The history of the holiday takes its beginning on January 28 (January 15 at the old style) of 1918. On this day, on the background of the World War II ongoing in Europe, the Council of People's Commissars (the actual government of Soviet Russia), led by his chairman Vladimir Lenin, adopted a decree on the organization of the Workers' and Peasant Red Army (RKKU).

In the first days of January 1919, the Soviet authorities remembered the approaching anniversary of the Decree of the Council of Sovnarkom about the organization of the Red Army. On January 10, the Chairman of the Higher Military Inspectorate of the Republic of Redek Nikolai Zdovsky sent a proposal to the Presidium to celebrate the anniversary of the creation of the Red Army, timed to celebrate the celebration of the next Sunday before or after January 28. However, due to the late submission of the application, the decision was not accepted.

Then the initiative of the celebration of the first anniversary of the Red Army took over the Moscow Council. January 24, 1919 His Presidium, who at that time headed Lion Kamenev, decided to dry these celebrations to the day of the Red Gift. This day was arranged by the relevant commission at the Central Executive Commission in order to assist the fighting red-Armenians. The day of the Red Gift was appointed on February 16, but he did not have time to spend it on time. Therefore, the day of the Red Gift and the Day of the Red Army, dedicated to him, decided to celebrate the next day after February 16, i.e. February 23.

In 1920-1921 The day of the Red Army was not celebrated.

On January 27, 1922, the Presidium of the Central Army published a decree on the 4th anniversary of the Red Army, which said: "In accordance with the Resolution of the IX All-Russian Congress of the Councils about the Red Army, the Presidium of the All-Russian WTCIK makes the attention of the executive committees on the coming anniversary of the creation of the Red Army (February 23)."

In 1923, the resolution of the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee, adopted on January 18, said: "On February 23, 1923, the Red Army will celebrate the 5th anniversary of its existence. On this day, five years ago, the decree of the Council of People's Commissars from January 28 was published. of the same year, which was found to start the working and peasant red army, the deformation of the proletarian dictatorship. " However, this statement did not correspond to the truth, because The mentioned decree was printed in central newspapers almost immediately after his adoption.

The 10th anniversary of the Red Army in 1928, as well as all the previous ones, noted as the anniversary of the decree of the Council of the Council of the Red Army from 28 (15 to the old style) of January 1918, but the date of publication, contrary to the truth, was associated directly from February 23.

In 1938, the "short-term history of the WCP (b)" was a fundamentally new version of the origin of the date of the holiday, not related to the decree of the Council. In the book, it was stated that in 1918, a decisive response was given to the German invaders under Narva and Pskov. Their promotion to Petrograd was suspended. The day of repulsion the troops of German imperialism - February 23 was the birthday of the young Red Army. "

Later, in the order of the People's Commissar of the Defense of the USSR of February 23, 1942. The wording was changed: "The young detachments of the Red Army, who first entered the war, the headlong broke the German invaders under Pskov and Narva on February 23, 1918. That is why the day on February 23 was declared the day Birth of the Red Army. "

In 1951, the last interpretation of the holiday appeared. In the "History of the Civil War in the USSR" it was stated that in 1919 the first anniversary of the Red Army was celebrated "in a commemorative day of mobilizing workers on the defense of the socialist partician, the mass entry of workers in the Red Army, the wide formation of the first detachments and parts of the new army."

In the federal law of March 13, 1995, the N32-FZ "On the Days of the Military Glory of Russia", February 23, wearing the official name "The Day of the Victory of the Red Army over the Kaiser Forces of Germany in 1918 - the Day of Defenders of the Fatherland."

In accordance with the changes made to the Federal Law "On the Days of the Military Glory of Russia" by the Federal Law of April 15, 2006, from the official description of the holiday, the words "Victory Day of the Red Army over the Kaiser Troops of Germany (1918)" are excluded, and also set out in the only The concept of "Defender".

