This report would not have been possible without the many young men who shared their, often traumatic, experiences in Russia’s armed forces with us. Thank you for your courage to be so frank with us. We also extend our warmest gratitude to the phenomenal staff of the Association of Soldiers’ Mothers of Cheliabinsk Province, the Soldiers’ Mothers Committee in Novosibirsk, the Committee for the Protection of the Rights of Military Servicemen in Novokuznetsk, the Moscow-based Union of Committees of Soldiers' Mothers of Russia, the Soldiers' Mothers of St. Petersburg, and the Right of the Mother in Volgograd and Uriupinsk, who generously shared their unique knowledge of Russia’s armed forces; helped us organize dozens of interviews with conscripts, officials, and others; and gave us access to their, often extensive, archives. | | | | --- | --- | | [<<previous](https://www.hrw.org/legacy/reports/2003/russia1103/5.htm)<br>\| <br>[index](https://www.hrw.org/legacy/reports/2003/russia1103/index.htm) | November 2003 | |
