“Georgievsky Knight, Red Divisional Commander, victim of the “Great Terror” - Elisavetsky, Sergei Kokin

While Kamchatka social networks are filled with videos of pink salmon scattered along country roads and comments on them like “What a disgrace! The common population has nowhere to get fish, and you scatter it along the roads,” real amateur fishermen (both the process and the salmon itself) do not waste time. At their service are 17 sites for sport and recreational fishing, where you can catch fish, breathe fresh air, and generally get involved with nature.

We asked the acting head of the North-Eastern branch of the Federal State Budgetary Institution “Glavrybvod” Dmitry SHMIDT to tell us in detail about how sport and recreational fishing is organized in Kamchatka this year, and about how the process of salmon hatchery reproduction is going on the peninsula.

- Dmitry Yuryevich, how this year could amateurs purchase vouchers giving them the right to go fishing?

The process of purchasing vouchers (licenses) for amateur and sport fishing with us is as simple and convenient as possible. We sold vouchers to citizens to catch the only species of salmon - Chinook salmon - directly at the recreational sport fishing department upon presentation of a passport - one voucher per day per person. Such measures were taken because Chinook salmon are in a depressed state, and we are keeping more careful and strict records of their catch. Vouchers to catch other types of fish can be purchased at Sberbank, at Russian Post offices, at Instant Payment terminals and through our website. The most popular method turned out to be purchasing through terminals - it is through them that the largest number of vouchers are sold.

By the way, since payment through the terminal occurs step by step, during this process the citizen purchasing the ticket becomes familiar with the rules that he must follow on the site while fishing. This is also important. After all, responsible employees are assigned to all areas, fisheries inspectors and the police also work for them - all of them, at one time or another, can drive up to a citizen conducting fishing and ask to see a permit. The fisherman must have a permit (license) and an identification document in his hands.

This year we have already sold more than 24 thousand vouchers in the Kamchatka Territory, more than 20 thousand of them are salmon fishing licenses. More than 4 thousand people visited fishing grounds with these vouchers.

- So the population has an interest in this type of fishing?

Of course, it is growing every year, and the number of tickets sold is increasing. Especially this year – when the salmon runs are so good. In the Kamchatka Territory, the allocated limit for sport and recreational fishing is 166.1 tons this year. For salmon species, more than 40 percent of the allocated quotas for all subzones have already been used.

There are 8 sites on the east coast, and 9 on the west coast. All of them are located in places familiar to amateurs. Among them there are very popular ones - such as, for example, site No. 766 on the Avacha River, on Lake Bolshoy Vilyui (for smelt and herring), sea sites on the Bolshaya and Malaya Lagerny, in the village of Oktyabrsky and at Cape Levashov, in Sobolev and Palana...

Do our amateur fishermen behave decently when fishing? Do they follow all the rules and fish only with approved fishing gear?

As a rule, yes. We, of course, bear the burden of maintaining the sites, are responsible for their sanitary condition, and remove garbage. This is our duty and responsibility. Although, of course, I would like fishermen to be more clean, especially since we pay little for the right to fish.

As for fishing gear, we deliberately abandoned the use of nets in river sections, because in our understanding they do not fit well with the concept of amateur and sport fishing. Especially on the river. Chum salmon and pink salmon are excellently caught using spinning rods. Chinook salmon, of course, are more difficult to catch... Net fishing gear remains only in sea areas where you can’t catch fish in any other way. Of course, amateurs go to the sites mainly with permitted fishing gear. Unfortunately, there are also violators, and the conversation with them goes into the area of ​​responsibility of the regulatory authorities - the FSB PU, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the SVTU FAR.

There are specific fishing standards in sea and river areas for each type of salmon - these must also be observed. In this case, the main thing is not to cheat with the rules. If you took a voucher for one amount of fish, but caught twice as much in the net at the sea site, then you should know that it is possible to immediately extend the previously purchased voucher - agree with the person responsible at the site and pay for the actual volume caught. But at the same time, you should already have the original ticket, paid for earlier in one of the ways. You need to know about this and be prepared for it, so that Rybvod and the regulatory authorities have no complaints against you.

- Are there any complaints from amateurs about Rybvod?

If there are complaints in general or regarding the work of specific employees at the sites, we are ready to consider and accept all of them. There are different channels of communication with us - through the website, through requests. We see all requests daily and always respond to them. And we ask citizens to provide as much information as possible about the work of the sites.

