    Threadmarks: Omake: Wedding jitters

    July 15, 1906 Tiflis, Georgia Russian Empire I stepped out of the Svanidze house into the muggy Georgian air, casting one last look back at Keke and the others. They were bustling about inside like a pack of hens before a wedding feast, wringing hands, muttering blessings, smothering one...

    Excerpt from a January 17, 1983 Interview with Ridley Scott, following the release of Blade Runner Interviewer: Let's move to the next question, Mr. Scott.

    Threadmarks: Assault

    October 8, 1918 Lappi Finnish Socialist Workers' Republic The night was thick and restless. Beyond the black silhouettes of the pines, Tampere burned. Gunfire cracked in sharp bursts, explosions rolled like distant thunder, and the screams—always the screams—rose and fell like the cries of...

    Threadmarks: Lottery of life

    September 27, 1918 Outskirts of Toijala Contested Finnish Territory Nikolai Yezhov stood rigid at attention with the rest of the men, boots sinking into the damp earth, rifle heavy in his hands. His eyes, however, were fixed on one figure alone: General Mikheil Jugashvili. Terrifying—that was...

    Threadmarks: Graduation

    September 19, 1918 Officer School Parade Ground Helsinki, Finnish Socialist Workers' Republic I stood before the first batch of graduates from our little officers' school, lined up on the parade ground like tin soldiers waiting for someone to wind the key in their backs. Roughly two hundred of...

    Threadmarks: Helsinki blues

    July 24, 1918 Helsinki Finnish Socialist Workers' Republic Kullervo Manner's office looked less like a seat of government and more like a provincial clerk's waiting room that had accidentally declared itself a republic. Peeling wallpaper. A desk with one leg shorter than the others. The map of...

    Threadmarks: Target acquired

    July 3, 1918 Finland Station Petrograd, Russian SFSR The trip back from Murmansk was—against all odds—easier than expected. Which is saying something, considering I was marching ten thousand half-starved, increasingly paranoid Czechoslovaks south, with only five hundred of my own revolutionary...

    Threadmarks: Never admit defeat

    May 15, 1918 Murmansk Russia I stood on the edge of the ruined harbor, the smell of burnt wood and saltwater clinging to the morning air like a cheap cologne you can't wash off. The sea was calm now, though it still reeked faintly of oil from the ships we'd scuttled. In the distance, the wreck...

    Threadmarks: Interlude: All Quiet on the western front

    Excerpt from the Wikipedia page on the German Spring offensive: By the winter of 1917, Russia had been knocked out of the war. The treaty of Brest Litvosk, signed on December 10, 1917 was a major coup for German diplomacy. It knocked Russia out of war and allowed Germany to achieve some of its...

    Threadmarks: Interlude: Blue on Blue (The Czechoslovak civil war)

    An excerpt from the Wikipedia article on the Czechoslovak revolt in Siberia: By early 1918, the Czechoslovak Legion — once a coherent, if weary, fighting force — had become scattered across the immensity of Russia. Roughly 40,000 men remained under arms, but divided into four major...

    Threadmarks: Clipped wings

    May 7, 1918 Winter Palace Petrograd, Russia Stalin sat in the Central Committee chamber of the former Winter Palace, his brother-in-law Aleksandr Svanidze beside him, quietly shuffling papers. Outwardly, Stalin presented his usual mask — calm, unreadable, lips set in a faint frown. Inside...

    Threadmarks: Battle of Murmansk

    Excerpt from George Orwell's 1945 novel, Animal Farm: Napoleon and Bonaparte were two large Berkshire boars, littermates from the same sow, but so different in manner that many animals wondered how they had come from the same mother. Napoleon was a pig of quiet disposition, rarely seen in...

    Threadmarks: Train to Murmansk (part 3)

    Field Marshall Mikheil Jugashvili and his Soviet Guards have been both our salvation and our undoing. Their men, tanks and aircraft carve through the fascists with frightening ease, yet their presence weighs on us like a second occupation. Since the anarchist revolt in Barcelona back in January...
