Newland clarifies an unfamiliar, often misunderstood aspect of the history of World War Two. The Cossacks who wore German uniforms saw their service not as treason to the motherland, but as an episode in the revolution of 1917, part of an ongoing struggle against Moscow and against Communism. Their reward was forced repatriation into Stalins Gulag at the hands of the Western powers in 1945. But if the Spanish Civil War produced its "premature anti-Fascists", recent events in the Soviet Union suggest the Cossacks of World War Two may someday be honoured as "premature nationalists". Their cause deserved better allies than the Nazis." Professor Denis Showalter
Synopsis
The Cossacks who wore German uniforms saw their service not as treason to the motherland, but as an episode in the revolution of 1917, part of an ongoing struggle against Moscow and against Communism. A Wehrmacht needing men and an SS hungry for power reinterpreted or ignored Hitler's racist ideology to form entire divisions of Cossack volunteers. German offices developed relationships to "their" Cossacks similar to those in the French and British colonial armies. The Cossacks responded by fighting effectively and reliably on the Russian Front and in the Balkans. Their reward was forced repatriation into Stalin's Gulag at the hands of the Western powers in 1945., This work describes story of the Cossacks who wore German uniforms and saw their service not as treason to the motherland, but as an episode in the revolution of 1917, part of an ongoing struggle against Moscow and against Communism., The Cossacks who wore German uniforms saw their service not as treason to the motherland, but as an episode in the revolution of 1917, part of an ongoing struggle against Moscow and against Communism.
