In 1940, Germany launched a war of aggression against the Soviet Union.
Soviet soldiers paid a heavy price in the bitter war, and in order to replenish their forces, the Soviet Union began to recruit female soldiers.
Compared to the Soviet male soldiers, our performance was equally good.
On the battlefield, danger can happen at any time, so the fighters usually wear clothing that facilitates movement. However, it is curious why Soviet female soldiers chose to wear skirts during the war?
What's the story behind this? In fact, the choice of Soviet female soldiers to wear skirts to the battlefield was not just due to personal preference or fashion trends, but was closely related to the habits of Soviet society at that time.
In the traditional culture of the Soviet Union, women were given the image of industriousness, wisdom and courage, and wearing skirts was also seen as a form of respect and praise for women. Therefore, during the war, Soviet female soldiers chose to wear skirts to the battlefield, not only to show their strong side, but also to show their respect and honor as Soviet citizens.
In addition, Soviet female soldiers wore skirts to the battlefield in order to maintain the grace and dignity peculiar to women in military training and combat. On the Soviet-German battlefield, Soviet female soldiers showed their bravery and tenacity by wearing skirts, and at the same time became a unique scenery in the Soviet army.
In general, Soviet female soldiers wore skirts to battle, which was not only a respect and inheritance of Soviet traditional culture, but also a way for them to show courage and dignity in times of war.
In that era, women had a lower social status and generally chose to wear skirts. In addition, the recruitment of female soldiers at that time was also a temporary decision, so even if women wanted to wear pants, they did not have time to change.
After entering the army, Soviet women were given a more modest outfit, which included over-the-knee boots. This not only makes them more agile on the battlefield, but also makes it difficult for enemies to concentrate.
The fighting strength of female soldiers in the USSR was on a par with that of men.
Despite the fact that female soldiers performed well on the battlefield, they were not treated as well as male soldiers, and even made Soviet female soldiers feel ashamed, and their efforts were not respected and recognized as they should be.
In an emergency, Soviet women soldiers showed resourcefulness and bravery. By lifting their skirts, they attract the attention of their enemies and buy valuable time for their side.
This act demonstrated their ingenuity and superb strategic and tactical skills.
The bravery of the Soviet women soldiers deeply shocked the enemy, and their heroic actions still terrify the enemy to this day.
It's amazing to be able to leave such a deep shadow on the enemy.
The brutality of the war was profoundly demonstrated in the Soviet-German war, in which Germany committed 5.5 million troops, which can be called terrifying.
In the Soviet-German war, Germany and the Soviet Union committed more than 10 million and 30 million troops, respectively. In addition to this, the war was marked by a number of large-scale battles on a shocking scale.
Everyone knows that Moscow was once the capital of the Soviet Union.
In this campaign, Germany committed 1.8 million troops, compared to only 1.25 million soldiers sent by the Soviet Union. Therefore, the German soldiers quickly reached the edge of the city.
The Soviet Union's large-scale military expansion increased the number of troops from 1.25 million to 2.5 million, and the harsh winter also reduced the number of fighters in Germany's mechanized troops.
To add insult to injury, the Soviet Union also cut off German military supplies, putting the German army in an even more difficult position.
The war cost 500,000 people to Germany and millions to the Soviet Union.
Despite the tragic Battle of Moscow, the other battles were equally striking.
According to the accounts of the surviving soldiers, the German ** team paid a heavy price in the battle for Stalingrad, and there was a river of blood on the streets. The attack was not only a brutal blow to the Soviet Union, but also a challenge to humanity.
However, the cruelty of war cannot erase the memory of history, and we should learn from history, cherish peace, and avoid the recurrence of war.
Nine soldiers lose their lives every second, and that's not counting the number of innocent people. The brutality of this war is beyond imagination to be described by the word "horror".
In the course of four years, the Soviet-German war brought deep pain and great losses to the world.
The war brought huge losses of people and property, according to statistics, the Soviet Union lost 17.4 million civilians, while Germany also lost 2.2 million civilians.
It is particularly distressing that almost all of the male population of the Soviet Union died on the battlefield, leaving only a few old people, women and children. The war has caused deep damage and irreparable losses to the people of both countries.
This gruesome battle has been recorded as one of the most terrifying wars in history. It can be seen from this that the skirts worn by Soviet female soldiers on the battlefield were completely influenced by the social atmosphere and forms of the time.
At this important time for nation-building, each of us should do our part and commit to ensuring that everyone is treated fairly and respectfully in today's society.
