This unique document - the autograph of Nikolai Nikolaevich
Ogloblinsky was sent to me by Andrey Vladimirovich Khvalsky. He
sought him out in the archive of his uncle, Mikhail Stepanovich
Baadzhi, a naval sailor who served in the Pacific Fleet as navigator
of a ship connection, a specialist in deviation, during the war. After
the war, he graduated from the Academy of the General Staff. The
last years of his life spent in Pushkin, worked in a military
research institute.
