Soviet A diver and his wife

[Ed_Haynes]

This group has been presented, in brief, before. See: http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=6981 As I am now hosting it, I am putting it up in more (if duplicate) detail.

The group is to two peope, husband and wife. As it came to me, it was pretty intermingled. As I have sorted it apart (properly, I hope), I have drawn some inferences that I hope are corect, but I may need to resort these two groups. While it is documented (though not 100%) and (partially) researched, there are no translations, so the linguistic ice beneath my feet gets very thin here and I need help.

Now, his service record. Some of the xeroxes are very poor, but I'll do my best.

More to come, when I have the time to sort things out. The file seems incomplete -- though without Russian I can't be sure -- shall try to bribe my departmental colleague to help me decipher what I have. I do sense that some things and missing and I will be approaching the Research Master on these.

Meanwhile, his better half:
