Hi there, first thread here.
One question I have wondered was if Frunze lived past 1925?
Would it have made any difference in history is say he lived until 1937?
How would this affect the Soviet Union?
They have to name the Soviet Military Academy something else, after Frunze was unmasked as always having worked for the restoration of capitalism in the Soviet Union, an agent of foreign intelligence services, and an associate of Trotsky, and sentenced to receive the supreme measure of social self-defense.
Stalin didn't like threats to his position.
In the last days of the Soviet Union, a writer for
National Review toured the country; he was invited to the academy. His inviter, a senior Soviet officer, said, "Let's go to the Bronstein".
So much for Robert Heinlein's assertion that no one in the Soviet Union knew who Trotsky (ne Bronstein) was. Perhaps no one would admit this to a somewhat forward American.
