The secret wars of the USSR from Stalin to Gorbachev. The main documents and certificates. Dolmatov V.

These wars are still in many ways to remain secret: about the participation of our soldiers and officers in local wars and armed conflicts abroad for a long time, he was unjustly silent. All the more valuable are the materials that are published in the book - until recently, they stood the Griff "Top Secret". Attracting documents from many state and departmental archives, the authors help readers understand why Soviet people fought and died in a foreign land. It was strictly forbidden to take pictures there, but many military personnel tried to bypass the prohibitions to capture themselves “as a keepsake”. These simple photos taken in the last century also entered the book. Unlike the heroes of the Great Patriotic War, obelisks and monuments were not erected in honor of the participants in the secret wars, their names were not called the streets and factories... So this book is a tribute to everyone who fulfilled their sacred duty before the homeland from its borders.
