The book reveals unknown pages of the activities of deputies of the Supreme Council of the Kyrgyz SSR of the first convocation (elected in 1938) – participation in the Great Patriotic War. It is based on a scientific study of previously unexplored archival and other materials. The collection reveals the combat path of 54 people's representatives and describes examples of their dedication and courage on the battle fronts, including the Battle of Kursk.
In the study, the author spoke about the fate of some front-line deputies who were on the lists of missing persons for many years.
«For example, two members of the Supreme Soviet of the Kirghiz SSR died during the Battle of Kursk and were buried in the Belgorod region. That is why the presentation of the book was organized jointly with Belgorod State University», – said Sumarokov.
Sumarokov’s colleagues from Belgorod took part in the presentation of the publication, assisting the author in searching for missing Kyrgyzstanis online.
