Writes blogger Sergey Anashkevich:
Today I will tell about one installation that is exhibited in the Museum of St. Michael's Sheremetyevo casemated battery of Sevastopol.
This Soviet machine-gun point, is located here during the final phase of the defense of Sevastopol in 1942. Sailors defending battery could survive only three days. Or rather three long days.
