Weapons' and Eg ipment
4. The:;only weapons and equipment which I over had occasion to see
were:
a.
b.
My personal weapon: 7.62 mm. Model 1944.. canine,;
Weapon for training purposes: 7.62 mm. Model 1944-1
945
c.
Degtyarev MG.
Weapon for training purposes: PPSh SMGsate of ma
nufacture
unknown .
d.
Personal equipment:.. Gas mask iodel and date,of manufacture
unknown)'
Cargo pack
Entrenching shovel
Cartridge pouch (for 15-20 rounds)
e. Weapons and equipment for squads, platoons, companies, battalions
and regiment were given above 5e.e paragraphs 1- V.
f. All of the above-mentioned weapons,5ee paragraphs 1-,V 'were
standard and were fully described in reference manuals.
I have never seen, heard of, or read about any new type weapons,
vehicles-por equipment. I have never seen or heard of any semi-
automatic rifles.
6. The carbine is a very dependable weapon. The ammunition was,.always
in very good condition, and I never heard of ruptured cartridges,
even when there was dirt in the carbine chamber. The Soviet sniper
rifle (7.62 mm. carbine with sniper scope) was also a very efficient
weapon and the scope maintained its zero. 25X1
25X1
7. Fifty per cent of the soldiers were good riflemen;' five men out of
ten were marksmen, and one or two out of ten were experts.
8. Even though the-average.-soldier had two.hoursrof bayonet drill per
..week,.the Soviet soldier was not a very good bayonet fighter. The
average soldier in" `the Soviet Army knew four or, 'at ''the most, five
bayonet drills. The soldiers were trained to yell- and make much
noise during bayonet fighting, in order to intimidate the opponent.
The fixed bayonet on the late model carbine was not a hindrance
because it was collapsible.
The Soviets engaged wide and oblique-targets with direct fire in
short. bursts, and deep targets with cross-fire in long bursts from
emplaced machine guns. I believe that the Soviets never used
indirect fire in employing emplaced machine guns.. I do not believe.
that such fire is possible. I have no information on how the Soviets
employed their machine guns on final protective lines; under
conditions of poor visibility, targets were engaged according to
sound.
10. The Soviet rifleman carried the.'ollowing items during combat:
Cargo pack with personal items, , rations, and blanket
Entrenching shovel
Overcoat (rolled across the shoulders)
Seventy-five rounds of ammunition (20 rounds in the ammunition
pouch, the balance in the pack)
Weapon (carbine, PPSh or Nagant revolver)
The total weight of this equipment was 32 kg.

SECRET/SECURITY INFORMATION
11. At"s o'time was the 57 mm. artillery to be farther back than 50 M.
from the infantry on the front lines.
12. ?I.hea'd that the Soviet Army had special winter equipment and
olothing for Aretic,regions. I. however, have never worn or seen
any such clothing or equipment.
13. The Soviet Army had no special preventive measures against trench
foot; the usual instructions were to change the foot wrapping cloths,
which were worn instead of socks, as often as practicable, and to
wash and massage the feet whenever possible.
25X114. 'I never heard of the "Voice of
America". I believe that none of my fellow soldiers ever had
occasion to listen to'a private radio.
Unit SuQ ly and Maintenance
15.. Each soldier in the Soviet Army received the following items of
clothing and equipment:
One uniform (for work, same as Class "A" -- issued for six
months)
One Class "A" uhiform, (for parades, inspections, etc. -- iss'aed
for six months)
One pair of boots (issued for eight months)
One set of underwear (changed every 10 days, when the soldier
was required to take a bath)
Two pairs of foot wrapping cloths,, worn instead of socks
(heavy cotton for winter, light cotton for summer)
One pair of heavy cotton gloves (issued only in winter'-- exchanged
in summer)
One winter cap, or a summer overseas cap
One overcoat (issued for two years)
Two belts (issued for two years)
Cargo pack
Canteen and cover ) issued for the entire period of service
Entrenching tool
Ammunition pouch
Carbine (or other weapon)
Seventy-five rounds of ammunition (kept in the weapons room)
All repairs on all items of clothing and equipment (except boots)
had to be made by the individual soldier. All equipment and weapons
were inspected daily by platoon leaders.
16.. The unit of fire for my weapon was-75 rounds of ammunition.
unable to give any additional information on this subject.
17. Companies and battalions did not have kitchens or food supply depots.
In the garrison, all food was prepared by the regimental kitchen
and food supplies were picked up from the division food supply depot
by a regimental truck. In the field, food was prepared by
battalion kitchens and food supplies were picked up from the regi-
mental kitchen by a battalion truck. To my knowledge, the regiment
kept a food supply for three to four weeks, with the exception of'
meat and bread,which were picked up from the division every three
or four days. All food. supplies were brought by regimental trucks
once a month. I have no further details.
18. No supplies or repair facilities were taken out into the field in
peacetime. I imagine that,in case of an emergency, all-
supplies-would be moved by truck,

19. I have no information on limitations on expenditure of ammunition
or fuel in peacetime; to my knowledge, there were no limitations
in wartime.
20. I believe that all equipment I I was in daily use. 25X1
or storage facilities of the 45th Oda. Mecz. Regt.,25X1
see Diagram I never heard of any of the equipment being
stored in winter or at any other time. The heavy weapons and
vehicles (tanks) were parked in hangars and garages on wooden blocks,
but I believe that all were ready for combat.
