Vladimir Borisov

Vladimir Borisovich Borisov (Russian: Владимир Борисович Борисов; 15 July 1902 – 30 June 1941) was a Red Army major general.

Transferred to the 1st Chuguyev Regiment to serve as a platoon commander in June, he fought against the Armed Forces of South Russia on the Southern Front.

[1][2] In June 1921 Borisov was sent to study in a tactics group at the Military Pedagogical Institute, but did not graduate because he was expelled due to illness.

The chief of the 1st department, Colonel Leonid Sandalov, assessed Borisov as an "energetic and enterprising commander" who possessed "great capacity for work".

In late June the 3rd and 2nd Panzer Groups broke through the Western Front defenses on the flanks of the corps, encircling the 3rd, 10th, and 13th Armies in a pocket west of Minsk.