Dmitry Yuryevich, another important area of ​​the branch’s work is fish farming. How are things going in our fish hatcheries?

Five of them are now fully operational. Catching breeders and laying eggs for incubation is a busy time. Manufacturers' approach to factory traps this year is very good. We associate this with the new methods of the fisheries protection forces in their work. The fish are accompanied by inspectors along the river from the mouth to the factory traps. At the same time, it fits in a ribbon, in good uniform volumes and is preserved until ripening. At the Ozerki plant, we were even able to remove the intermediate mill from the river this year, because manufacturers are fully approaching the factory traps, without delivery from the intermediate mill. We never tire of thanking SVTU FAR, PU FSB, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs for this.

The Vilyuisky plant has not yet started catching the breeders. Coho salmon eggs are laid there for incubation. The spawners have already entered the lake in good volume and are now at maturity. The plant in Ketkin has fulfilled 107 percent of the plan for laying caviar according to the state order. At the Paratunsky plant, the catch of chum salmon spawners has already exceeded 90 percent; there is still a catch of coho salmon ahead - we will also stock its caviar according to state orders. The plant in Malki fulfilled the plan for chinook salmon by 102 percent. At the plant in Ozerki, the process of catching sockeye salmon is still underway, with the plan being fulfilled to date by more than 70 percent.

All these plans constitute the state task for salmon reproduction. But our factories also raise so-called “commercial” fry. Its cultivation is paid for by enterprises participating in compensation measures. This is a kind of payment for the damage they cause to nature and salmon stocks. Tell me, which of our enterprises are involved in this process?

Many: fisheries and gas complexes, mining industry. Everyone who works in fishing areas annually applies to SVTU FAR for approval of their activities. Most of them become payers as part of compensation measures. This money is then used to maintain fish hatcheries, raise fry and then release them into the natural environment. And then we receive feedback in the form of the return of salmon to the spawning rivers of Kamchatka, which are successfully caught by the fishery complex.

For example, in 2018, Kamchatka hatcheries released more than 50 million salmon fry into the Kamchatka rivers. Of this, about 9 million chum and sockeye salmon were released as part of compensation measures. This year, in Ozerki, chum salmon eggs have already been fully allocated for incubation as part of aquaculture; in Ketkin and at the Paratunsky plant, more than 50 percent of the required spawners have been caught for these purposes.

Are businesses participating in this process in good faith? Or are there debtors among them to pay for compensation measures?

Unfortunately, there are debtors. We work with them in close cooperation with SVTU FAR in all ways available within the framework of the law. Last year, in particular, 38 organizations with debts were involved in the reproduction process, and 3 million salmon fry were raised with their funds.

I believe that this process needs to be treated more conscientiously, with the utmost seriousness. The same applies to the process of assessing the impact of activities on natural resources, and to calculating the damage caused. In the end, behind all this is the conservation of our resources - and therefore our future.

Every year, enterprises must obtain coordination of their activities with an assessment of the impact on natural resources. They all need to understand that only government agencies can give the most correct conclusions using the most current data, and we recommend turning to them. Only they have many years of experience in carrying out this work, a constantly updated scientific data base, and competent employees. For example, according to state regulations, the conclusions prepared by KamchatNIRO are checked by the Glavrybvod. And vice versa, our conclusions are checked by KamchatNIRO. As a result, the company receives a document of 100% quality. Unfortunately, we are forced to admit that there are unscrupulous organizations offering such services in Kamchatka.

Therefore, when ordering documentation from somewhere else, business managers should think: if obtained using outdated databases, will it bring subsequent problems in their work?

Biography

Dmitry Arkadyevich Schmidt (real name - David Aronovich Gutman; 1896-1937) - holder of two Orders of the Red Banner of the RSFSR, full Knight of St. George, participant in the First World War and the Civil War, division commander of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.

Dmitry Schmidt was born in 1896 in the city of Priluki, Poltava province (now Chernigov region of Ukraine). With the outbreak of World War I, he was called up to serve in the tsarist army. In 1916 he received the rank of ensign. He repeatedly distinguished himself in battles, for military merits he was awarded the St. George Crosses of four degrees, becoming a full Knight of St. George.

