Remember 22 June 1941. We REMEMBER!

Attention! Broadcasting from Moscow. We are transmitting an important state message. Citizens of the Soviet Union! Today at 4 o'clock in the morning, without any announcement of war, the German armed forces have assaulted the borders of the Soviet Union. The Great Patriotic War of the Soviet people against the Nazi invaders has begun. Our cause is just, the enemy will be defeated. Victory will be for us!

By the light of appreciative memory, by the light of our love, by the light of our sorrow, let the names of the fallen be lighted up....

Let us remember... 3 years, 10 months and 18 more days... 26 million 452 thousand lives were lost in the Great Patriotic War...

Let us remember those who fought the Nazis at the front, those who fought in partisan detachments, those who suffered in Nazi concentration camps. Let us remember those who toiled without sleep or rest on the battlefields... Let us remember those who reached Berlin and Prague, and are no longer with us today... Let us remember the villages that were completely burned to the ground and the villages that were wiped off the face of the earth... Let us remember the hundreds of towns, destroyed but not defeated! Let us remember every street, every house!

Soldier of the Great Patriotic War! You were fighting to the last moment near Moscow and Stalingrad, carrying bread to Leningrad during the blockade, you were burning in a tank near Prokhorovka... By perishing you saved millions of lives. You, who lost family and friends in Auschwitz, Buchenwald, Dahau... You fought for your Motherland! You defended your family. Let us remember all those who sacrificed their lives on the altar of Victory... Let us bow low to them.

Years and decades have passed... Generations have changed... But would it be possible to forget the sacrifice of soldiers who defended not only our lives, but also the name of the Man who wanted to crush Nazism...

On the Great Victory Day we bow our heads to the memory of our sons, daughters, fathers, mothers, grandfathers, husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, fellow soldiers, relatives and friends who never returned from this war...
