The Great Patriotic War. Ordinary situations cannot seriously influence the course of the global world conflict, which unfolded on thousands of kilometers of the front of a vast country, in which tens of millions of soldiers are participating. But it was the human qualities of everyone who stood to the death with weapons in their hands in this harsh time, where all the forces of good and evil came together, and everyone was ready to do anything for the sake of victory, that became the force that crushed Nazism.

The story of the Podolsk cadets’ heroic stand outside Moscow in October 1941. Cadets were sent to the Ilyinsky line, fighting alongside units from the Soviet 43rd Army to hold back the German advance until reinforcements arrived. Hopelessly outnumbered, young men laid down their lives in a battle lasting almost two weeks to obstruct the far superior German forces advancing towards Moscow. Around 3,500 cadets and their commanding officers were sent to hold up the last line of defense outside Moscow. Most of them remained there for eternity.
