July 26 - Day of the paratrooper

Parachutist day is not official, but it is widely celebrated in Russia by military paratroopers, people involved in parachuting, and just amateurs. Its history dates back to the 1930s. July 26 that year, Soviet pilots, led by V. Mukhortov, first made a descent with a parachute over the city of Voronezh. After the commission of such a successful event, by order of the Air Force Research Institute, military pilots were equipped with rescue equipment. On this day, four more leaps were made. And already for three days with a parachute jumped more than 30 people.

This type of rescue operations quickly went into circulation, and already in that year jumps were made in various extreme conditions and of various types: from high altitude and at night, and into water, and into snow, and also protracted, which then became so popular with followers.

The first women who made the jump with a parachute were A. Chirkov, V. Kuleshov, V. Fedorov. This event happened in 1930. They were strong people who possessed such willpower, courage, fearlessness that only Russians can have.

Congratulations on the day of the parachutist in verse

With a parachute oh, not just
Jump, run and fly.
Even if you are small,
You can do this!
You have to be brave, brave,
Do not be afraid of anything,
It is very important to be able,
To jump so easily!
***
With a parachute, like a bird,
You fly in the clouds.
And down to the ground,
You stand on your feet!
***
Parachute to you, like a brother.
Together you are very friendly.
With him you hang in the clouds
And you see everything from above!
***
With a parachute in a pair of jumping,
Do not be afraid now, my friend,
And fearlessly merging into one with him,
Conquering the sky, be invincible!
***
In the wonderful day of the paratrooper,
Wearing his glorious parachute,
And conquering the sky quickly,
You'll find peace there, shelter.
Beloved on top of contemplating,
You walk like a bird,
Happily feeling happiness,
You will smoothly land!
