The issue is dedicated to little-known pages of the history of the Polotsk fortified area, which was part of the grandiose defensive line on the western borders of the Soviet Union, known as the Stalin Line. Based on archival data, eyewitness accounts and participants in the events near Polotsk, the authors show how for 20 days in June - July 1941, the defenders of Polotsk restrained the advance of several German divisions deep into Soviet territory. When the situation became threatening, by order of the command, a night breakthrough, destroying one of the motorized rifle battalions of the fighter, they left the encirclement. For the first time, the memoirs of her daughter about the brigade commander A.I. Zygin, one of the leaders of the defense of Polotsk in 1941, are published.
