovka?), (Sepolitensky?) Raion, Smolenskaya Oblast. Member of CPSU since 1932, higher education, Russian. He was Russian, working class origin, no foreign languages. CPSU 1932 # 1,886,174. Sr Lt 4.11.3(9?)

Stationed in Rumania 28.6.45 to 1.4.50. Called up 28.8.33 as a machinist in Dnepropetrovsk Electro-Crane Factory "in the name of Lenin." August 1933 (he was 25!!!) Student at 9th School of Military Aviation for Pilots and Lieutenants at Rogan, Kharkov Military District 17.12.34 Pilot ("Pilot") Instructor at above 23.1.37 Pilot ("Letchnik"-- I have NO idea what DIFFERENCE the two terms convey) as above 20.8.39 Pilot (Letchnik) Instructor at Chugusky School of military Aviation, Chugus', Kharkov Mil Dist 3.10.39 Squadron Commander at above 1.2.42 "Vrid" ( = ?) Commander of a detachment at the same, but relocated (obviously!) to the city of Chimkent in "S.A." (this evades me at the moment) Mil Dist 24.9.42 Squadron Commander in 116th Fighter Aviation Regiment, 238th Ground Attack (Shturmovik) Aviation Division 21.3.43 Squadron Commander still in 116th Fighter Av Rgt but now in 295th Fighter Av Div, 3rd Air Army, No caucasus Front 30.3.43 Regimental Navigator of above 7.10.43 Deputy Commander of 295th Fighter Av Div "for V.S.S." ( = aerial gunnery, I think--see below) on 3rd Ukrainian Front March 1944 student at courses for regular Red Army aviation officers at Lipetsk (site of secret 1920s-30s cooperation with the Reichsheer) 30.4.45 Deputy Commander of 295th Fighter Av Div for "V.S.S" ( = aerial gunnery ?), only now in 17th Air Army 20.7.46 Commander for aerial gunnery, 288th Fighter Av Div 15.10.47 Deputy Regimental Commander, 866th Fighter Av Rgt, 288th Fighter Av Div, 17th Air Army 4.6.48 Commander for aerial gunnery, 288th Fighter Av Div 22.2.49 Commander for aerial gunnery (spelled out), 283rd Fighter Av Div, 34th Air Army 18.5.50 exactly the same 21.1.54 Deputy Staff Commander for air traffic control, 170th Guards Aviation Division, 34th Air Army 8.4.54 to the reserves per para 59 "A" "(for age)" Decorated as Deputy Staff Commander for Navigation Control Center, 170th Guards Fighter Aviation Division. Not working. So discharged "for age" (46) as Lt Colonel-- and what was a fighter pilot/aerial gunnery officer THEN supposed to DO? (hence 1957 "unemployment") Living at 4 Ulitsa No 11, City of Dnepropetrovsk, ........... ARC filled out 27 (July?) 195(7?) awards listed in the order top to bottom = OPW2 # 3,348 11.2.43 per 5th V.A. ... OPW 1 # 65,186 17.12.44 per 17th V.A. ...

I've shown the document for the "exotic Bulgarian", the Medal for the Patriotic War 1944-45, elsewhere, so I guess there's no reason in posting it again here? The group is fully documented, so, as usual, your wish is my commend (especially it is "mostly scanned", even if largely untranslated). |
