The Convicts' Army: A Legacy of Violence

The convicts' army was a unique and horrifying creation of the Soviet regime. In the aftermath of World War II, as the Soviet Union extended its control over Eastern Europe, it faced a dilemma: how to deal with the vast number of prisoners and displaced persons in its custody.

The solution devised was both ingenious and cruel. The Soviets converted these prisoners into soldiers, forcing them to fight in the vanguard of the conquering Red Army. These soldiers, hardened by years of imprisonment and devoid of any sense of loyalty or discipline, perpetrated some of the most heinous crimes of the war.

A Trail of Devastation

The path of the convicts' army was marked by a relentless wave of violence and destruction. From Poland to Hungary, Romania to Czechoslovakia, they left behind a trail of shattered lives and broken communities.

They engaged in mass arrests, torture, and executions, targeting civilians suspected of any form of opposition or resistance to Soviet rule. Entire villages were burned to the ground, people were forcibly deported, and countless families were torn apart.

Beyond Violence: Plunder and Depravity

The atrocities committed by the convicts' army extended far beyond violence. They looted and pillaged on an unprecedented scale, stripping communities of their material possessions and cultural heritage.

Churches were desecrated, art and valuables were plundered, and entire industries were dismantled and shipped back to the Soviet Union. The economic and cultural devastation these soldiers inflicted left a lasting mark on the occupied territories.
