Novocherkassk

Near as I can make out, the Don Cossack Cadet School is in Novocherkassk.

Novocherkassk is a city in Rostov Oblast, Russia, located near the confluence of the Tuzlov and Aksay Rivers, the latter a distributary of the Don River. Novocherkassk is best known as the cultural capital of the Cossacks, and as the official capital of the Don Cossacks. Population: 168,746. . . the city was founded in 1805. - Wikipedia
