The action "Immortal Regiment" will be held may 9 in fifteen countries, more than 1,100 localities, in the process, citizens will carry portraits of their relatives who participated in the great Patriotic war.
1st time the action was organized in Tomsk in 2012. Two years later she became nationwide. When there are " Immortal Regiment ", the coordinators agreed that the project is not ethical to apply to advertising and PR, this Story is literally about another - about families remember and honor their veterans, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, together with their parents are portraits of grandparents. For this reason, in the ranks of the movement there are no logos of political parties, movements or plants, reports the news Agency.
95% of the cities in which this year will be " Immortal Regiment ", located in the Russian Federation. At the 2nd place of Kazakhstan And Astana and Alma-ATA. He will be in Kyrgyzstan - Bishkek, Belarus - the hero City of Brest. In Ukraine the Action will take place in Dnipropetrovsk - the same as in previous years. And yet Austria, Azerbaijan, Israel, Norway, and other countries." currently maintained correspondence with the organization of our compatriots in the Republic of South Korea. They are registered on the Internet representation, and in the annals of the "Immortal Regiment" will be written the history of these people. Washington has already passed the column "Shelf," said campaign coordinator Tomic Sergei Larenkov. He told me that in Lebanon the initiators of the action as was the community of our fellow citizens." Every place has its own characteristics, and in Lebanon has accepted in principle the theme of war. This is very painful for them. On the street They on the occasion of Victory Day, by itself, will not work. Citizens will gather in enclosed spaces to provide opportunities for these activities, in large palaces, circuses ", - explained Lapenkov. This year the coordinators came a resident of Berlin, which last year was in Russia on may 9 and saw " Immortal Regiment ". It surprised her so much that she has decided that There is where she lives at present at a standstill, too, need something to do. Review Lapenkov;, "the Regiment" Will continue to develop through people." in Ireland, it turns out that the Russian-speaking community is quite close-knit. All who nevertheless communicate in Russian, They are quite cohesive. Every time may 9, they are events - They are doing a rally in Dublin, then in the 1st of the parks spend a picnic. This year these events They will do with the " Immortal regiment ", - said the coordinator of the action." Immortal Regiment " is composed of 2 complementary forms: may 9, held marches, And on the Internet representation project is a folk record. Activists of the event tell family stories related to the war. There are already almost 200 thousand names of hundreds of cities. It is the ability of a person to fix your personal memory, leaving in private, in practice the family archives, information about the veteran. For example, the great-grandson of Yuri Levitan, reading during the war summaries of the Soviet information Bureau, left the story of his grandfather In the current year. There is the Story of his grandfather Garik Martirosjan (showman)." But remember More of the history, which reflects the fate of the country. For example, a Story that has posted one Muscovite, consists of 4 lines: "I was named after my uncle, who in July 1941 and was drafted into the army. He was late to the recruiting point - slept, and for this reason He went to a penal battalion. More than anything We don't know. Grandma until the end of his life he regretted about the fact that she dumped him to sleep at home, " says the head of the Department. There are stories in which the name, surname, patronymic, year of conscription or death Is All that is known. But, At this point of time, the coordinators of the project, It is important to record, because After a while, and it will not." Through the Website "Shelf" citizens are finding one another. For example, relatives are living now in different cities of the country, and suddenly They see their surname. So, a woman from the capital of Russia found frontline friend of the grandmother of the hill. Of these stories a lot. The site starts people communicate with each other. The website Is what unites the whole "Immortal Regiment" not only in Russia But also other countries. Each day adds 5-6 thousand stories, " explains Lapenkov. In 2012, Tomsk correspondents Sergey Larenkov, Sergei Kolotukhin and Igor Dmitriev for the First time held the action "Immortal Regiment" in g. They did not plan a large-scale project, just, words, understood that Each year the parades there are fewer participants in the great Patriotic war. All that was left of them, - the memory of posterity, and photos. So came the idea to call the Tomsk 9 may to stand in the column "Immortal Regiment" with portraits of those who did not live to see another anniversary of the Victory. In the 1st year under the banner of "Immortal Regiment" on Central Avenue Tomsk has passed, according to various estimates, from 5 to 7 thousand people. This was not expecting anyone. Stories about Tomsk shares appeared in practice in all Federal mass media. About the initiative recognized not only in Russia But also in foreign countries." We saw that people matter what They did. The story began to disperse. By 2013 it had already covered about 120 cities in three countries - in Russia, Kyrgyzstan and Ukraine, about 200 thousand people were in different cities within the ranks of the Regiment." This is only what We can calculate, for it had grown and natural events ", - told Lapenkov. In 2014, the year of the 69th anniversary of Victory in the story "the Immortal Regiment" stood over half a million people, six countries. In Tomsk, Barnaul, Tula on the streets with portraits held by 20 thousand people.
