List of NKVD-Units

I need a list of all NKVD's Operational Forces and Border Rgt.s 19941-1945.

The more Info, the better.

I've learnt that it's very hard to get all theinfo to ctreate a complete list of all NKVD-Rifle, -Cavallary, -mechanized, -Border Guard,- railway, -Security and Escort Regiments and Divisions.

Amazingly everything is known on Waffen-SS, but very little on this units.

Any help is welcome,

Cheers,

Thanks. The OMSBON-link and the French 22-6-41 OOB was of some use.

But the main bulk of NKVD fighting forces were built after 1941, and little is known on those regiments.

Cheers,

 

AndyW,

I´ll try to see more later on with the key words you gave. But if there´s more like troop names , generals or such names etc you can give, those might help alot.

Just trying to learn on this part as well...

Sounds like a book to get for this purpose:

Charles C. Sharp's "Soviet Order of Battle - World War II.
