Maxim Vasilyevich[c] Rehbinder (Russian: Максим Васильевич Ребиндер, romanized: Maksim Vasil'yevich Rebinder; 1730 – 22 February 1804) was an associate of Suvorov.
During the Russo-Turkish wars, he was in the Azov Musketeer Regiment and became famous for his fearlessness; in 1787, in the rank of colonel, he was in the hostilities behind the Kuban and on 1 October[d] 1787 was the first to reach the enemy camp; Sheikh Mansur, having lost many troops, was forced to retreat, and the Russian troops in less than two weeks, cleared from the rebellious Tatars the whole country from the mouth of the Laba River up the Kuban to the snowy mountains.
At the time of Suvorov's entry into Switzerland Rehbinder marched at the head of Andrei Rosenberg's column, sent to bypass Gudin, occupying the mountain Saint-Gotthard; he attacked his enemy, who ran to his reserve, located in the Reuss Valley.
When the Russian troops' reaching Altdorf, Suvorov decided to turn toward Mutten valley and from there to Graubünden.
Suvorov, appointing them to this dangerous place, exclaimed: "Mikhailo, you in front — facing the enemy, and to you, Maksim, — glory!".