In 1917, Schmidt joined the RSDLP(b) and headed the party organization of one of the divisions of the 12th Army Corps. He was an active participant in the establishment of Soviet power in Priluki and surrounding areas. He was captured by the enemy and sentenced to death, but when the sentence was carried out he remained alive, being only wounded. When, after the conclusion of the Brest-Litovsk Treaty, German and Austrian troops occupied Ukraine, Schmidt led the Bolshevik underground and partisan detachment in Prilutsky district.

Since the fall of 1918, Schmidt served in the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, and was the commander of a regiment, brigade, and rifle division. Participated in the defense of Tsaritsyn. Later he began to command a group of troops in the Kherson direction. For distinguished service in the Civil War, he was twice awarded the Order of the Red Banner of the RSFSR. The second time Joseph Stalin signed the proposal. By the age of 23, Schmidt had already been wounded nine times in battle.

After the end of the war, Schmidt continued to serve in the Workers 'and Peasants' Red Army. He commanded a cavalry division, a cavalry school, and the 7th Samara Cavalry Division. Later he became deputy chief of staff of the North Caucasus Military District. In 1933 he graduated from the Military Academy of the Red Army, then in 1934-1937 he commanded the 8th separate mechanized brigade in the Kiev Military District.

On July 5, 1936, Schmidt was taken into custody in Kyiv by the NKVD of the USSR and sent under escort to Moscow. In the capital, he was charged with membership in the Trotskyist-Zinovievist counter-revolutionary terrorist organization. The investigation lasted for 11 months, during which time Schmidt admitted all the charges brought against him. Those arrested along with Schmidt testified against him. At the trial, Schmidt retracted his testimony, saying that it was obtained through torture.

On July 19, 1937, the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR sentenced Dmitry Arkadyevich Schmidt to capital punishment - the death penalty. On July 20, the sentence was carried out. The corpse was cremated and buried at the Donskoye cemetery.

The decision of the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR dated July 6, 1957, Schmidt was posthumously rehabilitated.

This post is a logical continuation of my series -.

A few quotes:

Dmitry Arkadyevich Schmidt (real name - David Aronovich Gutman; 1896-1937) - holder of two Orders of the Red Banner of the RSFSR, full Knight of St. George, participant in the First World War and the Civil War, division commander of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.

“Dmitry Shmidt famously fought on the fronts as part of the Red Cossack Corps, after the war he commanded a division in it. In the twenties he was an active Trotskyist. A former partisan, a man of desperate courage, Schmidt attached little value to idols and authorities. Trotsky's provocative expulsion from the party literally on the eve of the XV Congress (in December 1927) infuriated him. He arrived in Moscow and found Stalin somewhere during a break between meetings. Dressed in a Circassian coat, with a hat on his head, he approached the Secretary General, swore obscenely and, taking out an imaginary saber, threatened: “ Look, Koba, I’ll cut off your ears!“ Stalin had to swallow this insult too” (Rapoport V. and Alekseev Yu. Treason to the Motherland. London, 1989. P. 293).

In 1933 he graduated from the Military Academy of the Red Army, in 1933-34 he was commander of the 2nd separate mechanized brigade of the Ukrainian Military District, then in 1934-1937 he commanded the 8th separate mechanized brigade in the Kiev Military District. He was elected a member of the All-Ukrainian Central Executive Committee. He had many friends among the creative intelligentsia.

On July 5, 1936, Schmidt was taken into custody in Kyiv by the NKVD of the USSR and sent under escort to Moscow. In the capital, he was charged with membership in the Trotskyist-Zinovievist counter-revolutionary terrorist organization. The investigation lasted for 11 months, during which time Schmidt admitted all the charges brought against him. Those arrested along with Schmidt testified against him. At the trial, Schmidt retracted his testimony, saying that it was obtained through torture.

On July 19, 1937, the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR sentenced Dmitry Arkadyevich Schmidt to capital punishment - the death penalty. On July 20, the sentence was carried out. The corpse was cremated and buried at the Donskoye cemetery.

Yakov Osipovich Okhotnikov (1897, Romanovka, Bendery district, Bessarabia province - March 8, 1937, Moscow) - Soviet military and economic figure, participant in the Civil War.

In the 1920s he was a member of the Trotskyist opposition, in February 1927 he was subjected to party punishment for this. As a student at the Military Academy named after. M. V. Frunze, together with cadets Vladimir Petenko and Arkady Geller, took part in the protection of the Mausoleum during the parade on November 7, 1927, where he attacked I.V. Stalin with his fists. Despite the incident, all three continued their studies at the academy.

