Excerpt: Lieutenant General Pavel Anatolyevich Sudoplatov ( A C ) (July 7, 1907 September 26, 1996) was a member of the intelligence services of the Soviet Union who rose to the rank of lieutenant general. He was involved in several famous incidents of the early Cold War, including the assassination of Leon Trotsky, and the Soviet espionage program which obtained information about the atomic bomb from the Manhattan Project. His autobiography, Special Tasks, made him well-known outside the USSR, and provided a detailed look at Soviet intelligence and Soviet internal politics during his years at the top. He was born in Melitopol, in Eastern Ukraine, to a Russian mother and a Ukrainian father. He joined Cheka in 1921, at the age of fourteen, and was promoted to the Secret Political Department of the Ukrainian OGPU in 1927. In 1928 he married Emma Kaganova, from Gomel, Belarus who had been recruited by and worked for the OGPU. He transferred to the Soviet OGPU in 1933, moving to Moscow, and soon after became an "illegal," operating under cover in a number of European countries. In May, 1938, on Stalin's direct order, he personally assassinated the Ukrainian nationalist leader Yevhen Konovalets by giving him a booby-trapped box of chocolates. In the fall of 1938, he was made acting director of the Foreign Department of the NKVD (as the OGPU had by then become) after the purging of the previous head, in a set of purges which later culminated in the fall of Nikolai Yezhov (who was eventually replaced by Lavrentii Beria).
