They had to do any work. They helped the front as best they could: the slogan "Everything for the front, everything for Victory" was attached to carts loaded with bread and milk.

Anastasia Ivanovna worked at a military plant evacuated to Kemerovo from the Moscow region in addition. According to her, the contribution of the workers in the rear was no less important than the military feat of soldiers. She remembers well the well-known truth about the importance of the rear for achieving Victory.