He worked as deputy head of Gipromez (State Institute for the Design of Metallurgical Plants). In the early 30s - head of the State Institute for the Design of Aviation Plants in Moscow (Giproaviaprom).

Expelled from the CPSU(b) in 1932. Arrested in 1933 in the case of the “counter-revolutionary group of I.N. Smirnov”, sentenced to three years. While in exile in Magadan, he worked as head of Giproavia motor depot No. 1. He was re-arrested on August 10, 1936 in Magadan, transported to Moscow, where on March 7, 1937 he was sentenced to capital punishment and executed the next day. Rehabilitated on May 15, 1958.

________________________________________ ________________________________________ ___________________

Two people, obvious and open Trotskyists. One publicly threatened Stalin in 1927. And the second, in the same year, attacked him. If you don’t know, in the USA they give you 5 years for threatening the president, without any further discussion. And here people weren’t even imprisoned. on the contrary, after these events each of them made a small career. Yes, in the end, everyone was shot. But not for threats and attacks on Stalin, but for Trotskyist beliefs. Of course, they also remembered Comrade Stalin, but this was simply an aggravating circumstance and not the main accusation. By the way, there were two more cadets with Okhotnikov - Petenko and Geller. I didn't find any information about them. I suspect that they might not even have been caught in the 1937 repressions.
Stalin was not a dictator. And even the first person in the state. Otherwise, these comrades would have been imprisoned or shot back in 1927. And they certainly would not have waited another 10 years.

Time flies quickly in an era of global changes in the world. What until recently seemed almost modern is today often perceived as patriarchal antiquity. So the topic of repression in the USSR in the 30s became a kind of textbook, having lost the heightened perception of it by society, characteristic of the late 80s. Meanwhile, like any historical phenomenon, it has its own undercurrents and reefs.

This was once again recalled by Viktor Suvorov’s book “Cleansing: Why did Stalin behead his army?” As stated in the annotation, “contrary to generally accepted opinion, Viktor Suvorov proves that Stalin acted correctly, accurately and decisively, clearing the army of “brilliant” commanders.” Among the latter, the author mentions the name of Dmitry Schmidt. Without touching on the conceptual side of Suvorov’s book, we considered it necessary to focus attention specifically on Schmidt’s personality and the main facts of his biography, since in the interpretation of some of them Suvorov contradicts himself.

So, Dmitry Arkadyevich Schmidt was born in 1896 in Priluki, Poltava province, into the family of a Jewish employee. During the First World War he was a private, and from 1916 an ensign in the Russian army. For military merits, one of the very few Jewish soldiers was awarded the Cross of St. George in all four degrees (full Knight of St. George).

In 1917, he became a Bolshevik and led the Bolshevik organization of one of the divisions of the 12th Army Corps. In January 1918, he made a lot of efforts to establish Soviet power in Priluki, but fell into the hands of the enemy and was sentenced to death. Nevertheless, during the execution of the sentence, he was wounded and remained alive and during the German-Austrian occupation of Ukraine he led the Bolshevik underground and a partisan detachment in the Prilutsky district.

In the fall of 1918, Schmidt became the commander of the Red Army: he commanded first an infantry regiment, then a brigade, an infantry division on the approaches to Tsaritsyn, and a group of troops in the Kherson direction. For military services he was twice awarded the Order of the Red Banner. Moreover, for the second time he was nominated for the award by none other than Stalin. The price of a successful military career for 23-year-old Schmidt was nine wounds.

Of course, from the perspective of today, one can assess Schmidt’s life path differently. But one thing is certain: he was a solid person, brave to the point of recklessness, accustomed to taking responsibility and not hiding behind other people’s backs. Otherwise, he would never have become a Knight of St. George and a Red Order Bearer. This is an essential point for understanding Schmidt’s behavior towards Stalin (as discussed in Suvorov’s book) and the logic of all subsequent events.

In 1917-1920 Schmidt and many other future victims of 1937 found themselves on one side of the political and military confrontation in society, defending their “truth of life” as best they could. In doing so, they significantly helped create a system that then destroyed them.

But let's return to the milestones of Schmidt's biography. In 1922-1924. he was already the head of the cavalry division, in 1924-1925 - the head of the Elizavetgrad Cavalry School, then commanded the 7th Samara Cavalry Division, was the head of the Krasnodar Cavalry School, and deputy chief of staff of the North Caucasus Military District. In 1931-1933 he studied at the Military Academy of the Red Army, and in 1933-1936 he commanded the 8th separate mechanized brigade of the Kyiv Military District. In 1935, when military ranks were introduced into the Red Army, he became a division commander.

