Dimitri Floydorovich Sudayev

According to the NKVD, Dimitri Floydorovich Sudayev (Russian: Димитри Флойдорович Садэйев) (June 11, 1905–?) was a servant of the Romanov Family. He escaped during the Russian Revolution of 1917. He is one of the servants who was believed to have known of the existence of Grand Duchess Anastasia who was believed to have escaped during the execution of the royal family.

Early life
According to the NKVD, Dimitri was born in Petrograd (St. Petersburg), but according to the FSB, he was born in Yakutsk; his real name may actually be Dimitry Nikolayevich Antonov (Russian: Димитри Николэйевич Антонов). He was born to Valentina Antonov Floydorivich, a housekeeper, and Nikolai Aleksevich Sudayev, a factory worker.

Servant to the Romanov family
Dimitri's father and mother died of disease, and at eight years old, he found employment as one of the few young servants in the Romanov household. After the Revolution began, Dimitri escaped the Winter Palace by going through a window and climbing down. Contrary to his depiction in the 1997 film Anastasia, he did not help Anastasia escape.

Execution
Dimitri followed the family from the White Palace to Yekaterinburg. He went there and saw the Romanov family desperate and sick. After the execution, Anastasia survived the execution by covering herself with jewelry. Dimiri came to Anastasia to save her but the Guards caught Dimitri holding Anastasia's body and he ran away.

After the Revolution
Upon his escape, he went to Moscow to find a job, becoming a worker in a tractor factory. Four years later, he was transferred to a Tsaritsyn tractor factory by train. According to the FSB, he was transferred to Kharkiv but the reports were not true. Dimitri met and became friends with a fellow worker named Sergei Grigorivich.

During World War II
When World War II began, the Wehrmacht invaded the Soviet Union. In 1942, the Germans invaded Stalingrad (formerly Tsaritsyn), and the factory where Dimitri worked was hit by an artillery shell. His friend Sergei was killed by falling debris, unbeknownst to Dimitri. He ran to the Volga to escape the rain of artillery shells, but the Red Army was blocking the escape of civilians, including Dimitri. He went back to the factory and discovered that Sergei had died.

Wishing to avenge his friend, Dimitri went to a Red Army camp to become a soldier. Although he did not know how to shoot, he was trained by an officer. Equipped with a Mosin-Nagant rifle and a TT-30 pistol, he joined the 62nd Army and begin their mission: "to eliminate Germans in Stalingrad".

He met a soldier named Aleksy Malinovsky and became friends with him. Dimitri and Aleksy went to a patrol and then 2 minutes later, they were ambushed by 5 German soldiers. Dimitri killed three Germans, Aleksy killed one, and the last escaped the gun fight only to be killed by a sniper. Dimitri and Aleksy continued to fight the Germans in Stalingrad; on February 2, 1943, the battle ended. Dimitri and Aleksy were transferred to the 7th Guards Army.
