Absolutely all photos in the historical folio are signed. Inscriptions were found that contain the "yat" and the ending "ery", ousted from use by the reform of Russian spelling in 1918, messages from the troops of the Polish and Red Army. The book also contains a photograph where, most likely, the German soldier, a Wehrmacht soldier, left the captured inscription. Modern photographs were taken by three people from the creative team, archive photographs were taken from the collection of Andrei Dolgovsky, who has long been collecting old photographs. Thanks to a retro lover, the book contains the inscription of one of the most famous “graffitists” in the Brest Fortress of Leo Trotsky, who left the inscription “No peace, no war, People's Commissar Leon Trotsky December 1917” during peace talks on the wall in the billiard room of the Officers' Assembly.
One of the most interesting and mysterious places of the Brest Fortress is the Terespol fortification.
“We examined each stone in detail, found a certain number of inscriptions left by soldiers of the Russian Empire, artillerymen of the Polish Army. An inscription and drawing of an anti-Semitic character was found on the Terespol fortification, we thought about it for a long time, we were inclined to believe that a Wehrmacht soldier left ninety percent of it, because it is difficult to imagine a Red or Soviet Army soldier who would have such hatred for people, I knew as the word "Jew" is spelled in German. In Brest, at the rumor level, there was information that Jews could have been on the Terespol fortification during the Nazi occupation, possibly brought in for some work. ”
