Grizodubova
Heroes of the Soviet Union Book Series
(August 16, 2025)
by Juan Fraile-Nuez
310 pages - paperback
$25
"This is one of the first books about the aircrews of the 101st AP DD, who flew during the Great Patriotic War to support the partisans in Ukraine, Belarus, and the occupied regions of the USSR. This regiment was commanded by Podpolkovnik Valentina Stepanovna Grizodubova, the very first woman to be awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. These talented and courageous pilots delivered news, weapons, ammunition, food, and medicine to the Soviet partisans, and evacuated children and the wounded in combat to the rear.
The book captivates with its wealth of reliable material and the truthful description of events and personalities about their selfless actions and difficult fates. It is based on the archives meticulously compiled by the regiment's chief of staff, Aleksandr Mikhailovich Verkhozin. However, only a sample of the entirety of the exploits accomplished by the personnel of this unit have been included in this volume."
