witch-of-habonim-dror: The standard form of Soviet war correspondence during World War II were letters folded into a triangular shape sent free from the front. The image shows the letters of Yakov Lazarovich Ashurov, born in Baku, Azerbaijan. He enlisted at 17 and was killed at Stalingrad in 1942. His letters to his parents survived, written in the Tat-Juhuri language (related to Farsi and Kurdish) used by the Caucasus Mountain Jews, as well as in Russian and biblical Hebrew. -- source link
