More about delivery
Svetlana Aleksievich's book "Zinc Boys" is dedicated to the war in Afghanistan, when our Soviet military died on foreign soil for ten years - from 1979 to 1989. The truth about that war was carefully concealed: the state, through the media, promoted the need and success of "providing international financial assistance to the friendly people of Afghanistan." As a result, the Afghan war for a long time for the commoner remained unknown, smooth in appearance, and most importantly - almost bloodless. Newspapers published articles about the successful military operations of Soviet troops in Afghanistan, where there were almost no casualties among our contingent, and the losses of the enemy, on the contrary, far exceeded ... But increasingly finished school ... It was not allowed to look inside the coffin, the funeral was not advertised, and relatives were not even told the real cause of death of their children ... And those who returned alive could not find themselves in a peaceful life. This war did not seem to exist. There were only crippled and dead boys ... And not only in body but also in soul.
