Human memory forever remembers cute

Fathers, husbands, loved ones, sons,

She cannot forget a soldier of war,

That they gave their lives to their homeland.


Once again, a great holiday is approaching - the 67th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. On this day, our hearts will beat in a special way. Let us bow low and pay our respects to the veterans who have survived to this day. First of all, let's remember the fighters who gave their lives in the fight against the enemy. And it is very important that these memories do not disappear into oblivion, but remain forever for us, descendants. I would like to tell you about my grandfather - Dryanov Philip Vasilievich.

His fate, like all life, is interesting, unusual, full of life trials. For me, my grandfather has always been and remains the most dear person. Everyone in the family respected and loved him. Although I do not remember my grandfather at all, I know from the stories of my relatives that he was a good person. He was strict, but not angry. He never raised his voice to his wife, always worried about his children.

Dryanov Philip Vasilievich was born in the village of Urlyk, Kyakhta aimag in 1920. He came to the village of Sugar Factory after the Great Patriotic War. All his life, grandfather had a reputation among the people around him as a hardworking and honest person. A lot of grief and suffering fell to his lot, but he valued life and strove to live. His companion was a simple country girl Domna Prokopyevna. They created a large and friendly family in which six children grew up and were brought up - Elizabeth, Boris, Sergey, Anatoly, Konstantin, Zoya. Boris, unfortunately, is no longer alive. Philip Vasilievich and Domna Prokopyevna tried to help all their children. They were sympathetic people, modest and strict, and it could not be otherwise.

I learned that my grandfather was in captivity when I was still very little. Then I did not attach any importance to it. Now, having already matured, a lot becomes clear to me. Capture and capture of the enemy is an inevitable historical factor in any war. This topic is extremely delicate and subtle. It concerns the honor and dignity of a person who has experienced all the hardships, humiliation and horrors of fascist bondage.

The memory of the grandfather did not preserve the names of the camps, where merciless fate threw him. Three trophy cards from the three camps he was in retain few details. The first was a prisoner of war camp in Telny. Since 1942, the grandfather with other prisoners was transferred to the Aachen camp, where he remained until October 1944. After the opening of the second front, grandfather was released and on May 9, 1945, on Victory Day, he was enrolled in the sapper unit No. 708 of the separate sapper battalion, where he served until 1946.

In the post-war years, they even avoided talking about captivity with each other. It was such a delicate topic that some of the war veterans who were in captivity kept this secret for many years, although they were rehabilitated. Grandfather did not always talk about it. This is what my aunt, the eldest daughter Elizaveta Filippovna, recalls: “Father never recalled those terrible years.

Even if they just asked about the war, how it was, the father cried and was silent. The family tried to avoid talking on this topic. It was very difficult for him, it was hard to say anything about that terrible ordeal. And we all not only loved our father, but also respected. We learned that the father went through all hell of captivity from the book by Nelly Dmitrievna Korobenkova "The Black Wing of Captivity". It was necessary to keep and experience everything in secret! Everyone cried, I felt sorry for my father. So he died with this pain in his heart.

I remember my father as a strict man, but not evil. He helped almost everyone to build their houses. And this is not so easy. We decided to build a house in the fall. But there was a hitch: they built the house to the floor, but the master refused. So the father went silently, found another master, and the house was completed on time. I didn’t like to postpone planned cases for a long time ”.

And here is what my mother, Zoya Filippovna, remembers: “My father was a very emotional person. I always reasoned: this is why this war? How much grief do wars bring to any person? After all, only God knows what the Russian people had to go through: soldiers, wives, mothers, old people, children. "

I completely agree with my grandfather's reasoning. There is no place in human life for fascism and any of its manifestations, this should not be allowed. An example for me is my grandfather, who all this time carried a load of sadness, humiliation, grief. I believe that today's youth are not very well brought up by their parents. The main thing is to teach children to work, take care of them, their health, instill in them love and respect for their parents. And the children themselves need not only to be loved, but also taken care of.

I believe our family is actually unique and simple at the same time. My grandfather and grandmother, aunts and uncles, parents withstood the hardships of life and lack of money. Indeed, in the post-war hard times, they worked for workdays on the collective farm, they did not know how much and what they earned. They were not afraid to work during perestroika, when they were not paid for work and pensions were not paid. They are not afraid of difficulties and at the present time economic crises, they believe that the main thing is to work. Don't sit around.

