71-th anniversary of the Great Victory

279
Today, the country celebrates the 71 anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War - the bloodiest war in stories Russia (USSR), and in the history of all mankind. Millions of claimed lives and crippled destinies, thousands of destroyed villages, villages and cities, a blow to the infrastructure of a huge country. The strength of the enemy was colossal, but the Nazi beast, having met a truly heroic resistance, was eventually defeated. The Soviet people made the greatest feat in history, confirming that there is no force that could break the popular will, based on true unity and the right cause.

The inimitable voice of Yuri Levitan heralded the Great Victory, which waited long 1418 days and which gave the multinational power a powerful impetus to development.



For many years it was not customary to say that the victory of the May of 1945 is not only the victory over Nazi Germany. Other countries were also going to conquer the Soviet people, each of which at one time joined the Hitler coalition. Hungary, Italy, Romania, Finland, Bulgaria, and Slovakia had their own views on the conquest of the Soviet Union. Parts and formations from Spain, Norway, Croatia, Denmark, and France fought against the Soviet soldiers. Thus, the 638 th French Infantry Regiment is officially considered to be the only foreign formation of the Wehrmacht, which, together with German forces, led the attack on Moscow in the 1941 year. In addition to the French proper, the 638 French Infantry Regiment included representatives of numerous French colonies - Arabs and Africans. This is to the fact that much more often in the historiography of the Great Patriotic War the evidence of the participation in the war of the French fighter aviation regiment “Normandie-Neman” (on the side of the USSR) is mentioned, but of the French who, under the guise of fighting Bolshevism, crossed the borders of the Soviet Union to contribute its bloody contribution to the spread of fascist contagion, to mention it was, as they say in certain circles, politically incorrect.

Victory Day is celebrated around the world - and this is not a figure of speech. Thanks to enthusiasts, volunteers, employees of Russian diplomatic missions and cultural celebration centers and memorial exhibitions held in Beijing (China), Doha (Qatar), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Riga (Latvia), Berlin (Germany), Sofia (Bulgaria) and other cities. An increasing number of people are joining the action "Immortal Regiment", which aims to preserve the memory of each of those who approached the Great Victory. The organizers of the action in Moscow alone on the march of the "Immortal Regiment" are waiting for at least half a million people! The processions with portraits of participants of the war took place in Ireland, Spain, Sweden, Italy. Russian diplomats, representatives of emigrant communities entered with the portraits of their relatives, veterans on the streets of cities in Europe, Asia and Latin America.

71-th anniversary of the Great Victory


Traditionally, military parades are held in Russian cities, in which the main participants are the people who forged victory on enemies at the front and in the rear.

Preparation for the Victory Parade in Voronezh (a tribune for veterans and officials is set up in the city center):



Considerable interest is the passage during the Victory Parade of military equipment. Last year, the attention of literally the entire interested world was focused on the appearance of the latest Russian armored vehicles on Red Square in Moscow, including the T-14 tank on the Armata platform.



These Tanks take part in a military parade today.

"Military Review" congratulates all our readers on the main holiday of our country - Victory Day!

          All veterans of the Second World War with a holiday! Happy Victory Day!
          We remember about you! Thank you! We take an example from you to love and courageously defend your homeland!

          I have not seen war.
          Lyrics Sergey Golovkov
          I did not see the war, but I felt the roots of horror.
          From the stories of his father that he tirelessly kept repeating about her.
          As bloody puddles appeared on white snow,
          The lamentation of widows, and the ridge of nameless graves.
          There the earth was buzzing, torn with pain and groan,
          An annoying whistle pressed hard in his head.
          Every bush of grass, every stone served as an icon,
          Where merging with the earth, they prayed to an ominous fate.

          I did not see the war - it was only her fault before us:
          For the suffering of those who lie on the battlefield.
          These are those who took the trouble with their bayonets,
          Imprisoning your life forever under immortal granite.
          These are those who did not spare themselves rising to their full height,
          Who rushed to the bunker, raising the attackers.
          Who walked half of Europe to the hackneyed ground cuddling,
          For the freedom of their sons, mothers and fathers.

          I didn’t see the war, but from the stories I told a lot
          Like once a little man from a burning hut, in his arms,
          Yes, under a centuries-old oak tree, on the grass, wrapped in a blanket ...
          Only tears around, gave rise to anxiety and fear.
          Like a sudden plaque tickled over tense nerves.
          Like a parental home, it looked like a flaming stack.
          And I’ve probably never performed a song
          If the oak were centuries old, I did not save me from the death of my father.

              Happy Victory Day!
              An unknown two-year-old kid welcomes troops of marching soldiers at the rehearsal of the 2015 parade of the year to celebrate Victory Day on 9 May.
              And the harsh military, one by one, without saying a word, also gave the Russian patriot kid a military greeting.
              This patriotic video has successfully circulated the whole world! And the Western media immediately declared that this was allegedly a special production of Putin's propagandists. In fact, this was a child's spontaneous manifestation of pride in OUR country, for YOUR veterans, Victory and sincerely with all my heart!

