Women's Day. Paul is beautiful but not weak
The first spring holiday has come. And let the climatic spring in most regions of Russia have problems such that it is time to talk about February 37, and not March 8, but it is still encouraging when there is someone to provide true spring breath - warm, gentle, warming. These are our beloved women, our second half - beautiful and beloved. Our dear ones, this is your holiday, with which we most certainly hurry to congratulate you!
Due to the specifics of “Military Review”, it is difficult to call an information resource where a female audience makes up a large percentage. But nevertheless, we have real fighting girlfriends who daily delight the male part with their articles and comments. The feminine look is a look that is often sobering and gives an opportunity to look at the problems under discussion from a completely different angle.
To call women of our time the weaker sex would be strange. But why only in our time. The woman is not only the keeper of the hearth, although it is serious work to keep the home hearth while providing comfort. Women have long been on a par with men ensure the inviolability of the borders of the Fatherland, serving in the ranks of the Armed Forces and other law enforcement agencies of Russia. Women gain a victory in sporting events, which, given current realities, is akin to participation in hostilities - against the backdrop of the war that is unleashed against Russia even in the field of sports and near-sports affairs.
And after all, the very phrase “Women are our heroes” is far from a figure of speech. Since 1992, the title of Hero of Russia has been awarded to 17 women of excellent sex. And on this day, it will not be superfluous to recall their names:
17-year-old Marina Plotnikova from the Penza region. Awarded for the salvation of three drowned children (posthumously). Marina is the first Hero of Russia among women and the youngest Hero of the Russian Federation among both sexes.
