Happy Tankman Day!

“Sun armor is hot,
And dust trekking on clothes.
Pull the jumpsuit off the shoulder -
And in the shade, in the grass, but only before
Check the engine and sunroof open:
Let the car cool down.
We will carry everything with you -
We are people, and she is steel ... ”
S.Orlov

On the second Sunday of September in Russia, according to the good tradition established and legally enshrined in the post-war period, as well as the Decree of the President of Russia No. 549 of 31 of May 2006 of the Year “On the establishment of professional holidays and memorable days in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation”, the Day of the Tankman is celebrated - one of the most revered dates in the military environment. The holiday date was set in recognition of the great merits of armored and mechanized forces in defeating Nazi Germany during the Great Patriotic War, as well as a special thanks to the Soviet tank builders, who literally forged the Victory in the rear with their hard work.
In the first years of its existence, Tanker's Day was celebrated in large cities of the country with a solemn promotion tank columns along the central streets of the city and even festive fireworks. Today is the holiday of tankers - the time for solemn meetings of veterans of tank forces, rallies, various events with the direct participation of tanks: exhibitions and demonstration performances with extreme driving of combat vehicles, as well as an excellent reason to once again meet with comrades-colleagues in an informal atmosphere and just relax.
Congratulations to all the tankers on their professional holiday and wish to show their skills exclusively at the landfills!

    Before the army, I was most afraid of becoming tank crews and sappers; I had seen enough of tank crews on the T-54, but about sappers I thought that there was a sapper for every mine))))
    it was time to join the army and a sapper picked me up from the assembly point and took me to tank training)))
    for which I am immensely grateful to him)))

    WITH HOLIDAY MEN!

    In Russia there is a catchphrase...
    "EVERYTHING IS OKAY, LIKE IN TANK FORCES!!!"
    I read now, I don’t remember where and what, well, the meaning is this (back in the days of the USSR) In the event of a nuclear strike on the USSR, nothing can stop Russian tanks...They will iron all of Europe and gas them on the shores of the Atlantic..looking for a target to attack..
    I am sure that this will happen if something happens!!! Russia is proud of you (our tanks are the best!!!)

    The poem in Orlov's epigraph was written in 1943! “We will endure everything with you, We are people, and she is steel.” This can only be described with a line from another verse: “We should make nails out of these people, There would not be stronger nails in the world!” And for the tankers, one more line: “And they finished off, the song is a guarantee, all the enemies in a fire attack! Three tankers, three cheerful friends - the crew of a combat vehicle!” HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
