The history of Soviet Signal Corps traces back to October, 1919, when a signal corps chief of the Red Army was appointed and the Signal Corps Administration set up upon the instructions of V. I. Lenin.
In November, 1919 the Higher Electrotechnical School (later – the Military Electrotechnical Academy of Communications) was set up.
During the World War II combat orders were awarded to about 600 signal corps units, and the title of Hero of the Soviet Union was conferred on 290 signal corps soldiers.
In the postwar period the structure of the signal corps was radically reorganized, and the signal corps was armed with modern communications equipment.
