    You might be referring to 30 Military Mission set up between Churchill and Stalin? I too would like more information on this topic. Purportedly, my grandfather, Thomas William Murray, signals specialist and new to the Intelligence Corps was assigned to this mission.

    Thanks in advance

    And this one, early in War of Air Operations out of Lake Gryasayna and Lake Lakhta, message mentions Archangel but I “think” these operations are over the Black Sea area.

    Yes, they were in several locations including Moscow. Hitler’s Operation Barbarossa was underway at the time. I am keen on finding the names of those from Intelligence Corps who were assigned to the Mission in July 1941
