Abstract

The article analyses the collection of transcripts of correspondence between servicemen, who took part in the Crimea Offensive of the Red Army of Workers and Peasants in spring of 1944, resulting in complete liberation of Crimea from Nazi invasion. The transcripts were first introduced into scientific circulation. The transcripts are unique, since they were taken shortly after the battle by the Committee of the USSR Academy of Sciences headed by the future Academician Isaac Minz. The documents contain abundant information on unknown combat episodes, facts of the soldiers’ heroism and sacrifice, as well as they perfectly reflect the “human dimension” of war.
