βοΈApril 13, 1934, marked the end of the 2-month-long operation to rescue the passengers of the steamboat #Chelyuskin. It was crushed by icepacks & sank in the Chukchi Sea with 104 people trapped on the ice. The pilots - first Heroes of the Soviet Union! - made 23 risky flights https://t.co/MzzhBVdwXn — PolitiTweet.org
