They fought for their homeland Automatic translate

On October 16, an exhibition dedicated to the 76th anniversary of the liberation of Kaluga from Nazi invaders will open in the Kaluga Museum of Fine Arts (103 Lenin St., second floor, small gray room).

Fighting and conflicting for thousands of years, people did not even think that the moment could come when the war would take on a completely different scale, not previously seen. The 20th century showed firsthand how fragile the world is. Two world wars shook the planet, having acquired unprecedented proportions.

The exhibition “They Fought for the Homeland” is, first of all, dedicated to a simple soldier, a man who has suffered the grief of war. He is a simple soldier - a collective image with many names: Ivan, Vasily, Victor, Sergey, Alexei, Alexander, Valentine, Andrey, Vladimir, etc. He is the one who left without knowing whether the one who did not want to die would return but nevertheless went to certain death. For him, his homeland is something much larger than the place where a person was born - these are fields, forests, villages and cities, these are relatives, relatives, friends and acquaintances, these are songs, poems and stories that preserve the memory of ancestors. They - ordinary soldiers - fought for their homeland, our duty is to remember this.
