I vaguely remember anything about the end of Kovpak's resistance in WWII. As far as I remember, his forces perished in what was expexted to be a battle with much superior German force but Kovpak was airlifted to safety by the order of Stavka. Whatever it was, could someone add this story to an article? It is a significant fact, I think. - Irpen 01:27, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
The article I read about Kovpak partisans ( http://www.communist.ru/lenta/?745) said nothing about his unit being destroyed.
At the end of the article it says: "The elite SS units sent to destroy Kovpak's partisans encircled his units but were unable to defeat them. Kovpak managed to break through encirclement after he divided his force into numerous small groups. Most of his partisans made to back to the forests of Polesie (northern Ukraine and southern Belarus). Later they once again united into one mighty Kovpak's force. In January 1944 they were renamed into the 1st Ukrainian partisan division named after their commander - Sydor Kovpak." I was not able to find any more info on this in other sources.

OK, looks like I was wrong about airlift. Here is a good article in Zerkalo Nedeli (Kiev) to use in expanding this WP article [1]. There is more if one enters "Ковпак" in the search string at newspapers site www.zerkalo-nedeli.com. Quote:

Quite a difficult topic to discuss, although Kovpak was Ukranian and most of his actions took place in Ukraine, by Wikipedia's default, most of the history WWII on the eastern front is given using Russian transliteration (e.g. battle of Kharkov, storming of the Dniepr, defence of Odessa...). I think there is a case for moving the article to Sidor Artemovich Kovpak.

This is and obvious geographical nonsense, because Chapayev never fought against Denikin.-- Paul Siebert ( talk) 06:22, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
