Beat him! Reconstruction of the battles for the liberation of Kiev
The final and most spectacular event of the Give Kiev 2013 military festival was the reconstruction of one of the battles to liberate Kiev from the Nazi invaders, in which about 1500 people took part, as well as more than 30 units of auto, mototechnics, artillery, and Tanks and airplanes.
This year, the battle dedicated to the 70 anniversary of the liberation of Kiev, took place not on the traditional field in Pirogovo, but in the Sitnyaki tract in Troyeschina. This was done in order to complement the reconstruction of the crossing over the river, because the Kiev operation 1943 of the year began with the forcing of the Dnieper by Soviet troops.
In today's report, you can see the events of this battle not from the spectator area, but through the eyes of one of the participants directly on the battlefield, in the trenches and melee fights ..


2. The liberation of Kiev took place in the late autumn of 1943. For this purpose, it was supposed to strike two blows - a main blow from the Bukrin bridgehead in 80 km south of Kiev and an auxiliary blow from bridgeheads north of Kiev. In October, the strike force concentrated on the Bukrin bridgehead twice launched an offensive. However, the enemy defense was too strong. It became clear that it is difficult to expect success here. Therefore, it was decided to transfer the main efforts from Bukrin to the Lutezh springboard, and from here to send the main blow to the south.
To implement this, the Soviet troops, using long nights and morning fogs, crossed from the Bukrinsky bridgehead to the left bank of the Dnieper, along which the coast passed about two hundred kilometers to the north, and then again crossed the river to the Lyutezhsky bridgehead.


3. The notorious forcing of the Dnieper for the liberation of cities located on the left bank laid a huge number of our soldiers.
People were virtually defenseless against artillery, machine guns and aviation during the time when they crossed the Dnieper in boats, rafts and all that could swim ...
Even during the reconstruction, when there was no real bombing, it was clear how rafts and boats with infantry were moving slowly and vulnerable.
It is terrible to imagine what was happening in reality that November 1943 year


4. In November 2013 of the year, exactly 70 years later, the marines and assault forces of the Red Army landed on sandy beaches, where they immediately fell under the barrage of the first German defense line

What you do not want to leave behind the scenes, because humor and curiosity always have a place to be.

Reconstruction is no exception. Moreover, as I have been observing not for the first year, the reenactors are still funny people.

    Sailors against the soldiers of the "Viking" division and beat the nemchuru!
    in this case it was probably better to shout "Beat the lights!"

    It was somehow a toy, It has long been. either according to Tolkien, or according to a novel - it doesn’t matter. The last day, the main action should be according to the script. And I fell into the carrion, as luck would have it! I sit myself counting minutes, I counted a lot. Suddenly I see, next to the carrion in the camp, a guy sits and darnes chain mail torn along, THREADS !!! I am in shock, I continue to watch. Well, he carelessly darned that way (if only he had not fallen) and picks up a shield, from which the extreme piece has been broken! I think what will do with it? The guy, meanwhile, takes the breadcrumbs and begins to close up the hole ... I don’t understand anything ... I’m breaking the wizard out of the carrion early (to trace this weirdo). Let me remind you that the main action is about to happen! At this time, the guy puts chain mail on his Naked body, takes his sword and shield in his hands, and quickly goes to the battlefield! I follow him.
    And now the picture: between two hills about 2 people gathered. About equally on both sides. Everything is in tension, now the most important thing will be a mess !!! And here! He runs out onto the hill to the hero. IS A WILD YEEP, (naturally all the attention of all 200 is immediately on him), BITS A SHIELD AND SPITS OUT A PIECE, SCREAMS ONCE AGAIN, TOMES ON HIMSELF AND RUNS THIS CROWD !!!
    To be honest, I have never seen such frightened Tolkienists!
