The term "Pin-Up Girls" derives from a trend that was clearly perceived in the 1940s and 1950s in the United States. It concerns posters hung by men from various social classes (most often by blue collar workers or soldiers, but not only!) With specifically dressed and make-up women with a clear erotic tinge. Let us add that although these posters were erotic, they were not treated as pornography, which was forbidden in the US at that time. These "Poster Women", that is the Pin-Up Girls, were always smiling, they wore either flared, loose polka dot or striped dresses, or very skimpy underwear, or bathing suits. They were often depicted wearing high waisted shorts. Of course, the Pin-Up Girls outfits were presented in such a way as to reveal as much of the models' bodies as possible. Let us add that also many official photos of Marilyn Monroe are kept in this style. The makeup used was also very clear with red lipstick underlined on the lips and strong black lines above the upper eyelids. It is worth adding that from the beginning of the 21st century there has been a noticeable renewed fashion for styling and makeup in the spirit of Pin-Up Girls.
The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (FR for short) were officially formed in May 1992 and are seen as the heir to the combat traditions and achievements of the Soviet armed forces. Currently, they are recognized as the second most powerful armed forces in the world, second only to US forces. One of their most important elements is the land component, i.e. the Land Forces of the Russian Federation, which in 2013 consisted of around 250,000 soldiers. Their most numerous component is still infantry - primarily motorized and mechanized. In 2013, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation consisted of 34 motorized rifle brigades. However, it is assumed that in 2016 they already had a motorized rifle division and - in addition - 35 motorized rifle brigades. It is worth adding that at the end of 2016, official information was provided about the formation of two new motorized divisions and two new motorized rifle brigades. At present, it is very difficult to give the exact number of brigades and divisions of the above-mentioned type. The composition of the modern Russian motorized brigade can be given on the example of the 9th Independent Motorized Rifle Brigade stationed in the city of Boguczar. In 2013, it had, among others, 41 tanks, 120 IFVs, 15 tracked armored personnel carriers and 18 multi-rocket launchers. It is worth adding, however, that the composition of individual motorized brigades could have changed significantly since 2013. It is worth adding that the current motorized and mechanized infantry units of the Russian Federation are largely based on vehicles structurally derived from the times of the USSR and they are most often IFVs from the BMP-2 and BMP-3 family, MT-LB tracked transporters or wheeled armored personnel carriers (KTO ) BTR-70 / BTR-80 / BTR-90. Of course, these cars are intensively modernized. It is worth noting that there are also completely new types of weapons introduced, such as the Kamaz Tajfun family of vehicles. However, the main shooting weapons remain the AK-74 and AK-74M.
