Help with Russian

[Jeff Leach]

I was working though a Russian document and a couple sections were beyond my ability.

The document is Оперсводка № 23 Штаба НАК-55 17.7.1941ЦАМО ф.943 оп.1 д.5 лл.61

The difficult section is Point 4.)

Under Потери в матчасти:

"Заряд. яшиков раздавлено - 3 хода и один заряшик 76 мм."

Under Потери:, after the line about killed horse and broken limber

"В расположение 342nd Howitzer Artillery Regiment не прибыло:
Ср. к-р Чернодужский и 38 красноармейцев.
Автомашин ГАЗ-АА 3, ЗИС-5 - 4, летучек типа Б 1,
Тракторов - 6. Результаты потерь уточняютс я."

Made another translation attempt:

"Заряд. яшиков раздавлено - 3 хода и один заряшик 76 мм." - three (45 mm) cassions crushed (lost) and one 76 mm cassion (lost).

"В расположение 342nd Howitzer Artillery Regiment не прибыло:
Ср. к-р Чернодужский и 38 красноармейцев.
Автомашин ГАЗ-АА 3, ЗИС-5 - 4, летучек типа Б 1,
Тракторов - 6. Результаты потерь уточняютс я."

Still not arrived with the 342nd Howitzer Artillery Regiment: Rifle company (?) commander Černodužskij and 38 Red Army soldiers, five GAZ-AA trucks, 4 ZIS-5 trucks, mobile installation B-1 (a maintenance vehicle?) and six tractors.

One question remains: can anyone tell me what 'Н/с' mean? It should be 'chief/of something'.

Мл. Н/с = младший начальствующий состав, it included ranks: младший сержант, сержант, старший сержант, старшина.
So perhaps it's NCO's in English?

One question remains: can anyone tell me what 'Н/с' mean? It should be 'chief/of something'.

Начсостав = formally all officers with special ranks (political, technical, administrative, medical). But could be used colloquially to designate any officers.

"Заряд. яшиков раздавлено - 3 хода и один заряшик 76 мм."

Ammunition cassion for the 76-mm gun consisted of two parts called "ход". So, I believe, that means 3 hafl-caisson and one whole caisson lost.

Ср. к-р

Medium commander = officer in the rank up to captain inclusively.

mobile installation B-1 (a maintenance vehicle?)

Hello
''летучек типа Б" - yes, it's a maintenance car. He had some differences in his class, depending on his belonging to the military branch. Mainly based on the ZIS-5 and the three-axis ZIS-6.
