Sergey Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 War it always sadly and badly.There is not a difference Russia, Germany,Vietnam, Afghanistan.But 1941-1945 years of decision of question at existences of nation of USSR.Pressure of Germany and countries of axis was very strong. It is needed to take into account the features of national character of Russians.What stronger pressure on this people the stronger counteraction.All of it results in appearance of such picturesVery pitifully, whatever the my English lets me it is good to write about it.

Christian Zulus Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Gentlemen,such pictures with such "small" heroes had been the result of Nazi-Germany's aggression against the people of the Soviet Union. Most of them lost their parents and families.Best regards Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergey Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 It's called propaganda. I think here children of 7-11 years. I think the child difficultly to ask to participate in propagands work. It seems to me is the present emotions .I went to school and was a member VLCSM in the beginning of the seventieth years. It is difficult to you to understand as we trusted in ideals of communism. I speak about the seventieth years. On pictures children of the fortieth, children of war are presented. I THINK WHAT NOT CORRECTLY TO CARRY ALL TO PROPAGANDA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Why is it so hard to believe that people of any age and of any politics can show patriotism and bravery? Unless, of course, one sees those as mere products of "propaganda", wherever they are encountered? I guess you could argue that, but then you'd have to apply it equally everywhere and in every era.
