Yan Petrovich Gaylit (Russian: Ян Петро́вич Га́йлит, Latvian: Jānis Gailītis; May 25, 1894 – August 1, 1938) was a Soviet Komkor of Latvian ethnicity. He fought in the Imperial Russian Army in World War I before going over to the Bolsheviks in the subsequent civil war. He was a recipient of the Order of the Red Banner. During the Great Purge, as a part of the so-called "Latvian Operation", Gaylit was arrested by the NKVD on August 15, 1937 and executed the following year.
