During the Great Patriotic War in connection with the loss in 19411942. The Red Army of the vast territories has developed an acute shortage of food, a result of which was the half -starred existence of a significant mass of the population of the rear. For the urban population, the supply system was installed. The main attention is paid to the analysis of deficiencies in food supply, as well as crimes in this area. The access of individuals to a scarce product stacked the basis for various violations in the field of food supply, the main of which was speculation and illegal spending of cards. The analysis of available sources created by the city party committees of the Vladimir region shows that the effectiveness of counteracting violations in the food sector from law enforcement agencies was not effective. On this negative side of their work, they repeatedly paid attention to the meetings and plenums of the city committees of different cities of the region. Cases of food embezzlement were ambiguous in nature, and if fraud with coupons and theft of products by managers and warehouse workers were mainly to cash in on the troubles of fellow citizens, then the theft of products by minors and military were explained by their half -starved existence. The author came to the conclusion that a number of problems that took place in the field of food support were systemic and during the war it was not possible to get rid of them. Despite the formally strict legislation, there were a significant number of cases of criminal crimes in the entire length of the war regarding the plotting of food products.</p>food supplyresidents of the rearthe Great Patriotic Warspeculationsquanderingrationing systemпродовольственное снабжениежители население тылаВеликая Отечественная войнаспекуляцияразбазариваниекарточная система[Antoshkin, A.V.
