RE: [Cz-L] Military and other records

Re your uncles - there is a Russian site (that means you can enter it only
if you can use Cyrillic characters on your computer and will understand the
Russian response) that helps find soldiers of the Red Army. This is it:
http://www.obd-memorial.ru
Perhaps you can contact the nearest Russian consulate or Embassy and ask
that they help you to enter your enquiry.
You need to insert Family name, forename, father's name, year of birth,
military degree, and then press search. I suppose that you certainly can not
enter the latter but you may have most of the first four parameters.
