Get in touch with history.

Learn time-tested skills and tactics.

Long before the era of tactical night sights, UAVs, and infra-red scopes, humanity fought its battles during the day and during the night. This project  aims to bring to the Western Reader priceless information on the night-fighting tactics and skills developed by the Red Army during what may have been, for the Soviets, the hardest year of the Second World War, condensed by Red Army command into a book – The Soldier and Squad in Night Combat.

We require a small sum of money to fund the translation of the book – first published by the Soviet Union's Voenizdat in 1942 – into English and preparing it for publication with DiLernia Publishing. The book is of interest for those in interest in military history, small-unit tactics or personal preparedness.

 

The translator, Boris Karpa, has previously translated into English books such as Vadim Shutikov's "The Entrenching Tool – A Lecture Course", and the Soviet manual, "Destroy the Enemy in Hand-to-Hand Combat", now available on Amazon Kindle.
