Suvorovskii kadetskii korpus
Scope and Content Note
These papers consist of select records of the Suvorovskii kadetskii korpus (Suvorov cadet corps), located in Moscow, whose members were active in emigration in its alumni association. The records relate to the history of the cadet corps as well as the fate of the corps’ alumni in the diaspora. Included among the documents are correspondence, memoirs, and photographs. Of special interest are records pertaining to the annual celebration of the corps’ feast day, October 14th. The rich collection of prints, dating from 1899-1964 and totaling five hundred and sixty nine provides a rich source of information, as most prints are described in detail.
