#OTD⚔️ in 1943 the #RedArmy soldier Alexander #Matrosov sacrificed his life by blocking a Nazi machine gun pillbox with his body. He disabled the machine gun, allowing his comrades to continue the attack. 🕯️ During #WWII over 3⃣0⃣0⃣ soldiers repeated this feat. #FacesOfVictory https://t.co/jc0mUG1yXw — PolitiTweet.org
