Here is a start for the search for ships in the first Evacuation of March-April 1942 Gustaw Herling wrote: March 26th,? 1942 10th
division from Lugovoye was transported on a goods
train through Dzambul, Arys, Tashkent,
Dzizak, Samarkand, Bukhara, Tchardzhau, and Ashkhabad to Krasnowodsk. ? March 30thembarked on 2 ships ?leaving the port …..Agamali Ogly and
Turkmenistan. Arrived Night of April 2ndat Pahlevi. ? Kazimierz Kaczanowski: ?Left Keremine
March 29, 1…..left on a ship at Krasnovodsk and he said his ship’s
?journey from Krasnovodsk took 27 hours to reach?
Pahlevi….arrived at midnight arriving April 2nd. Antoni Chroscielewski: ?Polish 10th Division formed in the
USSR: March 1942: ... I got to a place called Lugowaja. ... There was a
rallying point in Lugowaja, where the 10th Division had formed. I was 16 years
old then. So I went to see the army commission and I was accepted into the
Polish Army ... I was immediately accepted and received a British uniform. After four weeks, they evacuated us to Krasnowodsk and then
further, to Iran. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87pl-O8Gm6A&feature=plcp&context=C292d7UDOEgsToPDskKWMIQIzs9FIOJrKfUA0B-d
with spoken English translation over Polish testimony. We came to Krasnowodsk ?[March 27, working backwards from
Pahlevi arrival April 1?] by train, straight to the port. Before we were loaded
on the ship we were given soup that was very salty because it was made from
dried salt fish. But everyone was hungry and there was no selection, so
everyone ate what he was given. Before boarding, everyone was also given a
crust of black bread and two salt herrings from a barrel. The ship was some
kind of tanker, not a passenger ship, where about 4,000 to 5,000 people were
packed onto the top deck, one beside another. It was a beautiful day, at the start, and everyone was ecstatic to at
last be escaping that hell. The ship departed about 2 p.m. The sea was very
calm, but after awhile there were gentle long waves that you couldn't see, but
we could start to feel it. Then fog arrived, and a storm started. Many of the
people started to get sick. It turned out that there was no drinking water on
the ship. After that salty soup and salted fish, after those herrings, there
was no water. It was a tragedy, truly. The storm was so huge on this sea, the Caspian, that it was literally
throwing the ship around. Water was flowing over the deck, where the people
were, and several were probably washed overboard without anyone knowing about
it. I had to run to the side every so often to be sick. If the ship had tilted
and a wave came, I also would have been washed overboard since there was no way
I could hold on the the sort of barrier there. Unfortunately, the
ship was damaged during the night, during the storm. The rudder was ripped off
or something like that. We drifted on
the Caspian Sea for about three days, without water, without anything. I
had to endure the sun because there was no kind of shade, so you had to stay
out in the sun. By the third day you didn't care if the ship would sink or not,
a person was so exhausted. We even tried to haul up some water, from the sea, but
that made for an even worse effect. It was not until the fourth day that a
different ship drew up and we transferred to it - on the sea, on the very sea. We arrived at Pahlevi, Iran, on April 1, 1942. We disembarked at the port and had to go a few, I
don't know, a few kilometres to get to the camp that the British had set up on
the beach, on the Caspian Sea ? ? 10th Light
Artillery Regiment: March 25th Regiment left ?ugowaja and March 31, embarked
in on the ship Agamali Og?y". ? Tadeusz Szlenkier Charles: Evacuated ?from ZSSR April 4, 1942, on the ship "Stalin" to Pahlevi in
??Persia. ? Jedrzej
