The first version of this Russian sing was written almost 40 years ago. It was about the combat action in Afghanistan in the 1980s. In this sing a soldier writes the mail to his sister. Then this sing was rewritten during war in Chechnya. Now some words were change for this war. You may find these variants typing "ты только маме не говори".

when my father returned in 1947, with only one leg, injured in 1945 in Adolfs big fight, I was a little child and knew nothing about war. During my life I learned: war never ends ! In my brain and in the stories of my father was something that overcomes: that he was saved once on the battlefield by Russian soldiers, once by one Russian farmer, once by the Medical Service . Why? Those 4 years during all fights he learned the Russian language, was interested in Russian Historie , visites all churches and buildings and tought his 5 children, to accept every nation .... it is the best I learned in my life. Peace to all people.Peace to this Russian soldier.

@@albertkkim Do some research. So many quotes are wrongly attributed to Stalin, especially during to cold war, to paint the image of a evil dictator. About the Ukrainian farmers and people starving, I assume you are talking about the Holodomor. First things first, it was by no means a man made famine. This image is painted by Ukrainian nationalists, but in reality it was due to a combination of factors, such as the fact that the USSR at that point in time did not have a fully developed agricultural system, relying mainly on grain, which inevitably caused famine when their harvests failed. In addition, kulaks destroyed their crops and machines and killed their livestock due to collectivisation, which further compounded the issue. Important to note that the grain quotas for the Ukrainian SSR was lowerd by 60 percent, if I remembered correctly.
