6:00 am
a gigantic process of rewriting history , maybe this is really someone's targeted work on the revival of nazism, is there such a risk? and in general this has nothing to do with history, it has to do with today, it is a tool for solving domestic political issues of today for some countries that rely on certain circles within their country.
6:01 am
germany to his bride: soon there will be reports of the conquest of territories, this will raise the mood, because it is developing it seems that we have moved on. when we are done with the russians, only the english will remain. cheer up, dear, i think we will soon see the end of the war. and here is a letter from private karl günther, writing to his father from the eastern front, bragging that in a ruined house. he found an excellent cap about how the reich will grow rich on the captured lands. during our march, we capture huge warehouses with food and other useful things. the german administration is working to organize the harvest. the local huge fields suffered relatively little from the war. ukrainian grain gives german bread. the so-called german bread and the same german, butter, sugar, meat,
6:02 am
we read these letters, there are tens of thousands of them, in the archive of the berlin museum of communications. you can listen for a long time to someone justifying hitler by saying that he attacked the ussr, defending europe from stalin, but the german soldiers themselves in forty -one knew exactly why they came with weapons to a foreign country. the road today was pleasant
6:03 am
and quiet, stallions and calves are grazing in the meadows, if it weren't for the war, one could say that the view is magnificent. i think that in a couple of years it will be possible to supply the whole of europe from here. such evidence, european historians and politicians today prefer to keep silent about. instead, in accordance with ideological fashion, they point to the molotov-ribbentrop pact. they say, here it is, direct proof of cooperation between two cannibalistic regimes. the soviet union made colossal efforts to create an anti-hitler pact, but no one supported it, moreover, in thirty-eighth year, the leading western countries, both great britain and france, met in munich with hitler, with mussolini, and signed the corresponding document, which we always called the munich agreement, and gave czechoslovakia up to be torn apart, and no matter how pleasant it was.
6:04 am
colleagues should not do the same, should not condemn well, why, why shouldn't ours today divide czechoslovakia. the soviet union was generally the last of the major powers that signed a non -aggression pact with germany, before that everyone had signed. this is also a reason to accuse the soviet the union in preparation for the unleashed second world war, german troops attacked our country, on sunday exactly at 3 am our guns opened fire on russian territory, 4:00 minutes after the artillery barrage we crossed the border, at that moment german tanks thundered next to me... 4 o'clock i remember as if it were yesterday
6:05 am
i decided to go for a pee like that. swearing over our tents, heavy german bombers and they drop these, we called them potatoes, and all the planes that were at our airfield were destroyed, yesterday we passed by a red airfield in the forest, soviet planes stood in a row, some were burned out, others were badly... in the works of western historians, the first days of battles on the eastern front are usually described as an absolute triumph of the nazi military machine. german soldiers march in a ceremonial step across
6:06 am
6:07 am
"the resistance of the russians forces us to fight according to all the rules of our combat regulations, in poland in the west we could afford to known liberties, now..." this is already unacceptable. and here is what the german soldiers themselves wrote. this war demands a lot of victims from the german people. when we finally learn the total number of the fallen, we will be horrified. many graves along the roads testify to this. the war here is so hard that the campaign against france was a walk in comparison. probably, in a couple of days our units will be replaced. the losses are too great. france capitulated in less than a month and a half, belgium did not last even 3 weeks, a large part of europe surrendered practically without a fight, before the attack on the ussr, the germans were sure that
6:08 am
6:09 am
he did not want to fight anymore. here is another interesting message from the front. german soldier karl helt wrote a letter on a blank soviet combat leaflet. apparently, he wanted to brag to his friends. or maybe he just didn’t have time to look for other paper, the private didn’t have time. his units urgently were transferred to moscow. my parents will also be happy when i return from russia in good health. next year there will be another operation against england. "if i get out of there alive, i will be glad to take off my soldier's uniform." despite the enormous losses, the mood in the german troops was still victorious, but in the soldiers' letters , bewilderment was already slipping through between the strictures, why the russians continued to resist, it was high time
6:10 am
to surrender, like the rest of civilized europe. dear hilda, i hope that the war will end soon, the fuhrer in his speech radiated the will to win, did you? can you imagine how glad we would all be to see the end of the campaign, because the hardships are becoming ever more severe? we will happily continue for a few more weeks, but then we have to finish. in november of 1941 , the germans already occupied this entire village here, it seemed to them that
6:11 am
literally with the last push they would take moscow. in good weather , the germans could easily see the kremlin towers from this bell tower with binoculars. on november 7 , 1941, moscow was overcast, low clouds. the german air force remained on airfields, about what was happening in the soviet capital, the wehrmacht command learned not from intelligence reports, but from the svod in the information bureau. on this day , the famous parade took place on red square, not yet of the victors, but certainly already undefeated. at 6:00 in the morning, they woke us up, as if on alarm, put us in a car and took us away, now i remember what streets.
