this article will be rewritten when i get to it in my Marshal of the Soviet Union series, unless someone wants to do it first. Adam 00:26, 5 May 2004 (UTC)
Did Chuikov command the Russian 62nd Army or the Russian 64th Army? I know both fought viciously for Stalingrad, but I think it was the 62nd that Chuikov commanded. I'll re-check that in my primary sources (Enemy at the Gates, by William Craig and Stalingrad, memories and reassessments by another guy who's name escapes me.) Cam 20:27, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
Read the article through, it contains the answers to these questions! Malcolm535 ( talk) 20:08, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Removed this statement. Apparently, the author of removed phrase meant Soviet (pre-1917 Russian field marshals, quite obviously, were buried elsewhere: Kamensky in his estate in Oryol governorate, Suvorov in St. Petersburg etc.). But then what about five Soviet marshals executed in Stalin's time? Marshal Kulik, it appears, was executed in Samara. He was downgraded to a general, true, but he was a marshal for quite a while. So the phrase should probably be reduced to First of Soviet marshals buried with military honors outside of Moscow, quite confusing, isn't it? NVO ( talk) 18:50, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
The intro paragraph really needs cleaning up. It uses the qualifier "great" twice to describe the subject and reads like the the conclusion of an essay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.48.235.205 ( talk) 02:45, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
I was wondering while reading this entry, "How did I never hear of this great "Marshal Chuikov"? But of course, I had; his name was Marshal Zhukov. Changing names long in use in the West to unfamiliar ones in use elsewhere is done only to confuse people, the opposite of educating them. 2604:2000:1580:425C:1920:48F:A553:49A1 ( talk) 10:28, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
Hey fellow Wikipedians! I noticed that all of the direct quotes from Marshal Chuikov needed citation, and was able to find the citations within Dr. Jochen Hellbeck's Stalingrad: The City that Defeated the Third Reich, taken from Soviet archives (I believe). I am a new Wikipedia editor, so if someone can review these citations for errors, and offer any constructive feedback, I'd be grateful. Honored to have contributed even in the smallest way towards remembering such an important historical figure. Gimmethecreeps ( talk) 00:55, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
