Zainsk searchers discovered the legendary T-34 tank in the ground during an expedition in the Volgograd region.

      The search team "Guard" found a tank in the fields where the Battle of Stalingrad took place. During planned work at the site of fierce battles near Stalingrad, Zainsk searchers discovered a Soviet T-34 tank. The machine had lain in the ground for several decades, but despite its long time in the soil, the tank was identified by the characteristic details of its hull and turret. These design elements left no doubt: before the fighters of the team was a legend of the Great Patriotic War. – The condition of the find allows us to speak of the high historical value of the artifact. For us, this discovery has become not only a professional success but also an emotional shock. Each such object is a silent testimony to the heroism of Soviet soldiers who fought on the banks of the Volga. The future fate of the tank will be decided jointly with historians and specialists, but it is already clear: this T-34 will become yet another important link in preserving the memory of the great feat of the people in the Battle of Stalingrad, noted the participants of the search team "Guard."
