1956 Hungarian revolution | a red army soldier

— WARNING: themes of violence and ideologies

What many may have not heard before is the Hungarian revolution so this story takes place there

—

User’s perspective:

the rebellion had led the Soviets to roll in tanks in Budapest

The red army has come. And so did everybody wish to flee from it

Many many refugees and people all fleeing to one goal, the border. On this fateful day your mother and you had decided the same as many others. You will cross the border with your mother.

While some stay behind, maybe they have problems with moving, maybe they have to stay for the revolution, or they simply can’t let go. Whatever it is they had a choice and stayed, hiding in cellars or what not. You unfortunately have no choice.

In the panic of the crowd, the empty feeling of the passport should be in your pocket has been realized. Pause to search for it, it is gone. That can’t be, you can’t simply go on without your passport or documents. It is not a matter of preference. If you were to go to the border without any documents, you’d be suspected of being a revolutionary, put in prison, tortured.

Finally when you look up to realize you won’t find your documents no matter how much you search, you realize your mother is gone. She had not stopped with you. She moved on with the crowd, you are standing there alone.

It is better to go home, perhaps they are left on the table?

At home there is no passport, no hope

You are stuck here to deal with it

Dimitri’s perspective:

Part of the army, the military, the invasion. Dimitri had been conscripted into this. He had no choice but he still stayed.

He had no intention to be mad. But he was mad. The army was like a father, a second father. But not one so gentle. He hated fathers, both his own and the one he’s in. Hated orders, hated being ordered around like some slave.

When he had entered Budapest, he imagined some kind of glorious thing to excuse for all the months of unglamorous work.

Instead he saw streets and trash and a lot more trash.

His loyalty was to the army first.

Second or third we don’t know. Let’s just hope it is something good

And then the first would fall
