The main victory of Russia in the First World War was unconditionally Brusilovsky breakthrough, this operation was widely covered in the Soviet Union, but the general himself was undeservedly forgotten for many years.
General from the cavalry A.A. Brusilov was one of the most talented generals of the Russian Imperial Army and soon after the February Revolution became the supreme commander of the Russian army. During the Civil War, he supported the young Soviet government and contributed to the military construction of Soviet Russia.
Brusilov began military service during the Russian-Turkish war of 1877-1878, then taught at the Officer Cavalry School, was one of the best riders in the Russian Imperial Army, and entered the First World War as the commander of the 8th Army. During the war years, the army fought on the southwestern front in Galicia and showed brilliant results, and Brusilov himself in 1916 became the commander in chief of the armies of the South-Western Front. By the February Revolution, the general reacted positively and took an active part in the democratization of the army and became supreme. In the Red Army, Brusilov was engaged in the preparation of cavalry, in 1920 he signed an appeal to Wrangel army military personnel with a call to end the struggle in 1923-1924. He was an inspector of the Cavalry of the Red Army, and then was a revolutionary consultation.
Among the Russian emigration, the attitude to Brusilov was far from unambiguous, he was accused of February, hypocrisy and betrayal. The former merits of the general sunk into oblivion ... And in Soviet Russia, until the very last day, he was surrounded by honor
