Descrição:

One of the most brilliant, but practically unresearched, pages in the history of the Kontrrazvedka of the SRPU(m) was its operation
in the Makhnovist units of Wrangels Russian Army (the so-called
"White Makhnovists"). As is well known, from the end of the spring
of 1920, Wrangel's headquarters tried to secure Makhno's support
before the White advance out of Crimea, and White propaganda
spread the myth that such an alliance had already been established.
Some of the insurgents naively fell for this hoax; for others it was
simply convenient. But the result was that in the Russian army aux-
iliary units were formed under Makhno's name. For example, the
1* Insurgent Division of Volodin; and the regiments, brigades, and
detachments of Chaly, Ishchenko, Yatsenko, Savchenko, Grishin,
Prochan, Samko, Khmara, and Golik. Officially the staff of the In-

the following words: “The Shtarm issued directions to these detachments (to Volodin, Prochan, Savchenko, Ishchenko, Samko,
Chaloma, and Yatsenko) about ceasing military action against the
Red Army, informing them of our alliance and our advance against
Wrangel. I recall I wrote that they should not break off their peace-
able' relations with Wrangel for the time being, but be prepared to
strike him from the rear when ordered to do so by the Soviet."
These orders were delivered by a secret agent..
