Fyodor Danilovich Vorobyov (1904-1992) was a colonel and, from 1939, an officer in the Military History Department of the General Staff of the Red Army. He was one of the first researchers into the history of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. His official duties allowed him to witness many of the war's key events. As an officer in the General Staff, he served on the Volkhov Front in 1941 and early 1942, and then, as a military historian, he studied the events of the Battle of Stalingrad, the Battle of Kursk, the liberation of Ukraine, the Battle of Berlin, and others directly in the field. The collected operational material, intelligence data, and captured documents were immediately analyzed, summarized, and published as military-strategic essays, the target audience of which was the senior and highest command staff of the Red Army. F.D. Vorobyov is the author of a number of essays cited in this book, and also a co-author of fundamental works: “The Defense of Sevastopol” (Moscow, 1943), “The Battle of Stalingrad” (Moscow, 1944), “Ten Crushing Blows” (Moscow, 1945), “The Battle of Kursk” in two books (Moscow, 1946-1947), “The Berlin Operation of 1945” (Moscow, 1950), etc.
