Transcription
[Music] The Red Army has upset all the calculations of Hitler. The Blitz Greek against the Soviet Union has turned into a prolonged and bloody war. Heat. Heat. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] What lies can gurgles invent to cover the fascist losses in planes and tanks captured and divisions shattered by the Red Army? [Music] How little these Hitlerite cutthroats resemble an unconquerable army. [Music] for their country, for victory over the hated enemy. No sacrifices are too dear for the Russian people. Metallergists increase the output of iron and steel. The army is amply supplied with tanks, artillery, planes, and shells. [Music] Day and night, an army of oil workers drill the rich fields in the oil regions. Few regions turn out hundreds of thousands of tons of oil. [Music] Tanks and planes experience no lack of fuel, nor will they ever lack fuel. [Music] In the south steps of the Dun, in the fertile fields of Kazakhstan, everywhere over their vast lands, the Soviet people gather the fruits of their free labor. Bread as well as iron and oil is amply supplied to the great army and country risen in defense of honor and freedom. [Music] To this the peoples of the Soviet Union devote everything, their labor, all their energy, their very blood. [Music] Hundreds of thousands of donors present their blood to the country for their wounded brothers fighting at the front. [Music] Throughout [Music] the country, Soviet women and Girls are ready for Red Cross work at the front. [Music] How many of these girls work at the front under enemy fire? How many the men they have saved from death by their heroism? All the people of the Soviet Union are selflessly at work for victory over bloody fascism. [Music]