6:12 am
yes, be worthy of these great commanders of ours, i remember his words, because they inspired not only us, who were standing on the cobblestones, on red square listening to his speech, but also the entire soviet union with these patriotic words forward, and we went forward. it is known that when hitler learned
6:13 am
about this parade, he was furious. according to his plans, the wehrmacht should have occupied moscow long ago. the troops even managed to bring boxes with iron crosses, to award the heroes of the reich for the capture of the soviet capital. however, some german soldiers did end up in moscow on red square in those days. one of them was wolf gang morrell. the war lasted only 12 days for him.
6:14 am
why he drove us like that, we understood later, the driver wanted us to see moscow, because the russians managed to defend moscow from the german attack, we were driven through the city, through red square. at that very time, the invincible wehrmacht suffered its first monstrous defeat. almost 600 thousand germans were left lying in the fields near moscow. i have never seen so many. nazi corpses, all the snowy fields near moscow were strewn
6:15 am
with enemy corpses, in some places our lads even put up stakes so as not to be beaten by frozen nazi corpses, and in some places there were whole cars, you understand, frozen, so that the battles near moscow gave us complete hope for our victory. the whole world was tensely following the progress of the battle near moscow. to admit that the best soldiers in the world were stopped.
6:16 am
only briefly are figures given: western researchers believe that the ussr lost a million people near moscow, killed and wounded. according to russian data, there were 9,000 wounded alone, and almost a million more were killed and missing. a shell fell nearby, we were covered with earth, i lost consciousness,
6:17 am
when night fell, the medics began to pick up the wounded. two, well, one day i was lying there on the swamp, one the commander addresses, i'll put the gun next to me, when i finish the bandage, i'll take it, well what can i do, the gun is next to me, than live, i'd rather shoot myself, i thought, i thought,
6:18 am
what to do with this gun, nothing worked out for me, my hands are tied, pull the trigger. capable. today, alexander ilyich lives in the same place from where he left for the front in 1942, in tarusa, kaluga region. after the war, he graduated from a pedagogical college and became a teacher. he still considers it his duty to tell schoolchildren the truth about the war. it is imperative to celebrate victory day, our descendants should celebrate this great holiday, it brought to humanity. happiness and the very best that a person has?
6:20 am
german military trick, this is an additional powder charge, it was hung on the tail of a mine and the range of mortar fire increased by 100-150 m. i wonder, what if it catches fire? look, it's burning, 80 years have passed, and here everything is alive, everything breathes those battles, someone after this will say that this war can be forgotten. our troops constantly tried to move to the left bank of the neva. here in the area of the patch nevsky, the famous one, the neva swallowed about 11 thousand in those days, these are only those
6:21 am
who drowned. i had to stay in such a situation in nevskaya dubrovka for 2 months, well, and the life expectancy there was about 2 hours, on average. i just. listened to the news, ah, leningrad is already completely surrounded, it will be raised in the near future. i hope that the city capitulates in time, otherwise it will be smashed to pieces. this letter is dated september 8, 1941, the first day of the blockade. a few days later, realizing that it would not be possible to take the northern capital at once, hitler made another decision: not to take leningrad, but to destroy it together with its population, cold, hunger and continuous bombing.
6:22 am
these wards where the soldiers were lying were taken away, and there i helped, firstly, i read them letters, some books, carried thermometers, bandages, in general, i did what i could. today, looking at old blockade photographs, galina nikolaevna herself does not understand how she managed to survive that very terrible winter of forty-first. in mid-november, she and her mother were given 125 grams of bread per day. herself. vivid memories from childhood, not the first day at school, not a toy for a birthday, but how they once fed me lunch, an unfamiliar officer in the hospital, he says: girl, where is
6:23 am
your dad? and i say, my dad is at the front, and he says: do you want to eat? i say: yes, he brought me to the cantonment canteen, sat me down next to him, gave me his lunch, i thanked him and left, and he sits there crying, that's how... at the same time , lothar scholz lived in berlin, he was not much older than nine-year-old galya ignatova, he was only turned 11. quite recently , a big event happened in the life of little lotter, he was recognized as orasovo pure and solemnly accepted into the jungvolk, the younger group of the german youth organization.
6:26 am
and not a russian prisoner in german captivity. the term untermensch, by the way, was not invented in germany, but in the usa, not to humans all representatives of the non -nordic race, the american political scientist lothrop stottard called it, and the german nazis creatively developed his theory of inferior nations. the germans created sss groups. storm troops. they could kill civilians.
6:30 am
we are in the sacred temple in karnyakko, now we are in the crypt, in the vault where the soldiers who died in battles in russia during the second world war are buried. the relations between our peoples today are very warm, so much so that the russians gave us a lamp here brother, where oil always burns in memory of our fallen soldiers.
