Frontline at Stalin Line

 

On 28 August, Stalin Line hosted a frontline event involving military-history clubs portraying the Red Army, Wehrmacht, Waffen-SS and partisans.
The day began with the laying of flowers in memory of the defenders of the Minsk Fortified Region by M. A. Akulich, Head of the State Traffic Inspectorate Directorate of the Internal Affairs Department of the Minsk Regional Executive Committee, staff from the State Traffic Inspectorate Directorate of the Mogilev Regional Executive Committee, and reenactors from the Control-16 Military-History Club.
 
 
The reenactors from Control-16 then presented an interactive exhibition devoted to the work of internal affairs officers in the USSR and the former Soviet and post-Soviet republics. Visitors to Stalin Line were able to see the equipment, weapons, specialist equipment and personal protective equipment used by law-enforcement officers.
 
 
In the afternoon, the frontline event featuring Great Patriotic War-era clubs began. A particularly striking episode was the partisans’ act of sabotage on the railway and their brief clashes with Wehrmacht units.
