It was possible because it was the war for our independence and liberation.
Because all people of our multinational country fought together on the fronts and everybody from children to old men worked in the rear.

It was a great effort of all our country.
There were a lot of heroes (about 12000 become the titles the Hero of SU), a great number of brave actions.

Why was it possible?
It was possible because people fought for their native country, for every town, for every house, for every piece of their native land.

The belief into their families helped our defenders very much, gave them strength to fight, to be brave, to do heroic actions.
