Artyom Sergeev - adopted son of Stalin (1921-2008). In general, in the context of the discussion of the Soviet leaders of the country and the party, it is always worth remembering that they were not armchair rats - almost all of them had combat experience. Stalin fought a lot during the Civil War, defended Tsaritsyn. Khrushchev, although I do not like him, wasted the whole war along the fronts. Brezhnev also went through the whole war, I published his photo. Leonid Ilyich, including several dozen times, visited Malaya Zemlya, and once the boat was torn apart by a mine and Brezhnev almost died. When repelling one of the German attacks, he led a panicked machine-gun crew and the attack was repulsed. During the war, Andropov was unfit for service (diabetes mellitus), but supervised the training of partisans in Kareli.

All three of Stalin's sons fought. Vasily Stalin led an aviation division, shot down several German planes and was awarded a number of orders. Yakov Stalin was an artilleryman, was captured and died. Artyom Sergeev from the first days of the war at the front, was in captivity, fled, commanded an artillery brigade, has 24 wounds, including two heavy ones. I will attach his photo.
