Here the author bases his assumption that the place of employment of the senior class combined 1st and 3rd queue at the end of August 1918 was the city of Yekaterinburg. Thus, in the summer of 1918 Alma Mater of Russian and Soviet General Staff for the specified summer he managed to hold class twice its accelerated courses 3rd line in the same city! Secondly, the specificity of these courses was the fact that 40 out of 70 officers (more than half), before the service in the Red Army, had to serve to “white” parts. Moreover, 7 persons of 70 (exactly 10 %) in the early 1920s had served in the Red Army again. Some of the former students of the third stage of accelerated courses AGSh managed even at a certain stage of the period 1920–1930 years served for the benefit of the punitive system of NKVD.