They will live worthy of their grandfathers in other times, as they are accustomed to work and this work is in the blood of the Dryanov family. All the children in the grandfather's family are hard-working: Elizaveta Filippovna worked all her life on the Rassvet collective farm as a milkmaid, now she is a good housewife, my mother works as a shop assistant. Sons Konstantin and Anatoly live in Bichura, son Sergei lives in the village of Pokrovka, there was also a son Boris, now deceased. There are six children in total. The family is very large, there are many children and grandchildren. Up to one hundred and fifty relatives gather at significant family holidays. Many grandchildren of my grandfather studied well in our school. Now I'm studying, my granddaughter, Daria Shobanova.

I believe that the main thing in the modern world is to gain knowledge, live like a human being and remain human until the end of life, help people, benefit the state and society. In the meantime, my main task is to study. Now I am in 11th grade, and soon the time will come to choose my path, my path in life. I will try not to let my relatives down.

Years pass, but the wounds of people somewhere out there, in the chest, do not heal. And they still have the same dreams: how they shoot and kill, how they get wounded, how they are taken prisoner, how they starve. If only it could be erased from memory!

How nice it would be if grandfather was alive now. I would have found many questions for him, the answers to which are interesting not only for me, but also for the history of our village. After all, people who were in captivity are different from people who fought at the front. There is a lot of mystery in them. In such people there is a lot of strict wisdom and at the same time kindness, life experience and fierce intransigence to the unjustified cruelty that my grandfather once experienced on himself.

Philip Vasilievich died on February 21, 1996. I and my family now live in his house. Life goes on.

We, the young generation of Russia, will always remember the heroic deeds of our people during the Great Patriotic War. The names of the heroes who gave their lives for our future will forever remain in our hearts. We will never forget those who, not sparing their lives, won freedom and happiness for future generations. Victory Day is one of the holiest holidays for all of us. It is very important that young people represent the greatness and significance of this Victory.

As long as we remember our grandfathers and great-grandfathers, the heroes' feat will live on ...

Marshal of the Soviet Union Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov wrote: “I would urge our youth to take good care of everything related to the Great Patriotic War. It is very necessary to study military experience, create museums and erect monuments, not to forget memorable and glorious names. But it is especially important to remember: former soldiers live among you, treat them with care. "

The Aromashevsk secondary school has developed and has been successfully implementing the Patriotic Education of Schoolchildren program for many years, within which teachers and students spend months of military-patriotic orientation dedicated to the Defender of the Fatherland Day, thematic classroom hours, meetings with veterans and home front workers. In the lessons of the Russian language and literature, students write essays about the heroes of their fellow countrymen and participants in the Great Patriotic War. Today we publish excerpts from some of the eighth-graders' essays under the general title given in the title.

“65 years have passed since the end of the Great Patriotic War, but the great feat of millions of soldiers is still alive in the minds of the people. We, the young generation of Russia, look into the faces of the front-line soldiers and try to imagine what they were then, in those "forties, fatal ..." We thank them for this feat, which they did not for the sake of glory - for the sake of life on earth. Front-line soldiers who rise from the pages of books about the Great Patriotic War and veterans who have survived to this day remind us of what a person should be, of those moral principles to which we must be faithful in any circumstances. Memorials are erected in honor of the heroes of the Great Patriotic War, streets and children's educational institutions are named after them. Today's Aromashevsk schoolchildren, uniting in Timurov's detachments, help veterans with household chores, invite them to meetings, write essays, perpetuating their memory. "

“… In history, as in the life of any person, there are events, dates, names, shocks. In these historical upheavals, not a single person - the whole nation - makes incredible efforts, experiences suffering and hardship.

The Great Patriotic War. Four terrible long years that claimed millions of lives. The guys, whose hearts wanted to love and rejoice, went up to the attack. They defended their land, parents, brothers and sisters, friends and girlfriends. They were very scared when they had to climb out of the trench, go to their death, exposing themselves to the bullets. But they went and died so that we could live. And in their homeland, people lit and light the Eternal Flame, erect monuments so that the memory of the dead would be alive ...

In the center of the village of Aromashevo, there is a monument to those who died in the Great Patriotic War. On holidays, people come to remember and lay flowers in memory and gratitude for the dead ... "

Elena Kochneva

“Today's young generation remembers and honors the dead and living veterans of the Great Patriotic War. We must not forget about the distant 1941-1945 years. We need to say words of gratitude to the veterans for having survived, for remaining kind, that the story of their youth helps us to understand many issues. More than half a century separates the current generation from a terrible date in the history of our people. It is impossible to erase from memory what the people have suffered. The task of the young generation is not only to sacredly honor the memory of the defenders of the Motherland, but also to educate young people in the spirit of respect for their history. Our sacred duty today is not to forget about the soldiers and home front workers who forged this victory, to carefully preserve the good, glorious traditions of our people ... "

On May 9, 1945, the Great Patriotic War ended. 1418 unbearably long and terrible days this bloody battle lasted. Our ancestors fought not just for Victory, they fought for the future world in which we now live, for life, past, present and future. We owe this life and freedom to our grandfathers and great-grandfathers, grandmothers and great-grandmothers. It is to them that we say thank you not only today, but every day.

