Abstract

Making affect the living conditions of as ordinary underground, and higher commanders. That problem was not left in to find a place in secret places dig it, find the pick, but deliver and maintain these products. The need for regulated products generally instructive guidance (quantity, composition, etc.). Although all the procurement took into account the real possibilities of the region.

For full proharchuvannya developed specific recommendations on the necessary components of food, their calorie content, and the needs and options for the replacement of individual components (with the same calorie content). It should be noted that the management suited to differentiated food nutrition standards depending on the tasks (wintering in kryyivtsi stay in roads, etc.). A clear indication in the distribution of food stocks are also associated with their small reserves, and therefore need a longer use.

Of course we have to mention that diet and to some extent dependent on the locations of rebel department or location of the hiding places (built in the farms kept local residents have allowed varied diet). COOKING UPA engaged individuals who have the appropriate skills and in secret places during the winter it could carry out a woman (if any) inhabitants refuge, alternately or together with a clear division of responsibilities.

Figuring features material living conditions, moral and psychological circumstances of the Carpathians underground environment enables study descriptions of memories and diaries. That is often the nationalists had to starve days and weeks. Another drawback was the lack of domestic opportunities to kindle a fire in the open, because it could see the enemy. It was felt particularly sharply in early spring, when insurgents hiding places and left feeling cold.

It should be noted that life in kryyivtsi had strict regulations: Time for morning hygiene, snida¬nok, classes (history of Ukraine, ideological propaganda classes, items of general cycle general education), if the radio listening to just the latest news. Given 2-3 hours for private lessons (reading books, personal interests, etc.). Cooking and cleaning all rebels involved, an exception could be the conductor. If kryyivtsi was a woman, then set Screen covers. Violation of vstanov¬lenoho regulations were imposed: an extraordinary status, study some works. Among the entertainment used the game with chess, checkers, in some cases – playing musical instruments. Certain difficulties and opportunities related to daily observe personal hygiene. Of course in the summer the situation was favorable – used for this purpose reservoirs that were nearby, had complicated the fall, winter and spring. At this time, these needs could make in homes of local people. In establishing relationships, life in a closed and confined space women had difficult with male staff.

Nationalists, making a daily struggle, despite the constant voltage did not forget about training, self-education, leisure, celebrations and more. In difficult conditions of daily struggle played an important moment of celebration moral-psychological, educational value. In the underground, along with propaganda, military activities and everyday work, do not forget about the celebration of various holidays. With materials stored hear about the celebrations that took place in the underground. In particular, we highlight the religious and nationalist public holidays. Celebrating each holiday carefully prepared, develop manuals and guidelines. It was during the celebration of religious holidays and underground rebels had the opportunity to taste festive food. However, a complete meal (for all ritual canons) could have been in the cantonment nationalists in villages among family, friends and sympathizers.

Thus, despite the difficulties of everyday life, the events of war and post-war confrontation has put forward to the historic arena strong, sacrificial personalities that in war people were not lost moral and Christian values. Setting the usual everyday improvements in the underground depended on a number of circumstances. Even in the actual conditions of war nationalists denied by a short holiday and festive moments. With the aim of significant events underground photographed.
