Jaan Kruus was born in Sooniste Parish, Wiek County (now Märjamaa Parish, Rapla County). He fought in the Estonian War of Independence and afterwards pursued a military career. He was promoted to major-general in 1936. In 1940, during the Soviet occupation of Estonia, he was transferred to the Red Army and was a commander in the 182nd Rifle Division, part of the 27th Army.