Every year there are fewer and fewer veterans who bravely and heroically went through all the hardships and hardships of wartime. The only thing we can do for the heroes of the Great Patriotic War is to honor and sacredly preserve the memory of their truly great Victory. By passing on these bitter memories to our children, we are building a world without war in the future.

On Victory Day, the Immortal Regiment will march through the streets of many Russian cities. Anyone can participate in this solemn event. The Roshchino school did not stand aside. On May 9, a column of people will also be held in Roshchino, who will carry portraits of their relatives, participants in that war. A huge number of photographs have been collected for this action. After all, we must know the faces of the defenders of our Fatherland. Grade 9 "A" became the "record holder" in terms of the number of photographs collected at the Roshchino school. There are 14 portraits in their office. The class teacher Nadezhda Vladimirovna Pakhomchik spent a class hour dedicated to Victory Day, where children proudly talked about the life of their ancestors.

Sparing no effort and time, the guys were looking for information about their relatives. So, Anastasia Kushvintseva and her mother approached the Ministry of Defense with a request for information about her mother's great-grandfather. They managed to find out that Nastya's great-grandfather, Khabibulin Gilmitdin Khaibulovich, served as a mortarman on the 1st Belorussian Front. Despite the injury, he reached Berlin. For bravery and courage he was awarded many medals.

Our ancestors possessed tremendous fortitude and courage. Being very young boys and girls, they went to the front without fear. Great grandfather Christina Varfolomeeva Sergachev Alexander Nikitich, and great-grandfather of Arina Kostsova Lyashov Ivan Ivanovich, met the war at the age of 18, and great-grandfather Victoria Okuneva , Yanzakov Galimula Zainulovich, went to the front as a volunteer when he was only 17 years old. By the will of fate, these brave youths spent their young years sitting in the trenches and fleeing from the incessant fire.

Many of those who took part in the hostilities were seriously injured. But they stubbornly rushed to the battlefield to help their comrades, ignoring the bloody bandages. Great grandfather Ekaterina Stolbushkina, Markin Ivan Petrovich, died defending the Brest Fortress when he was 21 years old. Another great-grandfather of Katya, Vlasov Nikolay Andreevich, was mortally wounded by a German shell when he was at a night watch. Great grandfather Anastasia Kokorina , Georgiy Georgievich Nasonov, was wounded three times, was captured, but after all the trials he returned to duty, continuing to carry out military service.

There were also those who did not participate in the battles, but were in constant combat readiness. Tatyanenko Grigory Ivanovich, great grandfather Irina Tatyanenko, twice drafted into the Red Army. He spent the beginning of the Second World War on the "Turkish border", then served in the Far East as the first number of a machine-gun crew.

- My great-grandfathers Stasyuk Petr Sergeevich and Shorsky Timofey Osipovich are for me an example of true resilience, love of life and dedication and, - says Ivan Gromak with great enthusiasm. “Listening to stories about their lives, I understand what courageous people they were, combining amazing courage and extraordinary diligence. To go through the Patriotic War is a huge feat that requires eternal memory and honor. And I remember this!

Another 9th grade student, Daria Ivanova, spoke about her relatives.

- Two of my great-grandfathers took part in the war, Glukhikh Ivan Pavlovich and Bocharov Boris Pavlovich... My ancestors worked and fought for us to live in a free and great country. They are heroes of the Great Patriotic War, they are my heroes, and I am proud of them!

- We live in a peaceful, happy time. If not for their heroism, courage, fortitude, courage, patriotism, then we would not exist. One of these heroic people was my great-grandfather, Sergachev Alexander Nikitich... He fought in tank units. During the battles, great-grandfather was seriously injured, burned in a tank, so he did not live long after the war, he was only 38 years old. I am proud of my great-grandfather and will always remember him, - says with pride Christina Varfolomeeva remembering him.

After a hundred or even a thousand years, nothing will be forgotten. After all, without memory of the past, there is no future. “War cannot change the world. War is treason to the whole world, ”wrote L.S. Sukhorukov. Indeed, the victims of war will forever remind us of its destructive power, so that we do not try to build our world on the bones of people. Ask your great-grandfathers and great-grandmothers: war is a terrible time that no one likes to talk about. This is probably the worst thing that can happen to humanity. Therefore, the memory of the war remains forever in human hearts in order to protect them from similar mistakes. We will always honor those who won a great Victory for the world.

