Review of the Soviet Ground Forces, August 1983 – DDB-1100-418-83

The Review is published by the Soviet Warsaw Pact Division, Directorate for Research, Defense Intelligence Agency, to provide the widest dissemination of material relating to the Soviet Ground Forces based upon information from the Soviet military press and DIA unclassified works.

It is now available below after a near 7 year effort to get it.
