Tchernetzov's Partisans
Tchernetzov's Partisans was an independent Don Cossacks military force commissioned under the act of ataman Alexey Kaledin on November 7, 1917, in the opening stages of Russian Civil War. The 600-man regiment-size unit was formed of Don Cossack officers and students of the Novocherkassk.[1] However, many Bolsheviks considered Vasily Tchernetzov and his men brutal counter-revolutionaries, who were not entitled to protection when captured, as was the case with other prisoners of war. Colonel Tchernetzov's death at the hands of the Bolsheviks was explored in Mikhail Sholokhov's novel And Quiet Flows the Don.
