DOI: 10.23951/2307-6127-2023-3-78-85
This article is aimed at implementing patriotic project of Tomsk State Pedagogical University “Victory Map”, the main idea of which is the idea of the common contribution of the front and rear to victory in Great Patriotic War. This article for the first time introduces into scientific circulation archival documents proving the contribution of one of the enterprises of the rear industry of Tomsk to victory over the enemy. On the example of the analysis of specially selected office documents, the transition of Tomsk confectionery factory “Red Star” to the military way of life is revealed, when the production of confectionery products for front and rear cedes its leading position to the production of food concentrates that are extremely necessary for front. This article analyzes the conditions of wartime (military mode of operation, lack of electricity, steam, fuel, water and raw materials) and their impact on changing the production structure of the factory, modernizing technological processes, reducing the range of sweet products associated with the search for sugar substitutes and other scarce raw materials. In article, quantitative information about the range of confectionery products (soft sweets, caramel, jam, gingerbread), the dynamics of its production from 1941 to 1945, multiplied by the selfless work of the team, confirms the real contribution of this factory to the overall victory. Within the framework of patriotic project “Victory Map”, this article is a relevant continuation of patriotic themes and can serve as practical material for patriotic project work with Tomsk students and schoolchildren.
