Meet Lieutenant Colonel Andrej Necitailo. His travel document was issued on 25 September 1947 by the consular section of the Soviet military administration in Berlin-Karlshorst. The purpose is a journey to Yugoslavia, with Hungary and CSSR stamps/visas included. The document was valid until 10 October 1947.
Such documents from the Soviets during the occupation of Germany are rare to find. Regular, let alone diplomatic passports from the USSR from WWII are almost impossible to find. Russia has declared such documents as “national cultural treasures”. As such, they can’t get out of the country. Some years ago, a Russian reader approached me with several diplomatic passports of an ambassador and family. Unfortunately, the communication ended after just a few emails. At least I got the pictures of these treasures. Document Soviet Occupation Berlin
