Yevetsky, Chief of Supplies, Southern Front
During July you were sent a considerable quantity of uniforms and footwear.
Despite this, in all the armies on the Southern Front some units are without boots or clothing.
On pain of being held personally answerable, I order you to take vigorous measures to immediately distribute what has been received among the needy units.[1]
Lenin
Chairman, Council of Defence
