Soviet Politburo chose Comrade Konstantin Chernenko to become a new leader of the Soviet Union after the sudden death of Yuri Andropov in February of 1984. Chernenko became the fifth General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and served in that position for barely over a year. My recollection of life during so-called "coffin on gun-carriage races" in the Soviet Union, when in a short period of time three Soviet leaders passed away: Leonid Brezhnev, Yuri Andropov, and Konstantin Chernenko.
