  • MediaDB / «In August '41. When the armor was burning" Ivan Koshkin: download fb2, read online

    About the book: 2011 / August 1941. The Red Army, defeated in border battles, rolls back to the east. Trying to restore the situation, the Soviet command launched counterattacks on the German troops that had broken through. These desperate, poorly prepared attacks rarely achieved their goal - the enemy was too experienced and strong. But the divisions that burned in the summer of 1941 in the fire of suicidal counteroffensives won the most important thing for the country, the most valuable thing in the war - time. This bitter and bright story is about the courage of the doomed. About those who fought to the death, not thinking about glory and rewards. Who died but did not give up. Who fought for their homeland - and saved it at the cost of their own lives.
