Research Question on Soviet Gulags.

[PlaceOfBayonets]

Would it be possible to research the Commandants of every Soviet Gulag/labor camp from 1925 to 1935? Or is this information lost in time?

The NKVD kept detailed records of everything ....
Somewhere there will be details, probably by camp, and not a set list of Camp commandants.

Try these for starters ...

Thanks for the Links! So far I been digging around I found this most interesting charactor who started out as an inmate but who became part of the secret Police. He devised the eat as you work method that tied food rations to production by labor brigades.