On the Day of Memory and Sorrow, deputies of the Moscow City Duma laid wreaths and flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in the Alexander Garden and at the monument to Marshal G.K. Zhukov. The ceremony was attended by veterans of the Great Patriotic War, members of the Moscow Government, representatives of public organizations, youth associations and patriotic clubs.

Chairman of the Moscow City Duma, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“Dear Muscovites, dear veterans!

On this tragic day for our history, we pay tribute to the memory of the soldiers who fell for their Motherland during the Great Patriotic War. Deep sorrow for the lost fills our hearts ...

Today we, grateful descendants, are proud of the heroism of the brave, courageous sons, devoted to their Fatherland, who saved our country and the whole world from fascism.

Our sacred duty is to preserve and pass on from generation to generation the truth about the most terrible war XX centuries, about the courage and selfless service to our Motherland of our grandfathers and great-grandfathers, about the great feat of the people. Everlasting memory. Low bow. "


Deputy Chairman of the Moscow City Duma, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“Today we bow our heads before the blessed memory of those who died in battles, tortured in concentration camps, who died during the bombing and shelling of compatriots, people of all nationalities and countries that suffered from the fascist aggressor. Our people withstood terrible trials, showed heroism and fortitude, so that peace would come to the whole earth, so that future generations would live happily in a free and powerful country. This day personifies the power and greatness of ordinary people, who rallied and defended their homeland in a difficult hour. We grieve for everyone who did not live to see the Great Victory Day. Eternal glory and eternal memory to those who died during the Great Patriotic War! "

Deputy Chairman of the Moscow City Duma, KPRF faction:

“This day is a reminder of all the victims, including my parents. According to official figures, the war claimed the lives of 27 million Soviet citizens. Those killed at the front and in the rear, tortured in captivity and died of hunger, cold and hardship - no one is forgotten, nothing is forgotten. Low bow and eternal memory to our compatriots who gave their own lives for their country, for freedom and peace, for each of us. We must remember history and must not allow such bloodshed again.

Unfortunately, children and young people today know very little about this war. It is unacceptable. I believe that at the state level, it is necessary to pay as much attention as possible to the theme of the Great Patriotic War, the history of the feat of our country.

The theater "Commonwealth of Taganka Actors", which I head, constantly hosts performances on military themes. This is our personal contribution to the moral and patriotic education of the younger generation. Especially for this date, we have timed the showing of the play "4 Toasts to Victory". This one of the few productions based on poems, songs and letters of the war years.

For me, June 22 is not only the Day of Remembrance and Mourning, but also a warning against the return of Nazism. In connection with the events taking place in Ukraine, this date acquires special significance today. "


Representative of the Moscow City Duma in the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, member of the Moscow State Duma Commission on Culture and Mass Communications, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“June 22 is a tragic and sacred day in the history of our country. As our veterans say, he marked the border between love and blood. There is a unique edition - "Children's Book of War", composed of heartbreaking children's records of the war years. Open it, and you will come closer to understanding this "border". The book contains the following lines: "A war is easy to start, but difficult to stop." The values ​​of freedom, faith in our country, love for the Motherland, for which the soldiers of the Great Patriotic War fought, unite us today. They will always be our spiritual and moral support, the guarantee of the power and prosperity of Russia.

Low bow to the front-line soldiers, home front workers for their heroic deed. Eternal memory to the departed defenders of the Fatherland and good health to our dear veterans. "

Chairman of the MHD Commission on Social Policy and Labor Relations, Chairman of the Moscow Federation of Trade Unions, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“Let the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow remind everyone once again how important it is to preserve the peace that our ancestors inherited so hard, and how dear those people who are with us today are. Low bow and eternal memory to the heroes, defenders, fathers and mothers who paid with their lives for the peace and salvation of the Motherland! We love, we remember, we grieve.

On the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow, together with fellow deputies MHD, members of the Moscow Government, representatives of veteran, children's, youth and public organizations laid wreaths and flowers at the Eternal Flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Alexandrovsky garden at. We honored the memory of millions of those who died with a minute of silence ...