Regarding the assignment of this title to Schmidt, Suvorov first writes that “he was moved down from a high position, but his rank was not lowered in the hope that he would improve.” Here the author was somewhat hasty, because Schmidt was appointed to the post of brigade commander in 1933, when personal military ranks did not yet exist in the army, so there was simply no reduction in rank.

Suvorov is closer to the truth in another section of the book, where he writes that “in 1935, Schmidt received the rank of division commander, although at that moment he commanded only a brigade.” In other words, Schmidt was given the title for the future, which most likely consisted of the deployment of the 8th brigade into a division. It is this development of events that fits entirely into the context of Suvorov’s previous books. Commenting on the incident that occurred between Stalin and Schmidt in 1927 after the end of the XV Congress of the CPSU (b), Suvorov again made a mistake: “Stalin is threatened by the offended commander of the 8th mechanized brigade.” Let us clarify again: Schmidt was not yet the commander of the 8th Brigade. These reservations by the author do not support his general assessment of Schmidt’s personality (“a complete lack of intelligence,” “a hooligan”). By the way, Marshal of the Soviet Union Zhukov, who had the opportunity to serve together with Schmidt in the 20s, was of the opposite opinion: “D. Schmidt is a smart guy, he expressed his thoughts clearly.” True, Zhukov also got it from Suvorov...

On July 5, 1936, in Kyiv, NKVD officers detained (actually arrested) Schmidt and sent him to Moscow. The circumstances of this arrest, in their dramatic nature, are somewhat reminiscent of the arrest of Sergei Kotov, the hero of N. Mikhalkov’s film “Burnt by the Sun.” But it was not the “capture group” who brought him into the hands of “justice” on a summer evening from outside the city, but his wife, Alexandra Konstantinovna, who probably already sensed evil, and was also subsequently convicted.

In Moscow, D. Schmidt was officially arrested and charged with participation in a “Trotskyist-Zinovievist counter-revolutionary terrorist organization.” Dmitry Arkadyevich was under investigation for eleven months, during which he admitted that before 1927 he had briefly been a member of the Trotskyist organization, but after 1927 he was not associated with anyone on a Trotskyist basis. In fairness, it must be said that in the 20s, Schmidt, due to his convictions and temperament, really showed himself as an active supporter of Leon Trotsky. But we are not aware of documents confirming that it could have come to his real participation in the conspiracy against Stalin.

Persons who had known Schmidt, previously arrested in this “case,” slandered the division commander under torture, testifying to his active involvement in the Trotskyist-Zinovievist conspiracy, but Dmitry Schmidt himself resolutely rejected all accusations. Nevertheless, under the influence of appropriate investigative methods, he was finally forced, under the dictation of his investigators, to admit “participation in a terrorist Trotskyist organization.” It is also true that at the trial he renounced this “testimony” of his.

In March 1937, in an appeal addressed to the investigator of the Main Directorate of State Security of the NKVD of the USSR, Dmitry Schmidt wrote: “I’ve been sitting in an isolation cell for 9 months. I still don’t know absolutely nothing about my case. In general, in my tragic state, I don’t see the end of the edge. In such a terrible notorious suicide bombers are kept isolated from the outside world... I am hallucinating, nightmares are choking me.”

In the address to the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks, Stalin dated April 6, 1937, there are the following lines: “I am not asking for your favor... I am writing to you, knowing that you can check everything... The most important thing is that I am not guilty of anything. - Well, to the same extent as Beilis or Dreyfus were innocent. T. Stalin!... In my solitary confinement I fell ill and am writing to you while lying in bed... There is no place for an honest man, a fighter and a revolutionary in prison".

After the death sentence was handed down to the participants in the “military-fascist conspiracy” led by Marshal Tukhachevsky, on June 17, 1937, an indictment was formulated in the case of D. Schmidt. He was charged with attempting to commit a terrorist attack against Voroshilov, preparing for the disintegration of the motorized unit he commanded, and participating in a military-fascist conspiracy for the purpose of an anti-Soviet coup and the seizure of power through an armed uprising.

On June 19, 1937, a closed court hearing of the Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR in the case of D. Schmidt took place in Moscow, lasting 30 minutes. The division commander was sentenced to capital punishment and executed the next day...
