Popis produktu: Honor the military heroes of the past with this exquisite replica of the 2nd Parachute Brigade Medal. This remarkable award serves as a significant reminder of the bravery and courage exhibited by parachute soldiers who valiantly defended our nation during numerous conflicts and operations.The 2nd Czechoslovak Independent Parachute Brigade was established during World War II in the Soviet Union as a combat unit primarily composed of Slovak soldiers, who constituted 70% of its members. Czech soldiers made up only 14%, with the unit consisting of approximately 2,000 to 3,000 men. As dissatisfaction grew among soldiers in the independent Slovak state, who fought alongside the Germans against the Soviet Union, many began defecting to Soviet captivity. By early 1943, realities on the battlefield prompted full military units to transition to Soviet control or join Ukrainian partisan groups.The Brigade?s official formation took place on January 19, 1944, and it played a crucial role in the preparations for the anticipated uprising in Slovakia. The soldiers underwent rigorous training to become combat-ready, with a significant portion of the brigade made up of volunteers from various backgrounds.This beautifully crafted replica medallion not only encapsulates the historical significance of the 2nd Parachute Brigade but also makes for a unique addition to any military collection.
