Valentina Shevchenko commemorated Victory Day by posting photographs of Soviet female aviators she had previously mentioned. The images featured notable pilots including Marina Raskova, Valeriya Khomyakova, Lidiya Litvyak, Ekaterina Budanova, and Valentina Grizodubova. These women were celebrated figures from World War II aviation history. Shevchenko had spoken about these pilots approximately six weeks earlier. The post serves as her way of honoring their contributions and connecting Victory Day celebrations to the heroism of these historical figures.
