Заслуженный артист без публики

Да, спасибо, камрад urban_psychosys напомнил.
11 ноября не просто 11.11 (в этом году ещё и 11), а день независимости Родезии.
А камрад i_am_girg подкинул подобающую случаю песенку.



Here's the story of Rhodesia, a land both fair and great,
On 11th of November an independent state,
This was much against the wishes of certain governments,
Whose leaders tried to break us down and make us all repent,

But we're all Rhodesians and we'll fight through thick and thin,
We'll keep our land a free land, stop the enemy coming in.
We'll keep them north of the Zambezi till that river's running dry,
And this mighty land will prosper for Rhodesians never die,

They can send their men to murder and they can shout their words of hate,
But the cost of keeping this land free will never be too great,
For our men and boys are fighting for the things that they hold dear,
And this land and all its people will never disappear,

Because we're all Rhodesians and we'll fight through thick and thin,
We'll keep our land a free land, stop the enemy coming in,
We'll keep them north of the Zambezi till that river's running dry,
This mighty land will prosper for Rhodesians never die,

We'll preserve this little nation, for our children's children too,
For once you're a Rhodesian, no other land will do,
We will stand tall in the sunshine, with the truth upon our side.
And if we have to go alone, we'll go alone with pride,

Because we're all Rhodesians and we'll fight through thick and thin,
We'll keep our land a free land, stop the enemy coming in,
We'll keep them north of the Zambezi till that river's running dry,
This mighty land will prosper for Rhodesians never die.

Кстати, родезийские вооружённые силы скреативили совершенно убойную вещь - Leopard Security Vehicle на базе, на минуточку, Фольцвагена-Жука. Сам факт создания боевого шушпанцера на такой базе, а также внешний вид оного какбэ говорят нам о том, что Родезия была правильной страной, населённой правильными людьми.



Пойду поздравлю tiomkin.
