This book by T.D. Medvedev, a research fellow at the St. Petersburg Institute of History of the Russian Academy of Sciences and a candidate of historical sciences, examines a little-studied aspect of the history of the Great Patriotic War: the formation, manning, and service and combat activities of the NKVD fighter battalions. An example of the effective Soviet wartime mobilization model, unlike the militia, they "survived" the entire war. The author analyzes the organization, social composition, and combat methods of the fighter battalions in various regions of the USSR, paying special attention to key stages in their history: their formation in the first days of the war; service and combat activities in the rear zone and their use in the battle formations of the Red Army in 1941-1942; and service in territory liberated from the enemy, including in the final stages of the war – in the western regions of the USSR.
