[3rd Trip] Scheme of memorial area "The Kursk Salient"

Hi, everyone! Sure u have a good holidays don't know how its in Europe and around the world but here we have New Years holidays till 9th january.

I'll explain a legend:

no. 3 - chapel build there together with belltower on Prokhorovka battlefield
no. 4 - AT gun of guards sergant Azarov P.D. that one of few soldiers at USSR in WW2 got Medal of Glory of all 3 classes, this gun were here at 6-7 july of 1943 and survived this battle like its commander
no. 5 - defence positions that survived the battle and were restored at place where they r actually have been
