  • the claim for the German casualties caused by the division during Case Blue (destruction of all of the infantry and reconnaissance battalions of the Großdeutschland division, presumably) seems very high, and they weren't mechanised infantry (ie panzergrenadier), they were motorised at this point. Without German records to compare, this seems extraordinary. I would definitely attribute this in-text to Ubushaev and include who he is. ie historian etc. This is likely to be scrutinised to a greater extent at ACR or FA.
Added "according to Russian historian..". I actually mixed up mechanized with motorized, my bad. I will change it across the article.--Catlemur (talk) 14:47, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • rank for Vladimir Homutnikov? redlink?
Added rank. According to Russian WP Homutnikov was Frunze educated and led a secret Soviet mission to Tibet in the 1920s. So he stands out compared to the other commanders.--Catlemur (talk) 10:33, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Source does not specify.--Catlemur (talk) 09:29, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "the division was incorporated into the 4th Guards Cavalry Corps" but wasn't it already?
The columns located in the Northern Caucasus were, however those at Astrakhan became part of the 28th Army. When the division was reformed all of the divisions personnel came under the 4th Guards Cavalry Corps' control.--Catlemur (talk) 18:34, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
