The sculptural depiction of a Red Army hat with earflaps engages the viewer in a story about military operations on the territory of the USSR during World War II. The unstable position of this hat, fallen in the thawing March snow and carried away by the wind in an unknown direction, symbolizes the every-second change in the course of fighting at the fronts and the fragile position of victory, which is still far from complete.
