After the call, my grandfather was sent to Maykop. From the words of my great-grandfather and his family, we know very little, because he did not like to talk about those terrible days, so we do not know much. But we know for sure that our great-grandfather is a real hero.We are proud of him and want to pass on his memory to posterity! I remember my great-grandfather, and I am painfully pleased to know that we had such a wonderful great-grandfather, that he managed to preserve human qualities in himself, even though his fate was harsh. He reached Berlin, was in Prague (awarded the medal for the liberation of Prague), in Warsaw and many other cities! It was a hard time, according to his grandmother(his daughter Dubrovina Tatiana Nikolaevna) had my grandfather, then, to put it mildly, not easy In those days, because he was the hungry one and everything was in short supply, in order to survive and satisfy the hunger, the soldiers even had to cook their own belts (they were out of pork skin). My great-grandfather was awarded many medals, and our grandmother keeps them. Most of the information I found only about one medal "for military merit" 31.08.1946 .Feat: "during his time in the battalion as a submachine gunner during the Patriotic war as an ordinary Rifleman and commander of the rifle Department, comrade Dubrovin proved to be a brave and disciplined Junior commander. In the battles for the expansion of the bridgehead on the West Bank of the Vistula river, during the breakthrough of the enemy's defenses in January 1945, for the capture of the cities of Dresden, Kielce, Strehlen, comrade Dubrovin repeatedly participated in attacks as part of a tank landing where he showed courage and bravery. As a commander of the rifle squad, he raised his soldiers in the spirit of loyalty to the Motherland and hatred of the enemy. During the period of peace after the war, comrade Dubrovin is also an example in the combat training of personnel. Personally disciplined, respected and respected among the staff" we remember our Nikolai Pavlovich and are very grateful to him for all that he has experienced and done for us, for our future! He devoted his entire life to his Homeland and family. We love it, remember it, and are good for it.
