And in the Pacific Ocean they finished their march

Exactly a month left before the great holiday for which the whole of Russia is preparing - the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. The Museum-Reserve of the History of the Far East named after V.K. Arsenyev is in full swing preparations for an exhibition about events that were little known to the general public, which lasted even "117 days after the Victory."

The project will tell about the last stage of World War II - the defeat of the Japanese Kwantung Army, the liberation of China and Korea, Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands. But, according to the staff of the Arsenyev Museum, the exhibition will be much broader than the theme.

"Our exhibition is about the history of Russian-Japanese and Soviet-Japanese relations since the end of the XIX century. This is a narrative about the work of the rear and the release of ammunition by industrial enterprises of the Primorsky Territory, about how the offensive operations in Manchuria were prepared and took place by the forces of the two Far Eastern fronts, commented Angelica Petruk, Scientific Secretary of the Museum.
