Valentina Shevchenko posted Victory Day congratulations on social media, accompanied by photographs of famous Soviet female combat pilots from World War II. The images featured Marina Raskova, Valeria Khomyakova, Lydia Litvyak, Ekaterina Budanova, and Valentina Grizodubova. This post appears to follow up on comments Shevchenko made approximately six weeks ago about these legendary aviators. The tribute highlights Shevchenko's continued recognition of Soviet military history and female heroes from the war era.