Years and decades will pass. But the memory of those who defended our country, our beloved city, our fallen compatriots who defended the eternal fire of life will forever be alive! "


Chairman of the MHD Commission on Legislation, Regulations, Rules and Procedures, UNITED RUSSIA Faction:

“In the life of many nations, as well as of individuals, there are days that seem to freeze time, make them postpone everything of the moment and think not only about their personal fate. This is the day of June 22 for us - the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow. There are few witnesses of that tragic Sunday of 1941 left among us, but we, who were born and raised under a peaceful sky, remember and feel everything that the "black fascist power" brought to our land ...

Alexander Trifonovich Tvardovsky wrote the poem "I was killed near Rzhev" after the war, with tremendous force passing on the brotherhood of all the living and the dead. And this amazing feeling lives in us to this day, and while it lives on, our memory and sorrow for the departed will be the source of our strength and our truth. Moreover, right now, more than ever, we need both strength and truth. "

Chairman of the MHD Commission on Urban Economy and Housing Policy, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“As long as Russia lives, June 22 will always be the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow, there will be minutes of silence and candles, wreaths and flowers at the monuments The Great Patriotic War.

This day does not allow us to forget about the death of millions of people, about destroyed plans and hopes. But at the same time, we always remember about the courage and heroism shown on the battlefields and in the distant rear, about selflessness, about the strength of the spirit, about the great faith in our coming Victory.

It is necessary that the generations who grew up under a peaceful sky keep the memory of the Great Patriotic War. After all, this is necessary in order to know for what and thanks to whom we live ”.

Chairman of the MHD Commission on Physical Culture, Sports and Youth Policy, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“On June 22, 1941, fascist Germany, without declaring war, treacherously attacked the Soviet Union. The war brought grief to every home. Today, on the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow, we remember everyone who, at the cost of inhuman efforts and with their lives, managed to defend the Motherland, defended our right to freedom and independence, and gave subsequent generations their future.

The whole country stood up to fight the fascists. And we must worthily preserve the memory of courage, fortitude and brotherhood, sealed by the blood shed on the battlefields of the Great Patriotic War.

No matter how many years have passed since that distant time, the memory of military events will always live in the hearts of people. We remember. "

Chairman of the MHD Commission on State Construction and Local Self-Government, UNITED RUSSIA Faction:

“On June 22, we bow our heads before the great feat of soldiers of the front and rear, adults and children, men and women - everyone who stood up to defend the Motherland in a terrible bloody war against fascism and won the Great Victory. The further the most terrible war goes in history, the higher the greatness of the feat of those who, not sparing blood and life itself, broke the back of the fascist reptile, defended the freedom of our Motherland! An earthly bow to our fathers and grandfathers, who defended the world, who preserved to us and our descendants the faith in the bright tomorrow of our Motherland. "

Chairman of the MHD Commission on Public Associations and Religious Organizations, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“June 22, 1941 was an ordinary warm summer day, serene and cloudless. For only four hours that day, people in our country slept and lived peacefully. Then everything turned upside down. The most difficult test for our native land has begun. Black haze covered everyone. On June 22, 2017, we remember and feel that the hour of eternal memory, endless sorrow and untimely loss of eternally living heroes has struck. Our memory, like a flame burns and shines in their honor and for their peace! "

Deputy Chairman of the MHD Commission on Security, faction "Motherland":

“June 22, 1941 is one of the saddest days in the history of our country, the day of a great tragedy and a great feat inseparable from it. Every hour of that terrible war showed the world an example of heroism, fearlessness of a Soviet soldier, self-sacrifice of those who worked in the rear, helping to forge Victory.

Every year, on the Day of Memory and Mourning, we remember all those who died, bow our heads to the generation of Soviet people who brought us the Great Victory! We must carry this memory through time, pass it on to our children and grandchildren, so that the horror of that war, which shook the whole world, will never be repeated. Low bow and great gratitude to the veterans and all those who fell in the battles for our great Motherland! And let no one be forgotten, and nothing will be forgotten. "

Chairman of the MHD Commission for Control over the Reliability of Information on Income, Property and Property Obligations Submitted by Deputies of the Moscow City Duma, President of the Moscow Chamber of Commerce and Industry, UNITED RUSSIA Faction:

“June 22, 1941 is a terrible date in the history of our country. This is truly the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow. It was then that a difficult, bloody war began, which in the very first days brought huge losses and a lot of grief.

But from that day began the difficult path to the Great Victory. A lot of efforts have been made, many victims have been made by people of all ages, professions, and nationalities. The main hardships of wartime fell to the lot of the Soviet people.

