Day of the people's feat of the formation of the Ural Volunteer Tank Corps during the Great Patriotic War

20
March 11 is a special date in the calendar of military holidays and anniversaries. The fact is that 11 March is exactly how date in the military calendar Russia appeared at the suggestion of not federal authorities or all-Russian public associations, but on the basis of a regional initiative. We are talking about the initiative of the governor of the Sverdlovsk region, according to which (the initiative) in 2012, he proposed to perpetuate the feat of the Urals to form a volunteer tank corps during the Great Patriotic War.

From the governor’s decree:
Set the significant date of the Sverdlovsk region "Day of the people's feat of the formation of the Ural Volunteer Tank Corps during the Great Patriotic War" and celebrate it annually on March 11.


In 1942, in the Urals, an idea arose to create national funds tank body. It was on public funds - from the state budget, which experienced tremendous pressure during the Great Patriotic War, that a penny was not spent on the formation of the tank corps.

In 1943, the idea of ​​the Ural workers was brought to life. As part of the Red Army, the 10 Panzer Division appeared, which later became the name of the Guards Ural-Lviv, Order of the October Revolution Red Banner, the Order of Suvorov and Kutuzov, a volunteer, named after Marshal Malinovsky.

Day of the people's feat of the formation of the Ural Volunteer Tank Corps during the Great Patriotic War


The equipment of the tank corps was carried out by workers of three regions: Molotovskaya (now the Perm Territory), Sverdlovsk and Chelyabinsk. Workers worked above the norm and made voluntary contributions. In the Wehrmacht division called the "Black Knives". This name is due to the fact that tankers received more than 3,3 thousands of special knives as a gift from workers of Zlatoust.

It should be noted that applications for admission to the volunteer corps were submitted by almost 115 thousands of workers, of whom about 10 thousands were selected at the first stage. Many of them subsequently joined the tank division, having passed the appropriate training.



Since 2013, the holiday has been celebrated not only in the Sverdlovsk Region, but throughout Russia as an example of the people’s selfless labor for the good of the Motherland.

    in Perm, as a monument, we have a rare copy of the T-34-76 with a stamped tower-nut. T-34-76 generally survived very little, they were all ground in the war. T-34-85 are universally used as monuments, moreover, as a rule, post-war or modernized in the 50 years. And we have a rarity. good

    The creation of the Corps is unique in itself.
    - on their own money, but there wasn’t much of it at all ...
    - in their free time, although they plowed in three shifts ...
    - 10 contest for people in the Corps, although everyone had a reservation ...

    As a result, a division of professional tankers was formed, and not just a militia.
    It costs a lot.
    Incidentally, the division is being opposed at the moment, pulling out equipment from BHVT and filling the staff - that’s the most important thing.
    Yes

    A landmark monument of the Ural volunteer corps. For everyone who knows:
    Railway station of Yekaterinburg, "under the mitten".
    RESPECT...

      competition of 10 people for a place in the Corps, although everyone had a reservation ...
      They were allowed to go to the front only if they prepared a replacement for themselves at the plant and prepared and went to the front.
      And do not eat on the canaries of grouse.
      God forbid now that everything, managers and effective managers will be like a cat in the slots.
