Around the memorable event in honor of the victory in the Great Patriotic War once again trying to inflate the scandal. This time the occasion was the shoulder bandages of the pupils of the educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They saw a hint of the form of the SS.
It seems that not everyone in St. Petersburg likes the parades dedicated to the victory in the Great Patriotic War. How else to explain the fact that the event regularly turns out to be at the center of strange and unprovoked scandals.
This time the “questions” arose to the form of pupils of educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. During the rehearsals, the girls on the right put on a bandage with the number of the rank.
On a red background is a white circle in which a black number is inscribed. Yes, and the shape of a dark color.
— Tactfully if, then come up for a parade in honor of May 9th red headbands with a white circle — this is a dubious idea. And if it is not tactful, but as it is, then the amount of various kinds of delusions generated from virtually any official structure, it is already seriously frustrating, ”said blogger and journalist Nikolai Kamnev.
It is noteworthy that just a few months ago, the author of this statement was the general director of the state budgetary institution, the Gorod + TV channel. And even earlier, he also published in his LiveJournal personal photos in an SS form with a swastika. On the indignant remarks of the readers, the publicist fatherly explained that «this is Halloween.»
The English liked it
This is the question: «Who are the judges?» Even more interesting is that the scandal caused a deja vu effect on many. Exactly a year ago, similar publications began to appear on the network, stating that during a parade rehearsal some girls in an “SS uniform” frightened passersby.
In this regard, just in case, quote the Charter of the internal service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, according to which the inscription on the red bandage is applied with white paint or sewn with white threads. However, girls are not servicemen. And bandages are used specifically for rehearsals, we will not see them at the parade.
However, it does not bother anyone to look for and find a black cat in a dark room. Even those who are not without sin. However, photos with pretty girls are happy to be reprinted in the Western press. For example, this time they decided to mark the photo in the British Daily Mail.
Who wants to cancel the parades?
By the way, almost every time the Russian military parades cause a very strange reaction among a certain public. And all the time amazing inventiveness is manifested in order to find something else bad. For example, several years ago, in the Western press, the organizers of the parade in honor of May 9 were accused of sexism because of a combination of boots and too short skirts, according to foreign journalists.
In this connection, we can recall how in winter some St. Petersburg opposition deputies were outraged by the very fact of holding a parade dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the complete liberation of Leningrad from the Nazi blockade. They wrote petitions and letters to the head of St. Petersburg with a request to cancel the event. But Alexander Beglov still listened to veterans who liked the idea of the parade. After all, the Day of the lifting of the blockade is not only grief, but also the memory of military feat. And one does not interfere with another.
Or does it still hinder someone that so many people keep the memory of the Great Patriotic War?