                When the child grows up, he will be surprised how our Motherland managed to break the ridge of ALL CONTINENTAL EUROPE!?! After all, this is impossible in principle! He will clearly imagine what would happen if tsarist Russia alone fought at least a dozen countries - Germany, France and Austria-Hungary. Well, now, this is on his unconscious level.

                  Yes! You are absolutely right! He now showed it at the level of the unconscious, but not only. Indeed, the unconscious is formed by the upbringing and psychological mood of the masses, as well as the inspiration of the servicemen themselves.
                  By the way. The boy was found by the journalists of the Central Television of the Russian Federation and was invited to meet with the audience in the studio at the Central Heating Center of Russia with his mother and older brother. And from the commander-in-chief of the 9 parade on May 2015, he and his brother were even given special gifts.

              I'm proud of my grandfather -
              Soviet soldier
              He returned with a victory
              From the war to the forty-fifth!
              Ever bloody battles
              Where the war rumbled
              And his fatherland
              How I met a hero!
              Grandfather was young and brave
              He fought bravely -
              He did not spare life
              In the battle with the power of the enemy.
              May earth again
              And in the spring the children are happy
              Grandpa, put on
              Battle rewards!
              Let everyone see now
              How the Order of Glory burns
              Order for Budapest
              And a medal for Warsaw!
              In honor of Russian soldiers
              Great Victory Day

              Darkness
              entered the Immortal regiment with the icon of Nikolai the Bloody. What is in her brain?

              Poklonskaya surprised the entire social network and the media with this!
              As a lawyer, she may be competent. But in this case, she found herself as a political provocateur for an inter-religious situation in multi-confessional Russia. There is no and cannot be any justification for this as a high-ranking government official (she was in uniform).
              Poklonskaya by convictions is a monarchist and clericalist of the Russian Orthodox Church in a multiconfessional SOVIET country according to the Constitution !!! Her actions contradict the idea of ​​the "Immortal Regiment" parade itself, since she makes by her actions a substitution of the concepts of his civil plan. She is an awesome politician! She needed at least not to wear a uniform, but to go in civilian clothes as a private person. As they say - either remove the cross, or put on panties!
              Poklonskaya simply spoke out at the Immortal Regiment parade against the SVETSKY and Soviet past of the RF state - for the creeping clericalization of the Russian Orthodox Church and the monarchy in the country, which is opposed by the overwhelming majority in the country. And this is in a MANY-confessional country - the Russian Federation. Poklonskaya and Russian monarchists, apparently, is not enough, an example of a religious war in the Syrian Arab Republic against the secular constitutional system under the leadership of Assad? Do you want to rock the boat in Russia from the inside? Then why don't we, the Russians, care about such an "Immortal Regiment" if blood will again flow in the country because of him!
              Moreover, the actions of Poklonskaya at the 2016 Immortal Regiment parade of the year are fully consistent with the Harvard and Houston projects of the United States to dismember and destroy Russia on religious and petty-monarchical grounds.
              In general, Poklonskaya with her icon of Nicholas II just vulgarized everything!

              It is pleasant to realize that even in Kiev the Immortal Regiment passed. Not without obstacles, but it took place.
              I hope that soon our people will gain MYSELF and unite into a single whole as it should be !!!
              I join in all the congratulations, comrades! Happy Victory Day in World War II!
              And I want to apologize to the veterans! Many people write that we will not dishonor, we will not fail .... but we have already dishonored and let down. They destroyed what was built on blood. Oh well, I won’t be on holiday! I agree, the main memory. Nevertheless, the generation of our veterans has never been better and probably will not be. No people are purer in mind and heart, with such great kindness in their souls. Low bow!

        The day ... when the ridge of Nazi Germany was finally broken.

        Yes, they used to tell us so, this was a deep condescension and forgiveness to the rest of the peoples of Europe, but who helped the Wehrmacht and took a direct part in the hostilities on the side of the Nazis. And today their descendants rewrite history and destroy monuments, once again the inhuman evil of fascism stirred in Europe and the Middle East, already openly sponsored by the leaders of some states. They have forgotten their descendants and may once again risk repeating and kindling the fire of another world war.
        Quote: HERMES
        Glory to the peoples of the USSR for their phenomenal endurance and stamina.

