| Popis: | The article features the results of work in The Russian State MilitaryHistoric Archive (RGVIA) on identifying and making a list of all the Orlov noblemen who studied in the Land Gentry Military School in 1732 – 1761. It is revealed that in the military corps there were only 6 cadets by this name. According to some sources, there studied a certain Grigory Orlov, whom many researchers identify as Grigory Grigorievich Orlov. In fact, as the archival data shows, it was Grigory Nikitich Orlov – the future chief Marshal of the court of Catherine II – who was trained at the Cadet Corps. He was directed to the Cadet Corps December 2, 1742, and in February 1748 he was advanced to the rank of corporal at the age of 20. In 1749 G. N. Orlov was "excluded" from the corps for health reasons for two years. G. G. Orlov never studied at the Cadet Corps. |
