After broadcasting of a TV series “Shtrafbat” (“Battalion of Military Offenders”) one can hardly meet a person who does not know about the existence of penalty battalions in the Red Army during the Great Patriotic War. Y.V.Rubtsov, the author of the book, does not approve of the artistic and civil views of E.Y.Volodarsky, the script writer, nor of these of N.N.Dostal, the film director. The prime goal of the author is to show the historical and lifelike truth about the penalized of the War.
