Memories of the Unconquered: in the year of the 75 anniversary of the complete lifting of the siege of Leningrad

The sky is gloomy, clouds of lead, Nazi planes appear in the sky and dump a deadly cargo onto the streets of the city. Cold, hunger, snow. What hope for the best can be in such conditions, - any of us could say today. But we are not at all the people who have withstood all these ordeals, we cannot put in their heads their way of thinking, their faith in themselves, their incredible desire to live, create, love - even when the word "survive" is barely suitable.

In 2019, 75 years have passed since the lifting of the Leningrad blockade - one of the worst troubles in stories our whole country. Almost 900 days of stamina and incredible courage.

On the channels "History" and "Russia" a film was released, which is called the 901 day. The film presents the evidence of those who went through all the horrors of the blockade, who every day then, in Leningrad, waited and hoped for a speedy Victory. Waited and waited.

It should be noted that the artistic image realized in the film is a combination of archival filming of the 1940's and shots from the modern life of the unconquered city and the city of the unconquered.

Piskaryovskoye Memorial Cemetery

One of the heroes of the film:

Today, all these houses do not remember what happened to them. And I remember ...

The artist transfers his thoughts and his pain to the canvas to convey the memory of the blockade events to new generations. Link to the movie.

Today, all these houses do not remember what happened to them. And I remember ...

This was told to me by my grandmother, who survived the blockade in the house number 37 square. 481 Vyborgsky prospect (where the Vyborgsky department store is).

The great feat of Leningrad and Leningrad.

[Uncle lee]

Let's drink to those who commanded the companies
Who was dying in the snow,
Who made the way through swamps to Leningrad,
Breaking the throat of the enemy!

[Alexga]

In 2014, my father was awarded this award by the Embassy of the Russian Federation in the Republic of Belarus as a participant in those events. Alas, he has been gone for 2 years.

[Petrograd]

Bright memory to him ... and Thank you from me that I am alive ....

That is not to speak and write, renamed, but for St. Petersburg it is LENINGRAD!
And it’s not Lenin’s business, but the people who fought and died in this city.

And I say to my granddaughter - Leningrad.

[horus88]

Are you from the banks of the Neva? My grandmother, a blockade, always said “Peter” if the conversation was not about the times of the USSR. The feat of Leningraders will remain for centuries, and, in my opinion, it is very good that now we are Petersburgers. Because, we are not the ones who survived the blockade. They are Leningraders, they are heroes. Before them were St. Petersburg, after them, too, St. Petersburg.

Your set of letters and punctuation marks is not clear. Learn to write your "brain-pushing" correctly. Respect for your grandmother, but it is unlikely that she found Petrograd and St. Petersburg -

Honestly, it's not clear what you were trying to convey. Looks like Klitschko's "opus" "about tomorrow" ...

What's incomprehensible ... "We are not the ones who survived the blockade. They are Leningraders, they are heroes." An honest position of a person who does not pretend to be someone else's feat.

since when did the Leningraders and their feat become alien and alien to the new Russia and the "new Petersburgers". Vasily, where is the honest position of a citizen of the Russian Federation?

If you are jarred by the word "alien", replace "alien feat" with "feat of other people."

So simple ... Only now my grandfather is not a different person and not a stranger. In 1943 he died. What to do, Vasya?

Your grandfather is a different person. Believe me. Just because he was a hero does not mean that you yourself are a hero.

It’s when you stand at the grandfather’s grave 60 years after death and you feel it, then you’ll say

So that you (among others) live, fight and work, many people unknown to you. And one of them was your grandfather. One of them, but just one. Remember this.

I agree, it was another, more cruel time. And in the attack, the tank did not go, and in the bayonet was not. But ... the memory, and the memories of my grandmother, do not forget this (provided that not and m..z (I apologize for the mate). I'm not a hero, at 99 I just served in the fleet of the KCHF and had a chance to see Yugoslavia, and what the "democratic hawks" have done there, according to the Oath, he served. It became clear what would have happened to the USSR and the Russians, do not fight back.

That’s horseradish (there is such a root, it has a sharp taste), Vasya. I will, like most members of the forum fight, with attempts to whitewash Nazism and fascism, while alive and physiologically I can. And I will live with Memory and Gratitude-Fallen, but hatred for "these"

Well, they write at least the answer, but not the text, by the way, where is it text-Vasya, where is the text ... Vaska, where is the text, maybe the answer "pearls" repeat-Vasya and Vasya. Yes, and we are not familiar with you to poke around.

Vasya, don’t mess with horseradish, answer ... Vasya, take the horseradish out of your mouth, answer.

That's exactly what, Sashok, I expected - that you would turn out to be an ordinary gopnik. Not without tearful pathos about grandfathers and memory, but, in general, an ordinary gopnik.

I appeal to the "interlocutor" as he "deserves". Not smart, not educated, unable to answer the question "being-Vaska" - only "deserved" this. Apparently your nickname emphasizes your worldview Good _An (they can be crossed out) mustache You are Good_An (crossed out) mustache, something else you can answer or what?

Good_Anonymus (Vasily)! Our grandfathers and fathers survived the blockade and won the Great Patriotic War of 1941. This is not only theirs, but our holiday, as the successors of their cause to protect their Fatherland from all enemies in the world ...

[Petrograd]

As for the Petersburgers, they were different, to be honest. Only now, many were so glad when Carlos Mannerheim was hanged a memorial plaque, well, of course, he is also a Petersburger and a general of the Russian army, all a brave Swedish or Finnish "patriot". Leningraders - it's a pity and heart aches, they die ...
"we are Petersburgers" - with bright words and clothes
with a ribbon of St. George on a bag, on slack and greasy pants
Braided in unwashed hair
They shout only once a year, on the red days of the calendar,
Or at the behest of the tsar, "we are Petersburgers"
We are "chosen" we are "cool" ...
A lot of bread and cookies
It turns out their expiration date
You carry them into the slop, "we are Petersburgers"
Boasting no knowledge of history
Careless and down
Haughty eyes and sebaceous lips
Blossom - Peter
Forgetting the City of St. Peter.
"we are Petersburgers" you shout in euphoria
And what did you save and increase? ...
Leningrad suddenly became
The "unnecessary cost" of Victory
I ask you, "we are patriots of St. Petersburg"
Do not turn bread and words into garbage
Come to the silent elderly
Share the "unnecessary" bread ...
And thank Leningraders, thank you
That in the 21st century shout "we are Petersburgers" ...

Of course, it is better to be silent. I think Leningrad was saved by an innate culture of communication, respect for each other.
