Railway Station at Kursk (Kopolev/Dugov/Triepinov)

Life for the average soldier in the Red Army is never easy, but it is a better life than for most Russians in the late-winter of 1933. You have a bed, steady rations, and place of security in a dangerous time. There are duties to perform, yes, and sometimes they are hazardous. They are the price you pay for what you have.

There are horrors enough in the Worker’s Paradise. The new collective farms have failed to provide as was promised, and famine stalks the land. A knock at the door might mean death in the gulag. In distant Moscow there are rumors of a coming purge of enemies, both real and imagined. And yet . . . there are worse things to be found at Machine Tractor Station Kharkov-37.

Railway Station at Kursk (Kopolev/Dugov/Triepinov)

Kursk Rail Station[/sup]


Major-Administrator Yuri Kopolev shivers and pulls his heavy winter coat closer for a moment, before remembering to keep it open. There were a few people huddled in front of the station, and he wanted to make sure his new comrades would see his TASS uniform. He had arrived her on a supply train from Moscow with an expedited passport, with orders to meet two others: Lieutenent-Electrician Dugov, and Captain-Technician Triepinov. He has become impatient for their arrival. They should leave early, and somehow make their way to the Red Army Depot, and onwards to the Station, hopefully before nightfall. The roads in the Worker's Paradise left something to be desired.