This date has been celebrated for many years already. Schoolchildren take part in the celebrations - they come to the Eternal Flame. The search movement continues to work: its participants search for the unburied remains of war heroes, identify them and inform their relatives about where their missing relative is buried. All this allows us to hope that the memory of those terrible and heroic years will be preserved. "

Chairman of the MHD Commission on Environmental Policy, UNITED RUSSIA Faction:

“On the Day of Memory and Sorrow, we honor the memory of all those who, at the front and in the rear, forged the Great Victory. Their courage, unparalleled heroism and dedication teach us the most important human values. The great sacrifice of our fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers, their feat - will forever remain in our hearts. Eternal glory to them! It is our duty to keep the memory of this feat, to respect perseverance, courage, selfless love for our Fatherland and pass it on to the next generations. "

Deputy Chairman of the MHD Commission on Healthcare and Public Health ,

“The Day of Remembrance and Sorrow is a special day that does not allow all people on earth to forget that evil cannot be destroyed by evil, that no goals justify human sacrifice, and life is the most valuable gift and no one has the right to take it away. A deep bow to those who did not lose heart in front of the enormous danger, did not feel sorry for themselves, every second during these difficult years gave their strength to the front, rear and the desired victory, which went to our Fatherland at an incredible price. We remember..."

Deputy Chairman of the MHD Commission on Public Associations and Religious Organizations, the "Communist Party" faction:

“Today we remember the first days of the war, when the country rallied and rebuffed the enemy. There are 1418 days of courage ahead. Victory is ahead. But today it is important to remember the millions of our Soviet people who gave their lives for the sake of a brighter future. We will honor the feat of soldiers, home front workers and children of war. Let's punish our children to remember the past! "

Member of the MHD Education Commission, fraction "UNITED RUSSIA":

“Get up, a huge country ... At dawn on June 22, 1941, fascist Germany, treacherously violating the non-aggression pact, suddenly, without declaring war, unleashed a huge blow on the Soviet Union. The Soviet people were forced to interrupt their peaceful creative work and engage in mortal combat with a strong and insidious enemy. The Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union began against Nazi Germany and her European accomplices. Overnight, the hopes of millions of families were destroyed, the destinies of entire generations were broken ... The memory of that tragic day, like the unabated sorrow, will forever remain in our hearts. Eternal memory to the soldiers who fell for the freedom of our Motherland! Eternal glory to the Heroes! "

Deputy Chairman of the MHD Commission on Social Policy and Labor Relations, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“76 years have passed since that tragic night, so much has happened in our history, life has changed beyond recognition. But nothing erased that pain. And I, like all of us, acutely feel these wounds and inescapable grief. Sorrow does not go away. We remember, remember our children and grandchildren at some genetic level ... I don’t know if someday June 22 will just become a summer day for our people. And I think this is important. As long as memory lives, we understand that such a terrible disaster must not be allowed. Low bow to the veterans! Eternal memory to the fallen! "

Member of the MHD Commission on Education, the "Communist Party" faction:

“June 22 is the day when the Great Patriotic War began. Outrageous rabid politicians, reflecting the interests of big business led by Adolf Hitler, decided that they were the chosen ones and could decide the fate of not only people, but also entire nations. In a brisk march to the shouts of "Heil!" All the invaders who appeared on our land stumbled about Moscow! It was from Moscow that the path of the oppressors who had lost their sense of reality began to their collapse. Thanks to the Soviet people, the peoples of Europe brought freedom in hot, sunny May.

Russians visiting Vienna should bow to the monument to the Soviet soldier located in the very center of the city; when in Berlin, visit Treptow Park with an outstanding work by Yevgeny Vuchetich - a soldier carrying a girl in his arms; if you happen to be in Poland, come to the former concentration camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau near the ancient Polish city of Auschwitz, and while walking around Warsaw, go to the memorial where 21,468 Red Army soldiers are buried, who gave their lives for its liberation; visiting Prague, to lay flowers at the Olshansk cemetery, where 437 Red Army soldiers who died and died from wounds in the last days of World War II are buried. Only in this case will the historical memory and the truth about the role of the Soviet soldier and our country in the victory over the brown plague of the 20th century be preserved ”.

