A bit of history

The first salutes were given in 1943 in honor of the liberation of Orel and Belgorod in the Great Patriotic War. These were simple artillery volleys - then no one arranged bright fireworks, since the time was military and harsh. Very often, in honor of the liberation of some settlement, ordinary machine guns were used for salutes. Most often, salutes were fired by flares. A full salute took place only on May 9, 1945. About a thousand anti-aircraft installations took part in it. Then thirty volleys of fireworks were fired. In addition to the roar of guns, there was also a visual range: each gun salvo was accompanied by hundreds of searchlights. According to eyewitnesses, it was a grandiose event.
