After Victory Day, grass, grow!

51
As we, on the eve of 9 May, begins to spin the wheel of patriotic hysteria, everyone can see. Someone likes it, someone not. Unfortunately, there are more and more unicellular organisms every day, it’s about those who are not interested in why the monuments in P or N are littered with snow and no one is cleaning them, but they are ready to rip off their voice, proving that if anyone should take a shovel and remove the snow, so this is the one who wrote.





However, I allow myself to disagree with such a statement of the question. But more about that later, but for now, in essence.

Working on the material, we visited the memorial at the Shilovsky bridgehead. Yes, the urban district is the city of Voronezh, Sovetsky district.

The memorial complex is set in honor and memory of those warriors who stormed these heights in the 1943 year. It was very difficult and very bloody. The losses were huge.

Monument, mass grave, belfry (all that remains of the village of Shilovo) - until recently, all this was located in the territory subject to the unfinished (by the decision of the city residents) nuclear heating station.

Life in this facility was warming insofar as. But the station was guarded, wishing to profit (and there were enough of them) metal was regularly beaten off the monument, the monuments were looked after and renewed.

And this year, thunder hit a clear sky. The city administration announced a competition for the destruction of the station building.

That the object is interfering is understandable. It will be difficult to disassemble, but how many years already (since 1990 has been standing), how the construction is stopped, and it is clear that it will not resume again.

And here I am in the memorial.

So far, more or less, traces of the recent repair are visible to the naked eye on the obelisk, but see for yourself what the site is like - see for yourself.


















[center] The inscriptions on the stone with the burial are almost invisible.




[/ Center]
It is completely incomprehensible what kind of grave it is. No identification marks, nothing.

I understand that, according to the administrations (the city of Voronezh, the Soviet district and the village of Shilovo), everything is going as it should. In general, traces of mowing are visible if you look closely. Perhaps before Victory Day, perhaps even when, but it was.

Why the city does not want to allocate 1 (ONE) person with a mower and eggplant gasoline, I do not understand. After all, the maintenance and cleaning of ALL monuments is included in the city budget.

Probably because this place is not visited as Victory Square or the Glory Monument. Newlyweds do not come here, and practically do not drive excursions. Previously, the place was generally almost closed, while something was happening at the station. And on the other hand, a very steep climb - 300 meters. Only for steep SUVs that have dashed a visible road through the monument.

Have fun.

As I understand it, the memorial is doomed. Rosenergoatom will leave - that's all. There will be no one to protect and cultivate. And everything will finally deteriorate and will become desolate. And the monument will be dismantled for metal, the benefit of trepidations was abundant.

And the monument is unique. There are only two of them in the world - this one in China too. This is not casting, this is chasing. Minted workers VASO. With love.

What's next?

Next, back to the beginning. The farther from the war, the harder it will be. Veterans are leaving, and for new generations this war is generally an empty phrase. They are her on the "Tundra" and "Ghouls" are. All over. And consider themselves specialists.

Hysteria, but I have no other word, which is fanned by May 9, it then passes. And everything returns to square one. As they say. even though the grass does not grow. But here's the problem: the grass is just growing! Through slabs, through granite and marble.

And now many will say: what to sit! Darted, took a scythe, mowed the grass - and you will be well done! And in winter, snow can be removed. And we will like you. As it should be. Let's throw the Odobrymsovs from the heart.

Feel what we're going for? Do not like it - do it yourself! Begin with yourself! Take the civic initiative!

Well yes. The child is sick, but does the poor state have no money for him? Nothing, we will collect by SMS and send it to the USA. They will fix it there. Missing person? It’s not a question, we have a lot of volunteers, they’ll come out and find. Why bother the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Emergencies, right?

Do you want the monument to be safe and sound? So repair and protect!

And so, as some people criticize from sofas, arranging Internet obstructions with likes and dislikes, doing nothing at all, that’s how officials want to live. On the couch. So that no one would strain them, but things were going. At the very civic initiative.

On which they treat children, bring them up, instill in them love for their homeland, and so on.

And they, our boyars, will simply rejoice for the people. On the couch. In his office. True, at our expense, because they live on our taxes. Well, those who pay. I’m crying because a journalist, by virtue of the specifics of his work, has the right to ask: what will we do with memory and patriotism, gentlemen?

As Putin said in a May Xnumx speech on Red Square? "We will always remember the great feat of our ancestors." As?

All that I would like to say at the end is to repeat the appeal that is stamped on the monument.

People, remember! 9 May does not end memory and respect for our ancestors-winners.

    So who is in power now? Gauleiters .. Appearance creates a patriotic, but in fact .. their affairs can be listed for a long time ..
    Feel what we're going for? Do not like it - do it yourself! Begin with yourself! Take the civic initiative!

    It is very familiar, in this vein, many commentators speak out .. and all this from the same "opera" is shifting onto the shoulders of citizens everything that is possible and even already and cannot be shifted .. Taiga is burning .. yeah, let the population fold and get insurance .The state gradually removes all responsibility from itself .. Only here the question of Zh. Alferov sounds more and more urgent .. Why do we need such a state?