Deputy Association "My Moscow":

“June 22 ... The citizens of Russia greet this date with sorrow in their hearts. On this day 76 years ago, Soviet people, gathering around the loudspeakers, silently listened to the terrible news about the beginning of the war. And then no one knew that four tragic years lay ahead. Our fathers and grandfathers showed unparalleled stamina, valor, and self-sacrifice. Their names are forever inscribed in the history of the country. They paid with their lives, their blood for the Victory, for our future, our happiness and the peaceful sky above our heads. We will never forget about their great feat! "

Member of the MHD Commission on Healthcare and Protection of Public Health, UNITED RUSSIA faction:

“Today is one of the most tragic days in the history of our country, and not only ours. Millions of lives were cut short in a matter of hours, millions of lives were crushed, broken, distorted ... This day is necessary for us - children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren of those who went through those terrible years and those who did not return home. We must understand how fragile the world is, how valuable is everything that we can see and feel every minute of our life. Take care of this memory, remember those who died, those who did not spare themselves for our sake. "

Member of the MHD Commission on Healthcare and Public Health, deputy association "My Moscow":

“June 22, 1941 is perhaps the saddest day in the history of our country. The blow was taken not only by the Soviet army, women, children and the elderly entered a mortal battle in the name of the Fatherland, in the name of the survival of their families. For four years, day after day at the front, in the rear, each in his place, they performed feats, great and unknown, overcoming fear, pain, exhaustion. On the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow, we remember the beginning of the great tragedy, which should never be repeated in our native land. "


On the eve of Victory Day, we asked the youngest (under 25) employees of our group of companies what the day of May 9 meant for them.

Experts working in different companies of the Sotsium holding shared their thoughts on the upcoming holiday.

HWhat does Victory mean for you, as a representative of the younger generation?

Gone are the days of the 1950s, when the victory of 1945 was marked by the unbridled joy of a peaceful life. Life without fear of bombing, hunger, devastation. Today, the great victory of our great-grandfathers and grandfathers is felt and empathized by us, subsequent generations, as a holiday of freedom and goodness.

For the younger generation, May 9 is a great holiday. A holiday given to us by strong people. And we owe them that we are now living a prosperous, calm life, not knowing the monstrous humiliations and deprivations that befell our ancestors on the battlefields and in concentration camps, in the hungry rear and on the front lines. We can enjoy the peaceful sky overhead. We, that is, our entire young generation, will forever remember and honor the memory of the great warriors and with gratitude wish all participants, veterans, home front workers health and long life.

Do your family celebrate Victory Day, do they remember the relatives who fought? In your opinion, is the tradition of celebrating May 9 interrupted with the death of the front-line soldiers? And is it necessary, in your opinion, to celebrate it so widely every year?

Whether or not to celebrate this holiday is the business of every person, every family. But it is imperative to remember him!

Victory Day is one of the favorite, touching, great holidays. In our family, this holiday is definitely celebrated. We are watching the Victory Parade; we go to concert venues in parks. And we also congratulate the veterans and participants of the Great Patriotic War: we give carnations, we say warm words of gratitude for the peace they gave us. And, of course, we lay flowers at the "Eternal Flame" memorial and at the monuments of the heroes who took part in the war. At the festive table, we remember our grandfathers and great-grandfathers who lived at that time. Some fought on the front lines, while others “forged” victory in the rear. Someone died on the battlefields, someone returned home victorious. Our heroic grandmothers and great-grandmothers worked in the rear, in hunger and cold, endured enemy occupation, illness, and the loss of loved ones. And all together they withstood and defeated the enemy!

The tradition of celebrating May 9 should in no case be interrupted with the passing of this steadfast generation. This holiday is gratitude to those people who gave their lives, survived and gave us a bright future. I think that this day simply needs to be remembered annually. It shows the solidarity of generations. When the older generation is surrounded by special attention, when the whole country salutes the soldiers who fought for our freedom not only on the fields of this war.

May 9 in Russia is a big and meaningful holiday. We will definitely celebrate it with the whole family; as always to watch the Victory Parade, films about the Great Patriotic War.

This year we will also try to celebrate it. At the festive table we will listen to the stories of our grandfathers and grandmothers about the post-war period. If they are not with us, we will call and congratulate. We will watch documentaries and feature films about this war; let's go for a walk in the parks, and if we meet veterans and participants in the war on the way, we will certainly congratulate and thank you.

Everything that we were taught at school, that we have learned from films and books, we will tell the next generation - our children and grandchildren. Let's remember some of the testimonies that parents and grandparents told us. After all, these are their closest relatives - fathers, mothers, grandfathers and grandmothers - who were participants in those great victories at the front, in the rear, in the post-war years, in the difficult period of overcoming devastation and hunger.

We want to say our heartfelt thanks and wish health to those who gave us life without war - veterans and home front workers. It is imperative for everyone to do this, regardless of whether their ancestors fought in this war or not. Warriors-liberators, you will always remain an example to follow.

Celebrating this victory, we pay tribute to our people, before all the heroes we bow our heads for all the previous victories throughout the existence of our great people.

The defeat of Nazi Germany and its allies in Europe was achieved as a result of the joint actions of the Soviet Union and its Western allies. Paying tribute to all fighters against fascism, it should be recognized that the main merit in the defeat of Nazi Germany belongs to the USSR.

