Photos above. And I started writing this post the day before yesterday, before Mr. President decided to do arithmetic and count the pros and cons, and on another occasion. However, since Mr President mentioned this topic, we are talking about it in this context.

No, of course I knew that the USSR was a fake state. That everything was stolen there. From start to finish. From the hydroelectric power plant on the Dnieper and the industrialization made entirely by the Germans and the Americans, from the Landliz, which makes their capital not lie above the Urals, but still in the same place, from the Cosmos and the nuclear program made by the captured Germans, through Makarov and TT guns, which were Walther PP and Beretta, through the entire automotive industry, all electronics - and all the way to ice cream, yes, yes, the most delicious "saveckaja" ice cream, made according to the American line and the American recipe he personally brought Anastas Mikojan, and toilet paper, the first production of which began in Sjasstroj after the first satellite, after a manned space flight, and after the Americans landed on the moon.

Think about it. The man was already walking on the moon. In the great country that conquered everything, they wiped their asses with burdock and hadn’t even heard of such a miracle as a roll of paper. We also used newspapers in the cities as early as the ninety-first century. If it weren't for the American factory.

I have written about this many times. I will not repeat again. There are many compilations online. From the same Mirovic. From it, a resident of a large country can learn that his best, unique triangular milk bag is the fruit of the development of the Tetrapak company from the 1930s. He came to the USSR only half a century later.

Yeah, I knew all that. That everything in this country was stolen. From start to finish. Nothing of my own. Not even their own symbols.

I also knew about the best Soviet pop music, where two-thirds of the hits — if not even nine-tenths — were also just stolen Western songs adapted to Soviet lyrics.

But, man, not to that extent.

For a practical anthem ...

On February 1, 1943, an American B-17 "Flying Fortress" bomber called "All American" and a German Messerschmitt Bf-109 fighter collided in the skies over Tunisia. Both fighters clashed, one was shot down and the other, whose pilot was either wounded or killed, hit the rear of a B-17 piloted by Lt. Kendrick R. Bragg of the U.S. 414th Squadron.

The impact caused the German hunter to crash. On the other hand, the left horizontal stabilizer and elevator completely tore off the Fortress aircraft, both right engines failed and stopped, and oil leaked heavily from the left engine. The vertical rudder was damaged, the hull was perforated, and miraculously preserved pieces of the structure clung to it. Radio, electrical and oxygen systems were also damaged. The tail shooter was trapped in the cockpit as the connection to the tail section of the aircraft was destroyed. This proved to be a good thing as the weight of the shooter ensured the stability of the tail piece.

Two and a half hours later, the plane landed at the nearest English airport, just 40 kilometers from its base. Surprisingly, none of the crew members were injured.

After landing, the tail of the plane fell to the ground.

This incident triggered a more canonical version, which was more mythologized - the plane was supposed to be on its way to the target, but still flew to the target and carried out the bombing, causing the air stream that invaded the bomber to throw the shooter into the destroyed part , so they had to pull it out with a loop. The crew then removed all the parachutes and tried to somehow attach the tail to the fuselage. And that on the way back they lagged behind the squadron, left alone and attacked again by two "Me-109s", with deck shooters firing from above through the hole.

They are not. The crew immediately put on their parachutes, the squadron did not leave the plane and no one tied their tails with a noose - this is stupid and impossible.

But still, you have to agree that this is a completely fantastic, amazing story. The courage and sacrifice of a German pilot - yes,

*** Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) ***

Yes, courage is not a moral and ethical norm, it is just a character trait, even the bandits of the 1990s did not lack courage, for example - and the forbidden strength of the American crew.

As a person who has a terrible fear of heights, I can’t even imagine what “Charlie on the Tail” - a tail shooter - experienced. And, more importantly, how he flew to the next flight.

By the way, one of the caretakers was named Mihail Žuk.

We fly, we sway in the dark ... ... on the word of honor and on one wing. A song that practically became the anthem of the Soviet bomber air force. A hit that remained in Soviet chat rooms for 70 years. There is no man who would be a pioneer or even in October and not know this song. Vladimir Alexandrovich, as a man involved in pop music, probably knows this.

Vladimir Alexandrovich, did you know that this song was stolen from the American song Comin 'In On A Wing And A Prayer? Literally “flying on wings and with prayer”.

The song was supposed to be written in 1943 after the “All American” story, but was actually based on the flight of a B-17 “The Southern Comfort” aircraft piloted three weeks later by Hugh G. Ashcraft Jr. The aircraft was severely damaged by anti-aircraft fire, had a damaged rudder and nose, in engine no. 3 but the oil pipe burst and it burned.

As the Southern Comfort approached the British coast, Ashcraft told the crew on the radio, "Whoever wants to should pray."

And it was this American foxtrot that sang Utesov. And this song became practically an unofficial anthem of all Soviet air forces for seventy years. And the heroism of unprecedented Soviet pilots has become an axiom that is not discussed.

Well, and about Americans, of course, simply forgotten.

More specifically, not only forgotten, but deliberately pushed into the background. At first, it was not disguised that it was a reprint. He didn’t show off, but he wasn’t hidden either. And then it was. The mere hint that the Americans, the British, or, God forbid, the Germans might have committed some heroic act, was akin to high treason. Glorifying Americans - yes, you could be expelled from the institute!

It is a belittling of the feat of the Soviet people.

And, well ... Okay, just stealing or appropriating things.

Okay, steal and appropriate the fruits of someone else’s copyrighted work.

That's half the problem. That would just be theft.

But - they stole the meanings.

The songs weren’t just stolen.

They stole someone else’s heroic deed - and appropriated it just for themselves!

The state, which had accumulated only corpses for the enemy, stole heroism from those who helped it survive, and appropriated it. And that only to himself.

Just think about it.

And now, on Victory Day, another bacchanalia of this place will begin.

In the United States, there are documented examples of heroism, such as “All American,” for which one must die. In the USSR, we have completely fake Sailors, 28 Panfilovs, and either real or mythologized Gastello or Maslov.

In addition, the real heroism and feats were also the cart and the small cart.

However, they hung fake ones on the flag.

And that is the essence of this education. Fake from start to finish. From things to meanings. From skittles to heroism.

It is impossible to fall into this well. It has no bottom.

So, Vladimir Alexandrovich. Remember. When you get a new spokesperson, let him prepare a collection of what was stolen in the USSR.

And don't forget.

The USSR was a completely beastly formation. It cannot create anything by itself. Absolutely. Not at all. Not a single good thing.

And the ones you think were there - stolen all, in full, from start to finish.

Then they erased them from memory and appropriated them.

And to say the same in Poland, which, unlike you, still remembers the Prague massacre - look for it, is a suburb of Warsaw - when the Suvorov Cossacks killed 25,000 people is about as if Angela Merkel had come to Babja Jar and said the Third Reich was both good and bad.
