The history of humanity has many faces and many facets. Objective reality, usually estimated from different perspectives based on their beliefs, understanding and interests. Often the same event in different historical periods get the polar opposite of evaluation and synthesis. Perhaps it is safe to say only that the reflection of historical events is always much poorer and poorer the events themselves. Under one condition - if it is not a photograph. Documentary camera lens and integrity who has caught a moment, more than any invention, any intelligent assessment of any truer word.
This album is dedicated to Afghanistan, a country whose fate is intertwined with the fate of Russia has for several decades, and memories of events which do not release their members so far.

These Afghan valley, which fought the Soviet guys that gave their lives for the sake of his comrades and commanders who are on a par with Kulikov field, Shipko, Sebastopol, Berlin ... No matter when or in what country the soldiers were killed. After all, military heroism is not being rethought and reevaluated over the years, with the change of government or economic policy. He - the value of the absolute, eternal. The military feat - it's moral capital of all mankind ... But because Russia's footprint on Afghan soil will remain forever.
