Romanenkov Nikolay Titovich_x000D_ Nikolai Titovich was born in a poor peasant family in the village of Yushenko in the Mushkovichskiy village Council of the Yartsevsky district in April 1919. His father went to Siberia in search of earnings and worked as a carpenter in construction. Nikolai graduated from primary school and immediately began working to help adults. He runs the village cattle. In 1935, Romanenkov moved to his father in Irkutsk. After completing the course of gas welders, he works at a factory. In the evenings, he studies at the school of working youth. A good production worker and an active Komsomol member. Nikolay Romanenkov is elected as a trade Union worker of the shop. In 1938, he entered the evening technical school, but failed to graduate. Romanenkov was drafted into the Navy. When the Great Patriotic war began, he served in the far East. He was elected Komsomol of the division. Soon he was sent to study at the Moscow red banner military and political school named after V. I. Lenin. Since April 1944, N. T. Romanenkov has been fighting the invaders on the 1st Belorussian front. The rifle regiment, of which captain Romanenkov was a Komsomol member, was preparing to break through the enemy defenses North of Warsaw. Heavy fighting was coming. Along the entire front line, the Nazis built a powerful system of fortifications and concentrated a lot of their troops and equipment in this area. The Komsomol organization of the regiment was actively preparing for the offensive. At rallies and meetings, Komsomol members swore that they would be the first to attack. An example for them was the Komsomol Nikolai Romanenkov. The brave officer was seen in all units of the unit. He talked to young soldiers, taught them how to cross the river, eliminate resistance points, and repel enemy counterattacks. Romanenkov spent less than a year at the front, but constantly being in the most important areas, he managed to accumulate a wealth of combat experience. The Komsomol members trusted their leader and loved him. The offensive of the 1st Belorussian front began on January 14, 1945 with a powerful artillery strike on the enemy's fortifications. Under cover of gunfire, the forward battalion of the regiment moved across the Vistula. In the first chain of fighters was Nikolai Titovich. Under a hurricane of fire, on the thin ice broken by shells, our soldiers crossed the river. Surviving after artillery training machine-gun points of the Nazis forced the infantry to lie down with heavy fire. There was no shelter for the soldiers on the bare Bank, and the frozen ground did not yield to shovels. The battalion suffered heavy losses. It was necessary to rush forward to get out of the fire and destroy the enemy's firing points. The first to attack rose Komsomol Romanenkov. He took the soldiers with him and broke into the enemy trenches. In hand-to-hand combat, Hitler's machine-gunners were destroyed, and the infantry, without stopping, again went on the attack. Without allowing the enemy to recover, the battalion broke into the village of Dzekanovsk, turned by the enemy into a node of resistance, and immediately captured it. No sooner had the soldiers prepared for defense, as the enemy counterattacks began. Twelve self-propelled guns and several units of submachine gunners attacked the battalion, which had been thinned out in the battle. The first onslaught of the enemy was repulsed with great losses for him, but the Nazis continuously arrived reinforcements and immediately entered the battle. Several times machine gunners broke into our trenches, but the soldiers destroyed them. The battle raged all day. Sometimes critical moments were created, but each time, inspired by their Komsomol, the fighters threw the enemy back. The battalion obeyed the order. He held the bridgehead until the crossing of the main forces of the regiment. Breaking the resistance of the enemy, sweeping away the barriers of the invaders, the Soviet troops rapidly moved to the West. And again, captain Romanenkov in the advanced units of the regiment. During the offensive, the best of the young soldiers joined the Komsomol, and the best of the Komsomol members joined the Communist party. The Communists and Komsomol members were the first in the fighting. Only for fifteen days of fighting 126 Komsomol members of the regiment were presented to government awards, and three were awarded the highest title of Hero of the Soviet Union in our country. By decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on February 27, 1945, captain Nikolai Titovich Romanenkov was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union. Nikolai Romanenkov dreamed of studying to be an engineer. But this dream did not come true. Twelve days before the end of the war, on April 26, 1945, he died. A brave officer died a brave death on the battlefield. He is buried in the military cemetery in Poznan town. In the city of Svirsk, a street is named after Nikolai Titovich Romanenkov. In Irkutsk, there is a Museum of the Aviation plant keeps his tunic. There is also a monument there, and a memorial plaque on the factory building. A street in Irkutsk is named after him.

