Contemporaries about Bauyrzhan Momyshuly

 * About the outstanding teaching gift of Momysh-uly, one of the students of the Academy, I. M. Golushko, recalls in his memoirs “Soldaty tyla(Soldiers of the rear)”:

Speaking about the positive influence of the best teachers on our audience, I can not, first of all, not to recall the person in our eyes half-legendary. This is about Colonel Bauyrzhan Momysh-Uly, who taught a course in general tactics. Many of us have found out about him from the book of Alexander Beck "Volokolamskoye shosse(Volokolamsk Highway)", in which Bauyrzhan was launched as a central hero. Our interest in this man grew even more when it was known that the colonel wrote talentedly on the themes of war and had already published several short stories in a local publishing house. We, of course, immediately got them, read and recognized this “attempt at writing” as very promising. We always looked forward to the lectures of Momysh-uly. He expounded any material intelligibly, often resorting to diagrams rather than summaries, and supporting each thesis with instructive examples from combat experience. He was able to somehow simply, without distinction in rank, and at the same time demanding to treat all the listeners. Analyzing the complex issues of tactics, gradually taught us to independent thinking. To this end, he could interrupt his story in the most unexpected place, to ask: “What does Captain Ivanov think about this?” Or “What would Comrade Petrov does in this situation?”. And the students were constantly ready to report their decision, to justify their course of action. The constant contact of the teacher with the audience forced to creatively comprehend all the material studied.

In our academy, Colonel Momysh-uly was loved by both students and teachers for the simplicity and directness of judgments, for honesty and cheerful disposition. He knew how fascinating to talk about the hard fighting, which led them Panfilovskaya division, about the exploits of fellow soldiers. The most interesting were his memories of the battle of Moscow, in which Bauurzhan tooks an active part, being a battalion commander, and also memories of battles at the end of the war, when he was already a division commander.

* In 1963, an interview with Fidel Castrowas published. To the question: “Who would you call the hero of the Second World War?” Castro answered:Hero of the book by Alexander Beck Volokolamskoye shosse(Volokolamsk Highway (story) | "Volokolamsk Highway)" - Kazakh Momysh-Uly. ""
