Happy Victory Day!
 

Congratulations to all who cherish this holiday, with 65 th anniversary of Victory in Great Patriotic War!
My family this holiday is near, all the grandfathers fought. One died in 1942, the second came to Berlin. Their wives, my grandmother worked in the rear. Alive my mother who in 1941 was 16 years old and is more certain psevdoistorikov could tell about those years.
Eternal glory to our veterans and the Eternal Memory of those who never returned from that war!

Happy Victory Day!

When thinking about how life is lived for a generation: hungry childhood, collectivization and industrialization, the repression, a terrible war and great in her victory, in hunger and poverty were raised children, worked as one after - exploit lifelong. And what with all these tests fell upon them, they remained human beings!
About grandparents remember with affection and envy, as they lived, as loved as friends. The light of memory! And they always say:
- If only there was no war.

I join the congratulations!

Recently, a girl 32 years old said to me: without the help of the Americans is not the USSR would win the war. This is an amazing, amazing to hear the bitter. Veterans probably would have said-lived! I am sure that my son never did say. He fought three great-grandfather (2 died) and one great-grandmother.
Maternal grandfather went into the militia, when the Germans outside Moscow were. Missing. My grandmother was left with two children.
Paternal grandfather and grandmother fought. Gone are the war, returned alive and gave birth to two more children.

Thanks to all! And on the Day of Victory for all!

"We thought that the oligarch - ookazals Veteran
 

Thank you for such a warm message.
On my own to add: they knew how to enjoy life in spite of everything, and knew how to be happy, let them moments of happiness were short and elusive. (Which, unfortunately, do not say about our contemporaries, who seemed to have everything for it).

Today, unable to hold back her tears, listening to the news:
Orenburg children's cancer clinic has received a donation of $ 280 thousand rubles. In their reviews: "The largest donation in the history of the hospital. We thought that the oligarch was - Veteran "- Nicholas G. Khabarov from the village Kulagino, Orenburg region!

It goes without saying: we have yet to learn from them and learn ... to "live life so that was not painfully hurt for aimlessly lived years!" ...

And why, I wonder?

Do not you know that Berlin Germany did not end that the other side fought for a few more dense front allies.

It's not the Americans (although they also fought, and on two fronts), but at least that they have provided: half of the powder (as without it you can go to war), half aluminum, 300,000 trucks and a sea of other things, such as canned meat (one bread is not very povoyuesh, you know).

But without them what to Berlin - to the state border was difficult to reach.

Congratulations to all on the Victory Day!

This is our holiday - a holiday Holy entire country, every family, every home, every person, because in every family, and my too, of course, this day is about someone saying "eternal memory and eternal glory!".
 
And thank God that in our country are still alive, those who fought, who waited, who toiled in the rear, who grew up without a family, but grew up man - those who in this day want to bow low, to wish good health and may even than some help to survive in today's life!

Victory Day! So bright and so bitter! Light, because to be proud of our fathers and grandfathers, for all who approached this victory every hour, every drop of blood, the pride of our motherland, and disappear when the new boundaries and all winners once again become one people . bitter because victory was huge loss of life and more, "because apart from this victory, the other big victories we have, in general, and no.
