Последняя патриотическая — это книга о ненастной военной осени 2014 года в Донецкой Народной Республике.

Армия Донецкой Республики".

World War II was fought on a scale unlike anything before or since in human history, and the unfathomable casualty counts are attributable in large measure to the carnage inflicted between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union during Hitler's invasion of Russia and Stalin's desperate defense.
