       Order of the Day no. 227 "ΟΥΤΕ Β&#
       919;ΜΑ ΠΙΣΩ"
       By: National Bolshevik Date: July 30, 2016, 9:08 am

       “Enemy throws to battle new forces and doesn’t encounter its
       heavy losses, crawls to into Soviet lands, capturing new
       regions, havocs and destroys our cities and villages, rapes and
       kills Soviet population… German occupant forces by all means
       want to take Kuban and Northern Caucasus rich in bread and oil…
       Units of South front led by scaremongers left Rostov and
       Novocherkassk without serious resistance and without orders from
       Moscow, they covered their colours with shame.
       "Population of our country loves and respects the Red Army, but
       now people are disappointed that the Red Army leaves our people
       to be enslaved by German oppressors and runs further to the
       east. Some not so smart people comfort themselves by
       conversations that we can run further to the east, because we
       have a lot of land, many people and we’ll always have plenty of
       bread. They use this to justify their infamous actions on the
       fronts.
       "… but further retreat to the east means to sentence to death
       our people and our Motherland, every bit of our land given to
       the enemy will enforce him and will weaken our defense, our
       Motherland.”
       "...The Supreme General Headquarters of the Red Army commands:
       1. Military councils of the fronts and first of all front
       commanders should:
       a) Unconditionally eliminate retreat moods in the troops and
       with a firm hand bar propaganda that we can and should retreat
       further east, and that such retreat will cause no harm;
       b) Unconditionally remove from their posts and send to the High
       Command for court martial those army commanders who have allowed
       unauthorized troop withdrawals from occupied positions, without
       the order of the Front command.
       c) Form within each Front from one up to three (depending on the
       situation) penal battalions (800 persons) where commanders and
       high commanders and appropriate commissars of all service arms
       who have been guilty of a breach of discipline due to cowardice
       or bewilderment will be sent, and put them on more difficult
       sectors of the front to give them an opportunity to redeem by
       blood their crimes against the Motherland.
       2. Military councils of armies and first of all army commanders
       should;
       a) Unconditionally remove from their offices corps and army
       commanders and commissars who have accepted troop withdrawals
       from occupied positions without the order of the army command,
       and route them to the military councils of the fronts for court
       martial;
       b) Form within the limits of each army 3 to 5 well-armed
       defensive squads (up to 200 persons in each), and put them
       directly behind unstable divisions and require them in case of
       panic and scattered withdrawals of elements of the divisions to
       shoot in place panic-mongers and cowards and thus help the
       honest soldiers of the division execute their duty to the
       Motherland;
       c) Form within the limits of each army up to ten (depending on
       the situation) penal companies (from 150 to 200 persons in each)
       where ordinary soldiers and low ranking commanders who have been
       guilty of a breach of discipline due to cowardice or
       bewilderment will be routed, and put them at difficult sectors
       of the army to give them an opportunity to redeem by blood their
       crimes against the Motherland.
       3. Commanders and commissars of corps and divisions should;
       a) Unconditionally remove from their posts commanders and
       commissars of regiments and battalions who have accepted
       unwarranted withdrawal of their troops without the order of the
       corps or division commander, take from them their orders and
       medals and route them to military councils of fronts for court
       martial;
       b) Render all help and support to the defensive squads of the
       army in their business of strengthening order and discipline in
       the units.
       This order is to be read in all companies, cavalry squadrons,
       batteries, squadrons, commands and headquarters."