Rudnev Petr Petrovich_x000D_ _x000D_ My father, Petr Petrovich Rudnev, a red army soldier born in 1913, was drafted into the red Army in April 1942, in the 1091 rifle regiment of the 324th division in the 16th army. His military path was not long, but, like any soldier, not simple, hard, through blood and sweat on the battlefields. He was a participant in the battles of Moscow. The division in which my father served was on the defensive and covered one of the most important directions of Sukhinichi-Kaluga-Moscow. The fighting took place on the Northern Bank of the Zhizdra river. And in June 1942. he participated in the operation to capture the bridge over the Zhizdra. From July to October 1942. Petr Rudnev participated in the Rzhev - Sychevkaya strategic offensive operation. The red army soldiers of the rifle division in which he fought, slowly, with heavy losses, won back every meter of land. At the cost of their own lives, liberating villages and towns from the German invaders. In his last battle, during the offensive battles near the village of Kholm, Petr Petrovich Rudnev, on December 1, 1942, received a severe shrapnel wound in the left forearm, with damage to the radius. He was saved by the commander, unfortunately, we do not know his name. From my father's story......... there were fierce battles, and we had a great responsibility to hold out as long as possible and move West, not to let the enemy pass to Moscow. There was a battle, the Germans once again tried to break through the defense, shells were bursting all around, it was scary, smoke, fire, the roar of exploding shells, huge craters in the ground appeared one after another, some served as temporary shelter for us soldiers. Machine-gun bursts and machine-gun fire cut down our soldiers. Young girls-nurses ran screaming from this horror, fear and only fear, was read in their eyes. It was impossible to look at these very young children, tears and pain blurred my eyes when I saw it. I am a 29-year-old adult man, I could not see how these girls, who recently came down from school, fell, cut by bullets, and their braids lay on the dirty snow. We, adult men, trying to somehow save them, knocked them down and covered them with our bodies. In those moments, I realized more than ever that they do not belong here, they must live to give birth to a new life. It was a terrible reality... .... And then one of the shells exploded right ten paces away from me and the commander who was next to me. I didn't even have time to realize what was happening, as the commander literally knocked me down and covered me with his body, stunned by the exploding shell, I lost consciousness. When I woke up, after the explosion, at first, I didn't even realize what had happened. I struggled out from under the commander's body and saw that the shell fragments had torn the commander's entire back, while my left arm was broken and part of my back was grazed by shrapnel. At the cost of his own life, the commander shut me down, thereby saving my life. The arm was practically hanging by tendon and leftover skin. There was smoke, the sound of explosions, everything was pitted and snow covered with traces of the blood of dead soldiers lying everywhere. I crawled for a while, trying to see or hear at least one person, but soon I lost consciousness. I don't know how long I lay there, but when I woke up, I saw that I was already being carried on a stretcher, but I lost consciousness again. Once again, I woke up when I was already in the ambulance train, which was going through Moscow to Gorky. My arm was bandaged, and I had the feeling that it was practically gone. In my head, of course, the thought flashed through my mind, how will I live without a hand, my wife and 2-year-old son were waiting for me at home. It was painful to think that I might become disabled, but I tried not to let this thought occur. From the conversations of the soldiers, I realized that the Germans passed through the occupied positions of the Red Army, which was surrounded, and only by chance that they took me for a dead man, so they did not shoot me, but passed by and returned to their positions. Sometime after the battle, our medical units were able to carry out the remaining survivors, but there were only a few of them. Upon arrival in Gorky, all the wounded were placed in EV. hospital No. 2816. After examining my wound immediately, the doctor made a conclusion: - "Your business is bad, but let's try to save your hand, you have a whole life ahead of you." At the time, I didn't understand what it was about, but I firmly believed that everything would be fine. I remembered the piece of paper on which the prayer was written and which helped me in the most difficult days, on the battlefields, so I kept it in the pocket of my tunic. And from that moment, when I was particularly ill, I read this prayer, remembering my family. » In the hospital, I had a unique operation, when they were able to restore the motor function of the hand, with the transfer of the missing skin, using an incision