        Today, too, there is a war, a war for history, for thoughts, for attitude to those events, with those who, in an attempt to distort everything, gnaw and grind from all sides the foundations, morality, traditions, statehood, using the media from all sources, an endless stream of information pours mud , in an attempt to fool people, some already turned into idiots, monsters and cattle. Today it is also necessary to be steadfast, irreconcilable fighters with stupidity and evil, and most importantly, to be united and united in this struggle, and then Victory will be ours.
        All Happy Greatness in the history of all times of Victory! Be worthy of your heroic ancestors, albeit always, wherever you are brought, you are accompanied by fortresses of spirit and faith, in God and a just cause, intelligence and sobriety, and so that all enemies have crushed teeth about us like steel. And maybe then the time will come for universal justice, that’s why you don’t have ideology in its best individual mass form, due to be born and live in people whose masses will create a state, and not impose them on the contrary. And which will be a hundred times stronger than money and media and not subject to the influence of time. drinks

    Mikhail Yurievich Lermontov wrote in the poem "Borodino" in 1837:

    Yes, there were people in our time,
    A powerful, dashing tribe:
    The heroes are not you.

    And every generation of a generation of elderly people is offended:
    Wrong youth! Nowadays ...

    However, a short episode of the war in Syria showed that there were heroes such as Alexander Prokhorenko
    and will be at all times. And, if necessary, the peoples of Russia will again defend themselves

    This day has gathered in a single
    The pain and happiness of those years past.

    Victory Day. How does this sound!
    Frankly, joyfully and loudly.
    Just two words. But it burns with fire
    The memory of the war - deadly, bitter.

    Silently remember those who did not live.

    But there is a soul, probably in everyone,
    Suddenly recall something very important,
    Most needed, maybe now.

    And, sweeping away everything small, empty,
    Throwing off boredom, callousness or laziness,
    Suddenly recall at what cost
    Our every peaceful day was bought!

    Do not Cry! In the throat, keep moaning, bitter groans.
    In memory of the fallen, be worthy! Always worthy!

    Bread and song, a dream and poetry, a spacious life,
    Every second, every breath, be worthy!

    People! As long as hearts are beating, remember!
    At what price happiness is won - please remember!

    Sending your song on the flight - remember!
    For those who will never sing, remember!

    Tell your children about them to remember!
    Tell the children of the children about them, so they will remember it too!

    At all times of the immortal Earth remember!
    Leading ships to the twinkling stars - remember the dead!

    Meet the quivering spring, people of the Earth.
    Kill the war, curse the war, the people of the Earth!

    Carry your dream through the years and fill your life! ..
    But about those who will never come again - conjure - remember!


    Happy Holiday, members of the forum.

    OLDATES OF FREEDOM

    Unprecedented winds rinse
    Our proud flag over the old magistrate.
    And the city is taken. And it's time to rest
    Once silenced ordered grenades.

    And the inhabitants were swept away by the broom,
    In a deserted space you’ll be lost ...
    When suddenly across the corner
    Someone’s simple dress darted.

    Under a tattered chintz
    Those who have crouched startled shoulders ...
    March barefoot
    A girl ran towards me.

    And, before I understood anything,
    I was filled with anger and pity
    When, rushing to the chest,
    She, unhappy, pressed against me.

    What a pain at the bottom of sleepless eyes
    What heart endured adversity ...
    So who I saved from death!
    So to whom I returned freedom!

    Distant and sad lands
    Freedom trampled paths ...
    - What to call you, my sad sorrow?
    - Europe!

    So, the 638-th French infantry regiment is officially considered the only foreign Wehrmacht formation, which, together with German formations, launched an attack on Moscow in the 1941 year.


    He was defeated on that same Borodino field and then many, many new French 1812s were added to the French graves of 1941.

    Once I “argued” with one “stubborn” Pole about the causes and consequences of the Second World War. He foamed at the mouth to prove that it was the USSR that started the war and then occupied the “unfortunate” Poland. I asked why he thought that the USSR occupied Poland, but we withdrew our troops after the war. He replied that they had withdrawn, but not all of the totalitarian occupation continued, since Russian bases remained on Polish territory. Okay, I say, but if you follow your logic, then now there are US bases on Polish territory, and then it turns out that Poland is occupied by the US! The Pole, having heard this, went wild that he did not notice how stupid he had become: foaming at the mouth, he shouted: “How can you compare your totalitarian occupation with the American democratic one!” And then, I realized that I was being stupid (although, why stupid? - I was telling the truth), I shy away and continued: “Well... this is not an occupation, it’s just friendly help and protection from you, as from a potential enemy...” That’s how they are, these “Europeans” - for them everything connected with the USSR is “occupation”, and what is connected with Hitler, and then with the USA is “democratic” help and protection” from possible enemy: first from the USSR, and then from Russia... They are incorrigible - just as we were enemies for them “for all time,” we will remain such enemies in the future, the main thing for us is to “have no illusions” on this score and always be prepared for a “stab in the back” so that it doesn’t turn out like in the “bad memory” of 1941...

