Disbanded Favour Links Regiment 1937

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and poignant print captures a significant moment in Russian history from 1937. The image depicts a female army regiment being disbanded due to their alleged links with the out-of-favour OGPU leader, Jagoda. This event sheds light on the turbulent political climate of the time, where loyalty to certain leaders could have severe consequences. The women in this regiment were likely dedicated soldiers who believed in serving their country, only to have their careers abruptly ended because of political affiliations. The disbandment of this regiment serves as a stark reminder of how quickly fortunes can change in times of political upheaval. The photograph itself is a testament to the bravery and sacrifice of these women, whose stories may have been lost to history if not for images like this one. It serves as a visual record of an important chapter in Russian military history that should not be forgotten. Overall, this print is not just a historical document but also a powerful reminder of the human cost of political power struggles. It prompts viewers to reflect on the complexities and injustices that can arise when politics intersect with military service.
