Pavel Illyich Bulgakov (3 August 1856 – 1940) was an Imperial Russian division and corps commander. He fought in the war against the Ottoman Empire. He took part in the Russian invasion of East Prussia, a part of the German Empire. On 18 February 1915, his forces were surrounded the German Tenth Army in the Augustow Forest. On 21 February 1915 he and surviving men surrendered. This provided time for the rest of the Russian Tenth Army to form a new defensive position. Bulgakov was taken prisoner by the Germans and remained in captivity until after the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. On 3 August 1918 he was released. He traveled by train to Mtsensk in Oryol Oblast, where he was hospitalized after arriving on 8 August 1918. On 6 September 1918 he went to Bălți, Bessarabia (now in Moldova, then controlled by Romania). He remained there for the duration of the Russian Civil War and after the Bolshevik victory. He died shortly after Bessarabia was annexed by the Soviet Union.
