Viktor Suvorov (born April 20, 1947) is a Soviet Army Cold War-era Soviet military intelligence officer who defected to the United Kingdom, eventually becoming a famous writer and historian. Suvorov made his name writing books about the Soviet Army, GRU, and Spetsnaz, but it was his popular history book Icebreaker and several follow-up books about World War II that spurred controversy. Viktor Rezun comes from a military family of mixed Ukrainian-Russian descent, having been either born, or raised, in Ukraine's Cherkasy where his father served. According to Rezun, he studied in a Suvorov Military School: the one based in Voronezh (from 1958 63) and later transferred to Kalinin (from 1963-1965). From 1965-1968 Rezun finished the Frunze Kiev Red Banner Higher Military Command School. In 1968 he served in the 145th Motorized Rifles Regiment of the Carpathian Military District, serving in the invasion of Czechoslovakia. In 1970-1971 he served in the Volga Military District Headquarters, and later with the 808th Independent Army Reconnaissance Company (Spetsnaz). After attending the Military Diplomatic Academy from 1971-1974, Rezun joined the Soviet mission to the United Nations Office at Geneva, working undercover for the Soviet military intelligence service (GRU) and achieving a rank of Captain. On June 10, 1978 Rezun defected to the United Kingdom. After the perestroika, Viktor Suvorov's identity was revealed in the Soviet Union and confirmed by authorities. Since then, Suvorov continuously interacts with his readers and critics in Russia and Ukraine, including the instance of TV discussion organized by one of Ukrainian TV channels. Suvorov made his name writing books about the Soviet Army, military intelligence, and special forces, including The Liberators, Aquarium, Inside the Soviet Army, Inside Soviet Military Intelligence and Spetsnaz, which were partly based on his personal experience.
