In June 1944, the Red Army was preparing to battle for Belarus. Troops moved to the borders of a future offensive by night. Along with tanks cavalry corps went ahead. Despite the fact that the army was advancing to "motor age" the Red Army still maintained cavalry corps. They were used in conjunction with armored units, motorized infantry and aircraft. Soviet cavalry proved that they were still indispensable and could operate effectively in a modern war. If the tank armies were the main body of the Red Army, the cavalry was its long sword. Red Army cavalry Cossacks General Dovatora share memories of their combat routine in military service. Talk about learning the intricacies of the troopers, how to saddle up in arms, how to handle horses, how to cut his sword.

They were indispensable during the fighting in the Carpathians. Also this episode describes the Order of Alexander Nevsky.
