Text D. The doctors in the Great Patriotic War
The Soviet people suffered from bitter trials during the Great Patriotic War against nazi Germany. The Soviet public health system withstood trials honourably.1 The people of the noble profession "soldiers of life" had made a great contribution to our victory.
Over 200,000 doctors and 0,5 million medical personnel's worked in the front and rear2. They had to give medical aid in the difficult conditions. Operations, dressings and evacuation of the wounded continued for many hours, days and nights. They did not think about danger, sleep or rest.
During the Great Patriotic War over 72% of the wounded and 90% of the sick officers and soldiers were returned to the army.
One of the participants of the storm of Sapun-Hill wrote: "I am a witness3 of heroism of medical people in the front. They are heroes twice".

Burdenko an outstanding scientist and chief surgeon of the Soviet Army became its first President.
