November 18 1941 of the year near Moscow killed General I.V. Panfilov

18 November 1941 of the year near the village of Gusenevo (Volokolamsk district of the Moscow region) from a fragment of a German mine released by mortars, General Ivan Panfilov was killed. From the memoirs of Marshal Mikhail Katukov (at that time, the colonel of the Red Army):

On the morning of November 18, two dozen tanks and motorized infantry chains again began to surround the village of Gusenevo. Here at this time was the command post of Panfilov - a hastily open dugout next to the peasant's hut. The Germans fired mortars at the village, but the fire was not aimed, and they did not pay attention to it. Panfilov received a group of Moscow correspondents. When he was informed of an enemy tank attack, he hurried from the dugout to the street. It was followed by other employees of the division headquarters. Before Panfilov climbed the last step of the dugout, a mine crashed nearby. General Panfilov began to slowly sink to the ground. He was picked up in his arms. So, without regaining consciousness, he died in the arms of his fighting comrades. They examined the wound: it turned out that a tiny fragment pierced the temple.

Historians have discovered evidence of the death of General Panfilov from a direct witness - Guard lieutenant Dmitry Lavrinenko, known as the most effective tanker of the Great Patriotic War. For 28 tank battles in the first months of the war, Dmitry Lavrinenko destroyed 52 enemy tanks. It is noted that the tanker was shocked by the death of the general. Exactly one month later (18 December 1941 of the year), Lavrinenko himself will die from the German fragment. Only in 1990 will he be awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union posthumously.

The title of Hero of the Soviet Union was posthumously received by General I.V. Panfilov himself. It happened in April 1942.

The merits of the division of General Panfilov in their reports noted and the German command. It is known that the division that received the rank of Panfilov was noted by German General Erich Hepner. Having suffered defeat in the battles with the division of the RCA, Göpner will write that "these soldiers are not afraid of death, do not surrender and are ready to fight to the end, not paying attention to the statutes or rules of warfare."

The soldiers of the division, which was multinational, called Ivan Vasilyevich Panfilov "the father-commander", talking about trusting relationships and the complete absence of Panfilov any kind of general arrogance. The soldiers added that the extraordinary decisions of Panfilov as commander were a real headache for the enemy.

Oh yes, I'm sorry comrades, I will express myself.

Somehow I watch TV and there is a film with a claim to historical authenticity, I watch and understand that it carries such a fake from the film but could not catch and catch it before the episode where the Red Army men line up for collective photography.
They started to pose, take poses, facial expressions ..... and I realized that this is my / my 20-year-old oblique tribes make photos for instagram.
You yourself look at the photo of the grandfathers, the fathers of those times, they have all the "pose" in the eyes.

PS.
This is to say that something like this, there are no complaints about the "tribes", but these low-grade directors, part of our glamorous and grilled bohemia like Raikin, who watered power with slops and who were not given a banderlop in Odessa at the end.

[VALERIK_097]

And, what did YOU personally do so that your "tribes" would begin to understand the word "feat of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers"
My Family lost all the men who went to war. Only grandmothers remained in memory who raised the future Fathers and Mothers from whom we descended.
On May 8, every year, I come to the Valley of Glory (Death) in the Murmansk region.
May 9, crawling with children (on insurance) 293 meters on the hill (for which about 5000 people died)
The soldiers did not have a mountain climber, but nevertheless we climb everything.

