Should one read him?<br />C.Carrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03253067048338629585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1634061767475661894.post-72885212259172221582017-01-23T00:39:23.421-08:002017-01-23T00:39:23.421-08:00He was trained by the NKVD in the Soviet Union 193...He was trained by the NKVD in the Soviet Union 1939-41, saw active service in the military against the Germans. When he was being recommended for promotion to Major in a unit run by the NKVD in Poland post war, explicit mention was made that Bauman run a unit that liquidated many "bandits".
