message: Thanks for correcting the partisans :)
But I was slightly wrong as well -- in fact he was not a private i.e. he did not have any rank.
He was in fact used as a scout for Voronezh as he lived in that city prior to German invasion. He was 16 years old at that time. That practice (using youngsters) was not uncommon for Red Army. It was based on the fact that German patrols rarely detained youngsters and women, and any adult male walking around caused suspicion.
And thus the claim he was the first civilian in space is entirely correct, as he was not officially enlisted to the Red Army during the WW II.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Egh0st (talk • contribs) 22:46, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: In any case, someone who served in an army or a navy years ago, perhaps during a war, and then left for civilian life, is still considered to be a CIVILIAN from then on in the English language. In the case of Feoktistov, it appears that he never entered an army, navy, or air force whatsoever.98.81.2.95 (talk) 01:23, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Astronaut David Scott and Cosmonaut Alexei Leonov both describe Feoktistov in their joint autobiography Two Sides of the Moon: Our Story of the Cold War Space Race published in 2006.  Maybe none of it is worth mentioning in the article but I thought I'd record the fact on wikipedia somewhere. Jstuby (talk) 16:31, 16 June 2014 (UTC)