Material prepared on the basis of open sources information

Now on February 23, we celebrate the Day of Defender of the Fatherland, and before he was called the Day of the Soviet Army and the Navy. Here, perhaps, all that most of us knows about the history of this holiday. And, meanwhile, this story is completely ambiguous, and there are still disputes between historians on the occurrence of the date on February 23. In today's article I will try to briefly tell you the history of the holiday, which we celebrate February 23 and highlight the controversial moments.

The origins of the holiday should be sought in 1918, since it was this year decrees on the creation of the Workers' and Peasant Red Army (RKKA) and the working and peasant Red Fleet (RKKF) were signed. The first world war went, and the young Soviet state needed an army to protect. However, none of these decrees was signed on February 23. RKKKA was created on January 28, and the RKKF February 11.

It was believed that on February 23, the Red Army won a major victory over the German troops under Pskov and Narva. However, many historians questioned this fact and considered him invented myth. The fact is that there are no documentary evidence of this fact. There are even any mention of any significant victories in the newspapers of those days. And even a year after these events (it would seem, on the anniversary of the holiday), the newspaper did not write anything about it. Such mentions began to appear only much later.

In 1922, a decree was signed on the solemn celebration on February 23, the fourth anniversary of the birth of the Red Army. And in previous years, the holiday for some reason was not celebrated.

Jun K.F. 1923 Red Army Parade

In 1923, the 5th anniversary of the Red Army was widely and solemnly across the country.

It turns out that despite the fact that the Red Army itself was created in 1918, and the holiday takes its beginning from there, a truly well-known holiday began to become only 4 years later.

Since 1946, the holiday began to be called Day of the Soviet Army and Navy.

In 1995, the State Duma of Russia adopts the Federal Law "On the Days of the Military Glory of Russia". According to this law on February 23, it is as " The Victory Day of the Red Army over the Kaisero troops of Germany in 1918 - Defender Day of the Fatherland".

But already in 2002, the State Duma takes a decree on renaming on February 23 simply in Defender of the Fatherland DayAnd since then it becomes a non-working day (official weekend). Thus, the description of the holiday was removed with the victories of the Red Army over the Kaiser troops on February 23, 1918, as an unreliable fact.

Why Defender Day of Fatherland is celebrated on February 23

So why is the Day of Defender of the Fatherland noted on February 23? Where did this date come from? After all, in fact, it is not a birthday RKKE, no birthday RKKF.

I will immediately say that there is no accurate answer to this question. And versions there are several.

The first version.

I have already voiced this version above. For a long time she was an official version. This is a victory under Pskov and Narva over the Kaiser troops on February 23, 1918. However, this fact did not find confirmation.

Second version.

Initially, the anniversary of the creation of the Red Army wanted to celebrate at the date of its creation on January 28. However, due to bureaucratic wires, they did not have time to this date, and it was decided in this 1919 to combine the day of the Red Army on the day of the Red Gift (the collection of material means for the Red Army), which in the previous year was celebrated on February 17. However, in that 1919, the date of February 17 fell on Monday, and it was decided that these 2 holidays move to the next Sunday, which was February 23. Allegedly since then the day of the Red Army and began to be celebrated on February 23.

Third version.

There is another interesting version associated with the transition of the calendar to a new style. March 8 was a festive day for all internationalists. Before the revolution (according to old style), this holiday has been celebrated on February 23. And after the transition to a new style, the habit of celebrating something on February 23 remained. I was looking for some close dates, remembered the bottom of the creation of the Red Army, so there was an excuse for February 23 (immediately remembered on November 7 and 4). So we received 2 holidays, famous for the people as male and women's day.

So I told you a brief history of February 23 - the Day of Defender of the Fatherland - with different versions of the origin of this holiday regarding the date of the celebration.

Whatever it was, February 23 - the Day of Defender of the Fatherland - Favorite Mostly Celebrated Day, in which we congratulate all the men, because they are all our defenders!

Recently, the holiday is increasingly losing her political and military coloring, turning simply on the day of men. On this day, we thank our men for their strength, masculinity, love, care, support, support, just for the fact that they are near and we caress.

Congratulate and you are all men who are with you, regardless of their age.
