This map from Beskrovni's atlas shows the
names of the Russian commanders and number of troops in the various sectors. It
also shows the names and strength of the Allied groups. As on the other map,
note that the Russian defense line crosses between Bastions 3 and 4 within a
few yards of the head of South bay. The final successful Allied assault
captured the Makakov kurgan, thus exposing the entire harbor to fire. At this
point the Russians evacuated the city by crossing on a pontoon bridge to the
north side.
