• The composition of Soviet penal units was standardized by Georgy Zhukov's order, "The Status of Penal Units of the Army". These penal battalions, or shtrafbats, would have an official strength of 360 former Gulag prisoners plus a small heavily armed guard detachment. The former prisoners would only be issued with weapons and ammunition immediately before going into action. They were typically required to serve in the penal battalion for between one and three months, and would be eligible to transfer to a Red Army unit if they were to sustain a combat wound. The official view was that, as the men were unreliable, they were highly expendable and should be used to reduce losses in regular units. It is estimated that some 500,000 military personnel and Gulag prisoners were sentenced to service in penal battalions during the war. ww2dbase [Georgy Zhukov | AC]
