<p>Greetings, Comrades! As we promised to Bob, here's our episode on the postal service of the USSR. This was a huge subject and we had to cut some stuff out as this was already a long episode - but it's chock full of interesting facts and stories, like a care package sent to some poor conscript in Vorkut or Khabarovsk. This episode made me realize that logistics are a nightmare and that folks who care about our mail are unsung heroes. And hey - if some of them will listen to this ep, while doing their delivieries, it'll make me a tad bit happier. This one's dedicated to you, postal workers! Enjoy!</p><br><p>Oh, and please, consider becoming our patron at patreon.com/theeasternborder or donating via the link on our homepage, theeasternborder.lv</p><br><p>Happiness is Mandatory!</p><p>Support this show <a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder">http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder</a>.</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
