E.ON IBU World Cup Biathlon

In the Human and Nature Museum an exhibition project started working. This exhibition reveals true and verified facts from the everyday lives of the soldiers of Afghanistan and Chechen Wars, taken from the Book of the memory “Afghanistan 1979-1989. Chechnya 1994-2009”. The book fragments favoured the atmosphere of patriotism and the feeling of love to the Motherland.

The time and the years wipe off a lot from the memory, but it usually works selective: unordinary, dramatic, affected the fates of lots of people events are unforgivable and these memories are often brining us back to thinking about those days. Such unforgivable memories for lots of people will be the events of Afghanistan (1979-1989) and Chechnya (1994-2009).

The most soldiers of Afghanistan and Chechen Wars were young men brought into the wars right from the school banks. Young men having no life experience ended up in unwonted hostile environment. Their attitude to the events was full of emotions. What was the life of our soldiers, what made them glad or sad being far away from home. It all reflected in the letters, diaries, verses represented on the exhibition “I have a homesick, I wish I were home”.

Human and Nature Museum waits for you!
