Tag #153523 - Interview #101736 (Polina Levina)

On 22nd June 1941 I heard on the radio that the Great Patriotic War had begun. At 12 o’clock Molotov 17 spoke on the radio. He said that fascist Germany had attacked the USSR without an announcement of the war. It was strange that I didn’t feel any fear. I was sure that the war would last a few days at the most – this was what we were all told.
