Headquarters of the Reserve Armies of the Republic

Штаба Запасной Армий Республики

During the Russian Civil War reserve armies were developed by the Red Army. Each Soviet republic had a military commissariat in charge of troops within its constituency. In September 1919, the headquarters of the Reserve Army of the Republic moved from Simbirsk to Kazan' and thereafter, posters in Kazan' were printed by at least 15 organizations and local authorities.
