  • MediaDB / «Rail War in Polesie" Ivan Kolos: download fb2, read online

    About the book: 1962 / The events described in the brochure refer to the summer of 1943. Under the powerful onslaught of the Soviet Army, Hitler's hordes retreated, and the front rolled further and further to the west. The German command intensively used the railways running towards the front to transport its reserves and military equipment. One of these roads was the Korosten-Mozyr highway, which, on instructions from the Central Headquarters of the partisan movement, had to be disabled. The Polesie partisans completed this task with honor. The author of this brochure, Ivan Andreevich Kolos, a former commander of the Lelchitsa partisan brigade, talks about how the partisans of the South Pripyat unit prepared and completed this important task.