[34 region]

Primoos Today, 10:28. On June 22, 1941, as it turned out, not everyone was strangled. There were self-confident who ignored the orders of Stalin. They got out in the 90s. The situations of 1918, 1941, 90 are similar. But the result is different. Then they fought back, today they gave up. They talk a lot about memory. But it seems that modern power only remembers princes, kings. Maybe I'm wrong. But what events were in memory of the Soviet commanders? How do they remember the Soviet commanders on May 9? Who remembers the Supreme? No, of course, some memory events are held in WWII. But the general concept !? We are slowly reformatted through Overton's Windows. While this seems not very noticeable. But there is a shift. Removed the figures of Lenin, Stalin, the commanders of the USSR. Slip on the figures of princes (nuclear powered ships). A comparison of Hitler and Stalin? Stalin is an analogue of Hitler! But why then do Hitler’s ideas bloom on the outskirts? Why are the ideas of Stalin in the pen? Or is Stalin worse than Hitler? And after all, Russia is following the West! Why do not we oppose Nazism with socialism ??? Nazism West cultivates. And who cultivates socialism? Looking around the Soviet past, we come out to agree with the West !? They and we harass Stalin. Whose goal are we playing? My comment is off topic? And if you think about it? Then we resisted integration into the West at the cost of life. Today?! What is the miscalculation of Hitler's puppeteers? They trampled on the war. In the 90s they did it smart. They choked chewing gum. And what did Russia contrast with chewing gum? Nothing! The situation, the Indians and glass beads in exchange for gold, repeated. Now in the role of the Indians was Russia. Why am I? Through Overton Windows, we are reformatted. This reformatting can be seen by anyone. As an example, the outskirts. That's where the reboot is! You can of course neighing over them. But in fact ??? We are not far from them and are even trying to catch up with them. I do not overshadow the past. Just comparing. Comparison is not in our (modern) favor. Very sad and sad.

[osoboye_mneniye]

It is a pity that not everyone sees this. They found the necessary buttons among the Russian population - self-esteem, vanity, trustfulness and self-confidence. This is just a treasure for carrying out manipulations. It is enough to make it clear to people that in exchange for tolerance of historical truth, nurtured by illiteracy, they will certainly become patriots, benefactors and arbiters of the destinies of the world and will be endeared by the authorities, and people have already turned into a malleable dough. They can let off steam on forums, can proclaim themselves by anyone - they will agree with them. But at the same time they will continue to sculpt vegetables from them - a helpless uneducated electorate. Now it is at the state level that terrible things are being done. The guards ribbons are renamed to St. George, the Soviet people to Russian, instead of science and historical symbols they slip religion with crosses, the black deeds of the enemies of our country are dressed in good intentions, of those who raised our country from their knees, they do villains, they drape carefully.
This is true all over the world. As soon as the people give real power to the Vikings and cease to care about their future, they forget their past and surrender. Without remembering and not knowing your past, it is impossible to take a step into the future.

I don’t know if there is a Panfilov division in our army, but the fact that such a division should be with us is the same truth as the presence of Russia on this planet! !! And the “Panfilovites” showed the Nazis that it was impossible to defeat the Soviet soldier — they could only be killed! !! Honor to the general and praise for the fact that he simply fulfilled his duty to the country and the people, he fulfilled like many, at the cost of his life! !!!!

It is known that the rank of Panfilov’s division was noted by German General Erich Gepner. Having been defeated in battles with the RRKA division, Gepner writes that "these soldiers are not afraid of death, do not surrender and are ready to fight to the end, not paying attention to the charters or rules of warfare."
On January 8, 1942, his 6th Army Corps came under heavy return fire. As commander Erich Gepner decides to retreat, despite a clear order to fight to the death. Such self-will was unacceptable - the general was dismissed from the ranks of the Wehrmacht with shame. In addition, Gepner is deprived of all awards and merit, which becomes the greatest blow to his pride.
After everything that happened to the general, he can justify himself in all words.

[Bakht]

Gepner cannot justify himself for a long time. Hanged by order of Hitler in 1944

He was hanged on another occasion, in the conspiracy of 1944.

[Bakht]

Göpner was not, as is often claimed, put on trial by a military tribunal, and at the end of June he was dismissed from the ground forces and then, as a retired colonel general, lived on an unrestricted pension, occupying his former government official apartment. Schmundt interpreted the Führer's directive that the Göpner family should be provided, in full favor of the Colonel General.
