Valentina Shevchenko commemorated Victory Day by posting photographs of Soviet female pilots she had previously mentioned. The photos featured Marina Raskova, Valeria Khomyakova, Lydia Litvyak, Ekaterina Budanova, and Valentina Grizodubova. Shevchenko's post honored these pioneering women aviators who served during World War II. The gesture connects to statements Shevchenko made approximately six weeks earlier about these historical figures. Details about the context of her earlier comments or the significance of these specific pilots to Shevchenko personally are not provided in this brief post.
