Purim, a Jewish holiday.

Purim, the Jewish holiday this year.

Timidi mater non flet.

Which of the two, has the right to be congratulations on Defender?
 

I congratulate you on the day of the Soviet Army and Navy.

Well there's your Purim. But this character appeared slightly later and wanted the war for world revolution to the last Russian . Received in full. But the Red Army was created at the direction of VI Lenin and repel the Germans. Placard he draw?

Cyril Syzran, Zverev in the army?

Very true noticed!

Note: there is no mother (I do not count, I'm convinced pacifist) of this topic has not touched ...

Leon Trotsky after Lenin's infamous Brest Peace , resigned from the post of Commissar for Foreign Affairs , but immediately (now March 18) received in the government of Soviet Russia portfolio of Minister of War - People's Commissar for Military and Naval Affairs , and later Chairman of the Revolutionary Military Council of the Republic ( FAR) and, of course , he's the creator of the Workers ' and Peasants' Red Army ( RKKA).
Yes, he served in the air defense units in Poland , was the deputy commander of the platoon , the secretary of the Komsomol organization and rose to the rank of sergeant .

Cyril Syzran, but where does Malevich or Purim ?
Let's take this approach on March 8, the day to congratulate the women of ardent revolutionaries and a portrait of Clara Zetkin , and tell children about Santa Claus, I 'm not talking about Valentine's Day . So we have holidays left. And why is this true? Holidays adapted, something people remember , with someone talking. Celebrating. I personally called and congratulated all of my military friends , and my answer is that I had sent birthday greetings to Malevich?
Pavel right here !
