"дшг спецназ" can stay for "landing-assault party of the special destination troops"

Thank's for all help.

Usually it's a mark for a person who makes this comment. Maybe it's not a writer, but a reporter?
I can see only one name and his initials are not V.S.

here's how I translate that:

Thus, the tanks were devoid of artillery, infantry and, particularly, aviation support.

(I know I changed the sentences a bit too much for some people's taste...)

So, if the context is during the border battles in 1941, it only means that they stayed in the barracks, well in the rear, or rather, in the original position of the division?

Trigger Happy,

Damn good job. Couldn't do any better myself. Andrey is also spot on.

Folks, you can rely on TH and Andrey for any of their future translations, as far as I'm concerned.

"Н" - analogue of Latin "n"

Yep. Andrey is spot on .......as expected.

Does that help ?
Michel

Perhaps because when the unit was sent to refit, it was no longer available for combat, hence запасный, which can also mean "spare" or "extra". IMHO, резервный would have a more direct implication of being "part of the reserve".
