Estonia in March 1942, Entire families were transported 10KM outside of villages and executed.
Despite the snowy cold, men and women were forced to undress, walk barefoot towards the death pits.
Survivors were very few, due to injury and the naked exposure.
Winters in Estonia are ruthless!

Not in March 1942. At Wannsee conference in January 1942 it was officially announced that no Jews were left in Estonia. Not one. There were no partisans in Estonia - so no reprisals either. Latvia... maybe - but not Estonia

I stand corrected - DECEMBER 1941.

Thank you.

I stand corrected - DECEMBER 1941.

Thank you.

That might be - although November is a bit more likely.

More naked execution based on history.

The Red Terror 1918, the bourgeoisie and those loyal the the White Guard were stripped naked and executed.
Entire families were arrested, tried in court and executed by the Cheka soldiers 1918 +.

Ordered to undress in anonymous locations, and were executed by pistol shot to the head.
Their corpses were carted away by cart and wagon.
No care was given for age or sex, most were found guilty in court.

1918-1953, to be more precise. Second, during Civil war (1918-23) courts (kangaroo courts, to be more precise) were rarely involved - most were executed by Cheka or Red Army with no trial at all. Undressing was not the norm, although it did happen. There were no Cheka "soldiers" - they were called сотрудники (employees/personnel, sometimes agents). Pistols were rarely used - Nagant revolvers were considered far more reliable. Not all were shot inside - many were executed outside using Mosin or other rifles.

Damn. I understand and accept:

In every group there is a DOCTOR, engineer or college professor who must infer. I understand. I am humble by these knowing people who mean well...

I wonder if children or teenagers over the age of 14 were executed?
