Солдаты и партизаны евреи в Советской армии в годы Второй мировой войны (Russian)

When Adolf Hitler had his army invade the Soviet Union in 1941, well over a million Jews were marked for death. At the same time, over 450,000 Jews throughout the Soviet Union—both men and women—joined the Soviet Army. By war’s end in 1945, 142,000 of them had died fighting, and over 100,000 of them had been cited for bravery. This short film begins with a letter written by 19-year old Meyer Goldstein, then introduces us to the Jewish soldiers who fought back.