Undoubtedly, for every prudent inhabitant of our country, May 9 is a great day, a holiday with a capital letter. A victory at such a high cost, at the cost of 25 million lives, means a lot to me. The historical and world significance of the Victory of the USSR in the Great Patriotic War lies not only in the liberation of its territory and the preservation of the integrity of its Motherland, but also in the liberation of the peoples of Europe from fascist enslavement. The victory immeasurably increased the international prestige of the USSR, which had become a world power, without which not a single important issue could now be resolved. These are reasons for pride in the Motherland.

In our family, unfortunately, Victory Day is not so widely celebrated, perhaps because the relatives who fought did not achieve significant success in terms of medals. I only know about my great-grandfather: I was a tanker and died in 1941, I can't remember the exact place. As long as the ideas of our leadership regarding Victory Day coincide with the thoughts of the people, and as long as the veterans are alive, the tradition of celebrating Victory Day will not be interrupted, and May 9 will be celebrated annually so widely. In my opinion, it is probably not worth it every year and so widely in difficult economic conditions.

The last couple of years, May 9 and the May holidays have been associated with writing term papers. These May holidays, apparently, will go under the spelling of the WRC.

But, of course, I'll tell you about Victory first of all, if there are no new victories. Of course, it's worth doing this.

May 9 is a great day. It is inexhaustible pride for many peoples who united against the threat and were able to win. Thanks to their feat, we live a free life and enjoy the peaceful sky overhead. We have a future! And I am grateful for that.

In my family, we always celebrate Victory Day, remembering our great-grandfather, who fought on the border of Ukraine and Russia. And there is a little story about his exploits. He began serving when he was about 25 years old; the war began when he was 27. During the hostilities, he and his colleagues were taken prisoner and put in a barn, set up guards and left. We all know our ramshackle sheds, which usually contain a lot of all sorts of junk, fortunately, this was just like that. He and his comrades managed to get out through the roof, neutralize all enemies and go on the offensive. One of his comrades wrote to my great-grandmother about this. Unfortunately, no more letters have been received.

Almost everyone has a relative who fought in the war, and for everyone he is an example, a hero who gave us what we have.

Of course, it is necessary to celebrate widely! It is very important to remind people of the history of war and victory, and such a big holiday is like a tribute to all people who risked their lives for us.

On the morning of May 9, I will go to Red Square to watch the parade of technology and aviation. The latest technology will be shown there, which in the near future will be able to protect our country from possible attacks. I will also look at the colorful fireworks. I am sure it will be interesting and not boring.

The main thing is to never forget about the exploits of our heroes, and we will definitely cultivate the same feeling of respect for them in our children and grandchildren!

For me, May 9 has always been, is and will be a Great Day. From the stories of grandparents, I know what they had to go through, what they went through. For me, May 9 is not just Victory Day, it is the day on which the largest war ended, and in which millions of people died, thanks to them we now live.

In my family, Victory Day is celebrated by gathering the whole family at the table, telling stories and discussing any moments related to the family, and after dinner my grandfather talks about the war ... I believe that the tradition does not pass and will not pass, and this holiday should be celebrated so widely !

I spend the morning and day on May 9 with my family, in the evening I go for a walk to the center with a girl, and at 21.00 I usually visit the observation deck of Vorobyovy Gory.

I will tell my children about the price of this victory. Of course, it is worth doing, I cannot express in words why, I just know for myself what is needed.

What does Victory mean for you, as a representative of the younger generation?

Celebration of the victory of the Red Army and the Soviet people over Nazi Germany in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. I am grateful to all that Russia, which courageously defended its borders, despite the numerical superiority of the enemy, having won such a significant victory for us.

Do your family celebrate Victory Day, do they remember the relatives who fought?

Of course, this is a single holiday for all of us; my great-grandfather fought and luckily returned home.

In your opinion, is the tradition of celebrating May 9 interrupted with the death of the front-line soldiers?

May 9 will be relevant as long as we remain human. We must remember those who conquered the peaceful sky over our heads.

And is it necessary, in your opinion, to celebrate it so widely every year?

There is no one to remember them except us. Moreover, they have been deliberately erased from history. So, if you do not want only the edge of the sleeve to remain in the frame of your grandfather, celebrate with all your might. Who besides us?

I will visit my grandparents; I plan to attend any festive events organized in Moscow.

What will you tell your children about the war, about the Victory? And is it worth doing, in your opinion?

I will try to unobtrusively and truthfully tell how everything really happened, without distorting the story.
