Proletarskugol' trust in Donetsk, Ukraine (after 1975 it stay a part of the Donetskugol' coal-mining complex).
Btw., Donetsk was founded in 1869 by a Welsh businessman, John Hughes... ;) |

Strictly speaking, the 20th anniversary of Victory, but not in the Second World War. In the Great Patriotic War (1941--1945). |

"It was a part of WWII. It started in June 22, 1941 and ended May 9, 1945."

Nope... ;) You said: "I should say between "Barbarossa" in june 1941 and the end of WWII ?"...
The end of WWII was September 2, 1945... |

Getting OT but in the 70ies Finnish history teaching stopped somewhere in the early 1900. People who wrote history books forgot that we childrefn did not know that time, or the writers did not want to write about that period...
So even if I was in school for 12 years I know much less than many others!
Best regards,
Juhani |

How much I have understood from a short studying of this problem, in Europe the world modern history is not studied. It is strange... |

Strange and very annoying for me who wants to know history!
And hopefully Russian history writing & telling does not get biased again like some have said might be happening. In history we must get all sides opinion to make one true story!
Best regards,
Juhani |

"To Captain of Second Rank Stepanov S.S. on 20th anniversary of DVF (_____ Military Fleet - (not sure what first letter "D" stands for maybe someone can help)) for achieved successes in battlefield and political training. From the assistant people's commissioner of VMF(Military Sea Fleet) of USSR."
Very cool!

Äóíàéñêàÿ âîåííàÿ ôëîòèëèÿ -- Danubian Military Flotilla.
The same acronym had Dnieper Military Flotilla.
See this flotillas history there: http://ussrfleet.1939-45.ru/flotilii.php
P.S. But I don't understand how to correlate the "XX anniversary" (from what year? 1940? So: 1960?) and the "commissar"... "Íàðîäíûé êîìèññàðèàò ÂÌÔ ÑÑÑÐ" (People's Commissoriat of VMF of USSR) was exist from 1937 to 1946 years... |

Probably because ÄÂÔ(DVF) stands for Äàëüíå Âîñòî÷íûé Ôëîò - Far-East Fleet or Pacific Ocean Fleet created way before WWII. |

Nope. The Pacific Ocean Fleet (TOF) had only one name (was created in 1932 as I remember).
It was the "Dal'nevostochnij front (DVF)", but not a fleet. |
