  • Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov (Георгий Константинович Жýков, 1 December 1896 – 18 June 1974) was a Soviet military commander who led the Red Army to liberate the Soviet Union from Axis occupation, to advance through much of Eastern Europe, and to conquer Germany's capital, Berlin. He is one of the most decorated heroes in the history of both Russia and the Soviet Union.
  • Zhukov was born into a poverty-stricken peasant family in Strelkovka, Maloyaroslavsky Uyezd, Kaluga Governorate (now merged into the town of Zhukov in Zhukovsky District of Kaluga Oblast). In 1915 he was conscripted into the army of the Russian Empire. He joined the Bolshevik Party after the October Revolution. Promoted to full general in 1940, Zhukov was briefly (January–July 1941) chief of the Red Army's General Staff before a disagreement with Stalin led to him being replaced by Marshal Boris Shaposhnikov.
