Dmitri Pavlovich Parsky ((ロシア語:Дмитрий Павлович Парский)) (17 (26) October, 1866 - 20 December, 1921) was a Russian general of the Imperial Russian Army during World War I, who fought on the Eastern Front. In 1893 he attended the General Staff Academy. In World War I, he commanded the 12th Army from 20 July to 9 September 1917 and the 3rd Army from 9 September 1917 to 8 November 1917. He was the first battle-experienced Tsarist General to offer his services to the Red Army,〔''From Tsarist General to Red Army Commander'' by Mikhail Bonch-Bruevich, translated by Vladimir Vezey, Progress Publishers, 1966〕 explaining his viewpoint thus :''"I am far from this Bolshevism you preach. But I am ready to work honourably not only with them, but with anyone, even the Devil and his disciples, if only to save Russia from German slavery."''〔''The Russian Civil War'' by Evan Mawdsley, p83〕 During the Russian Civil War, he first was commander of the Narva Front and later of the entire Northern Front. He died of typhus in 1921. ==Honours and awards== * Order of St. Stanislaus, 3rd class (1896); * Order of St. Anne 3rd class (1900); * Order of St. Stanislaus, 2nd class (1903); * Order of St. Anne, 2nd class with swords (1906); * Order of St. Vladimir, 4th class with swords and bow (1906); * Order of St. Vladimir, 3rd class (1909, 31 January 1910); * Order of St. Stanislaus, 1st class (6 December 1913) * Order of St. George, 4th class (2 June 1915) * Gold Sword for Bravery (1916) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dmitri Parsky」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