      The next time you argue with a stubborn person, remind them that Poland, before the USSR, entered into treaty relations with the 3rd Reich. Give some food for the brain by reminding us about the Munich Agreement and the Cieszyn Region. Tell us about the Curzon line and finish with Danzig in the light of the Postdam Conference. Hint how many Germans died during the forced relocation, how many of them died a violent death.

        I have already presented the arguments you mentioned more than once... alas, it does not help. They, all these Poles and other “Europeans” are “completely zombified”: they perceive any arguments from the mouth of a Russian person as “obvious lies” and “Putin’s” propaganda”, and they believe only in their “truthful” “British scientists”, and most importantly - to their “democratic" media. It is simply impossible, alas, to prove anything otherwise to them.

    The love of fireworks is a peculiar but sure sign of a degenerating nation.

    Give us exact figures on how much gunpowder this or that people used for fireworks, rockets and firecrackers, and I will tell you at what level of physical and spiritual development they are. The higher the number, the lower this people have sunk in soul and body, for the ratio here is inversely proportional.

    I once stood in Paris, on the Place de la Concorde, and saw a crowd of rich and poor people gawking at one of these pitiful spectacles, which are only designed to deceive people, to create in them the illusion of contentment and joy. With this empty amusement they were paid for their lost freedom, just as a child gives a precious stone for a handful of candy. And they looked with pleasure, almost with delight, and I looked at them: how pitiful and short they were, a good foot shorter than their ancestors! I looked and saw eyes shining with animation, but devoid of thought.

    And these were representatives of a once great nation, and they still considered themselves the first people on earth. They watched the fireworks with such enthusiasm, with such delight that I could no longer doubt: the heyday and greatness of this people was behind them, and now they were quickly sliding down an inclined plane - towards decline and degeneration...
    Until now, every holiday, every fireworks that I see, I remember these words of Mine Reed.

        Are we distorting the words? This holiday has infuriated me since I was 12 years old. And it infuriates me a lot. When I go out into the street and see ribbons and new lanterns on every pole, and around me there is cracked asphalt that is 20 years old. When everyone puts on a ribbon but could have planted a tree instead .When a crowd gathers for fireworks at 10 pm, and after the crowd there is a carpet of garbage, mostly bottles. The holiday should be in the soul.

      When I was still a youth at a military school, and “completely studied the tank”...even then I realized that it was a mass grave...
      From all sides it turned out that the tank was the main striking force, which was destroyed by the enemy as a matter of priority.
      An old colonel from the BTViT department told us how tankers went into battle during the Great Patriotic War.
      - They silently started the cars and walked forward.
      - Those who survived after the battle silently started their cars and walked forward.
      - Those who survived silently started their cars and walked forward.

    It was absolutely rightly noted that Hitler’s satellites had plans for the territory of the USSR in the event of victory. And they didn’t doubt her.
    I published the novel "Ice Shaft", although I am a scientist by work. I have more than 300 scientific papers and dozens of inventions. He was the Chief Designer of many combat systems that still protect our homeland. So in this novel I documented in artistic form what kind of views Finland had in this war. She wanted to capture Arkhangelsk. And on June 21, 1941, her troops landed in the area of ​​BBK lock 6 with the aim of blowing up the platinum, but were destroyed. The plot was later taken for the story “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet.”
    There were interesting events with the Spanish Blue Division, which Hitler sent to defend Tikhvin in early December 1941. This division was completely destroyed and the Red Army liberated Tikhvin on December 8, 1941. And my father died on the Leningrad Front on December 27, 1941. But the large-caliber railway artillery he created crushed the Nazis near Pulkovo and did not allow the creation of even small tank columns. The error of the shots was 15 meters at a distance of 20 km. Happy Victory Day. I have the honor.

    Happy Victory! Europe does not understand why we so stubbornly do not want to forget about the event that happened in May 1945; they already treat it calmly. Everything is extremely simple - this is our victory, victory over Europe. Already which is counting. Happy holiday!

    Happy Victory Day!

    Wherever you go or go,
    But stop here
    To the grave this way
    Bow with all your heart.

    Whoever you are - fisherman, miner,
    Scientist or shepherd, -
    Remember forever: here lies
    Your very best friend.

    And for you and for me
    He did everything he could:
    He did not spare himself in battle,
    And he saved his homeland.

    Happy holiday to all WWII veterans!

    Is it really difficult to write - the Great Patriotic War? You're not typing on a typewriter.

    Happy Great Victory Day. A low bow to those who went through it, experienced it and survived it.

      Thank you Egoza. Oh, if only there were more people like you in Ukraine. But let’s not talk about sad things, although it’s a holiday with tears in our eyes, But this is our holiday, the holiday of everyone who honors the memory of their ancestors who defended our common homeland, the USSR

    My grandfather died defending Leningrad, my great-grandfather lost his leg, and then his heel. Eternal glory to the heroes!