        Here he is, we have seen, again wants the local residents to guard the monument and take care of it. The author directly wrote that officials from the budget allocated money for the maintenance of the monument, Vadim ignored this and began to spread demagoguery to us, saying that the people owe it themselves, and that the money was stolen, he instantly forgot the work. Vadim read the article and did not understand anything, or maybe he understood everything, but decided to pretend to be a "bag" and further. Who, if not Vadim, will defend the officials here?

      You are right, colleague!
      The "state" everywhere "washes its hands" where it is necessary to invest and throws off any responsibility, leaving itself only the functions of disposing of resources at its discretion, "shearing the flock" and returning "lost sheep" to it. And the demand from such a "state" as from the holy fool.

      There are more questions here than it seems ... who will educate the youth? young people see everything perfectly and understand that in this society, patriotic education is not relevant and not appropriate, money is the main thing .. who will Sechin and Miller show as a personal example of young people? Here, at first, the state should "get sick" with socialism; together with the socialist idea, morality will begin to revive ..

        This socialism has been given to you. Under socialism, in my small homeland, the mass grave was simply sung, dismantling a monument before it. And they reported that the remains of the fighters were transferred to the district center, although no one even tried to exhume any remains. And it was in the reign of war veteran Brezhnev. Now the monuments, by the way, are more well-groomed than thirty years ago.

I will not list now, you are not the first day on the site and you know what I mean .. In the new socialism there will be a place for all social layers and everyone will be happy, but now only middle and large officials are satisfied, and the management of "state" enterprises that belong to the "national" property .. and yes, the only one who is guaranteed to "suffer" is just this management, which is I set up castles in all parts of the planet and bought the largest yachts in the world ..

          Once studied the tragedy of the 2nd army of Vlasov. Not from the point of view of strategy and tactics, but from the point of view of the attitude of the USSR authorities towards the fallen. In an Internet there is a lot of evidence of bacchanalia. The Moscow-Petersburg highway is built on the bones of warriors who are not to blame for the treachery of their commander, and they are treated as traitors

            Vlasov actually has almost no relation to the tragedy of the 2nd shock. He took command after the army under the "genius" command of Klykov was already trapped. Vlasov's betrayal is a completely different story. Now many fighters of the 2nd Shock have already been raised, and back in the 80s they were lying almost on the surface in the vicinity of Myasny Bor. Search and burial began to be actively engaged only in the 90s.

        I passed one four-story building with four entrances, a stalinka building in the center of Ryazan. There is a sign - "A veteran of the Great Patriotic War lives in this house ...". One! The whole four-story building! As a child, I did not know a family in which my father did not fight.
        Memory! It is important. Therefore, even my three-year-old granddaughter held both orders and a funeral in her hands. So far, some orders, they are heavy.

    The impression is that the author flew from the moon. Like "everything is fine with us, only the problem with monuments." And the fact that old men and women, grandchildren and granddaughters of the winners were sentenced to death and illness without pensions. What is it? Soldiers and officers gave their lives to live: children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Winners. So enough to direct the shadow on the fence.

    I am talking about this. An adult daughter, aware of all those events, no problems. But with a granddaughter, and she is 15 years old, problems arise. As I understand it, the primary source plays a very important role in upbringing, and they have already died. I wrote correctly, not in upbringing, but in the veracity of the presentation of historical events. With upbringing, everything is fine and sometimes she can explain why the grandfather does not publish in German cars ...

    Today drove through Rzhev. The earth is saturated with the blood of soldiers per meter. But one does not feel that there were fights. In St. Petersburg - it is felt, in Rzhev - no. There is not a single eternal flame in the settlements. Maybe there is, but I have not seen. There were no fights in Sergiev Posad (Zagorsk), but there is eternal flame. And he never went out, in spite of any democracy. And in Rzhev they were limited to such signs - although this is necessary, although there is a tank and a cannon (I don’t remember the rocket launcher - in the Rzhev district or Shakhovsky).

    The memorial does not bring income, but now, in the spirit of the new ideology, everything should bring in income .. You cannot tune in money from memory ... expenses are not foreseen alone .. The whole so-called patriotism fits into the following: the inscription on the car "Thank you grandfather for the victory! ", in a Turkish resort to stuff the face of the Germans on May 9, and in an orderly order to come to the rally on May 9, be sure to wear a St. George's ribbon, otherwise organizational conclusions will follow, prizes will be deprived ... and believe me they will be deprived ... and in the report, how many people participated in the action regiment "... The first time everything was fine, no formalism, spiritual enthusiasm ... and the second time they wrote down their full name and address, made a remark why I have four photographs on my dashboard, and not one, they say, one photograph is more eye-catching, I need to like everyone else .. I clenched my teeth, kept silent, but stopped participating, some kind of 30-year-old mumra will still indicate to me .. And from the edge of the news went to the center, see what level of patriotism we have .. It goes wild ... And even the "red trackers" have approximately established the place of death of the girls ek - pilots of "night witches", unfortunately I do not remember the names anymore .. During labor lessons they made an obelisk of tin, at a cannery they welded a fence for us, the Semenovodchesky state farm, agreed to install an obelisk at this place, even helped, planted scarlet roses, cut the grass ..We looked after .. until we finished school .. we dispersed .. passed by inheritance ... then .. the obelisk went to a distant cordon of memory .. like the school museum, which we organized ..
