GEORGI K. ZHUKOV
(1896 - 1974) Soviet field marshal, perhaps the greatest general of World War II, he survived crushing poverty and Stalin's purges to command the Russian armies at the monumental battles of Moscow and Kursk, and in the taking of Berlin. A.E.S. penned upon a 4pp. 4to. D.S., an attestation as to the character, etc. of an officer of the political department of the 63rd Infantry Corps. Zhukov writes: "I agree with the attestation and the conclusion. Commander of the of the Ural Military District, Marshal of the Soviet Union Georgy Zhukov. 1/XII 49". Very good.
