The article analyzes the attitude of Stalin to command personnel of the Red Army and Navy highest level after the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. The attitude of Stalin to the generals and officer corps, who won the bloodiest in the history World War, virtually unchanged compared with the prewar years. Still, trying to stay in people’s memory the only winner the enemy, the Soviet dictator used all means available to it: both intrigue, arrests, torture and executions, so that the credibility and merits of the Soviet outstanding military commanders did not have the same scale of worship as the impact itself. Despite all attempts of Stalin to be the sole organizer and mastermind of the Great Victory of the Soviet people - he has failed. The winner in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945 was not I. Stalin but the Soviet people and the brave generals and admirals who stood at the head of a victorious Army and Navy.
