Valery Sablin: Difference between revisions

}}'''Valery Mikhailovich Sablin''' (Rus: Валерий Михайлович Саблин; born 1 January 1939) is a communist politician and leader of [[Buryatia]]. Whilst serving in Yagoda's [[Irkutsk]] he noticed that Yagoda's Regime was using the NKVD to silence resistance, and thus he launched his rebellion in the late 50s.

 

''Born in Leningrad amidst the New Years' celebrations of 1939, Valery Sablin was only a child when his family was evacuated eastwards with the shattered remnants of the Presidium, even as his father, a naval officer, sailed forth to meet his doom against the Kriegsmarine. This sacrifice was never lost on Sablin, who had grown up dreaming of the Union he had barely known, and of the Revolution his father's father had fought in. Despite having reservations with Yagoda's leadership, Sablin willingly enlisted into the army as a commissar still, not out of a sense of loyalty to Yagoda's totalitarian empire, but out of perhaps foolish hope that deep within the halls of the few ramshackle military academies that still stood, he would find answers to his questions. Was this really what those who came before him wanted? All he found was disappointment. What few books he could find were censored beyond measure, and he knew the NKVD watched his every step.''
