There is a full order of battle for
the AFSR for 29 September 1919, which had a revision on 18 October,
1919 (or 16 September and 5 October in the Old Style dates). The list
below is worked off the figures for that later date, but taking a few
details over from the first, and adding stuff in from Volkov's
Encyclopedia of the White Army.
(I have left it in .html rather
than put it in .pdf like most of my orbats because I expect to have to
correct mistakes from time to time.)