on the side of the torso. The arm was practically sewn along the body. Unaware of anything, he writes the first letter to his wife, saying that he is in the hospital for treatment after being injured. And as it turned out, earlier she received a notification that Rudnev Petr Petrovich was missing in action. So far, on some sites from reports of irretrievable losses, he is listed among the dead in the Smolensk region. Sychevskiy district, D. Holm. TSAMO. Number of the information source Fund No. 58, inventory number No. 818883, case number No. 1809 Last duty station hq148osbr. Military transfer point Gorky runway. EG 2816. Arrived in part 15.07.1943. In July 1943, the Pope was sent to part number 170 of the Republic of Kazakhstan until December 1943, the Pope served in the protection of military warehouses.18.12.1943 g. the medical Commission of the Gorky GWRK was recognized as fit for non-combat service under article 44 of the first column of the order of N. K. O No. 336-1943. and was commissioned. At the end of 1943, my father returned home. My mother looked at him and was happy that he was home, even if not quite healthy, but alive. How many men were left out there on the battlefields, and he was here? When my mother was washing her tunic, she found in her pocket a folded piece of notebook, soaked in sweat and blood, worn out, but still holding the words of faith, on which was written a prayer. She handed it to my father, and he said," if it wasn't for this prayer, who knows what might have happened... " my mother understood everything, this leaf is still kept in our family as a family heirloom. Many years passed, and my father worked tirelessly in the fields and in the factory. In 1955, the decision of the medical Board, he was declared fit for military service. And in our family, during these post-war years, four more guys were born and the only girl-daughter, this is me. Every year on Victory day, on the day of the great Victory, my father wore a suit with orders and went to a meeting with veterans, laid flowers at the monument to the fallen during the war with tears in his eyes. And in 1985, he was awarded the order of the Patriotic war, First class. Unfortunately, dad did not like to talk about those terrible days of the war, could not watch films about the war without tears, and silently swallowing tears, clenching his fists, said: "There is nothing worse than a war that takes away your most precious thing-your life." And only my insistent desire to hear something more from my father about the war, forced him again and again to return to those terrible days of the war. And he said that we, adult male soldiers, wept when we saw how German planes bombed and shot trains (trains) with civilians, in which mostly old people and women with children were traveling. His eyes were filled with tears at that moment, and the pain and bitterness of what he had seen still lingered in his heart. .... "I close my eyes and see," he said, " a woman, very young, clutching a baby to her breast, drops of blood trickling from her lips, and the baby is almost covered with earth from a shell that exploded nearby. The screams of people running in different directions, crying, a terrible picture was before his eyes. I wanted to run, to protect, to hide, but I had to go further, forward to the West. And we went without sparing ourselves, for those who remained on the battlefields, for those who were waiting for us at home, the closest, the dearest ... " he could not forget the woman holding the baby to her breast. He could not forget the old people, or the open eyes of dead children, nor could he forget the smell of death, even decades later, after this terrible war. That's probably why he loved life so much, worked and lived for his family, for 6 children. Only a fragment the size of a five-kopeck coin, left after the wound under his left shoulder blade, only occasionally reminded of those days. Farther worked until the age of 18, was awarded the title "Veteran of Labor", was repeatedly awarded diplomas and commendations for good work. He was always proud of his 5 sons, who one by one went to serve in the Soviet Army, in different parts of our vast country from the Far East to the Baltic States. We had a large, friendly and strong family. I am proud that I had such a hero father! Unfortunately, my dad is no longer with us, he died on 05.03.1988, but there is his continuation, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. We have a large family, 15 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren. So, one saved life, the Life of my father Rudnev Petr Petrovich, became a continuation of 39 more lives. Life goes on, in us his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. We remember, we are proud!

Participant of the Soviet-Finnish war. The Great Patriotic War finds him in the Western Ukraine in the city of Drohobych. Heavy days of retreat to Moscow, and then the offensive battles of the Volkhov front to Western Ukraine took a lot of strength and health. But not the belief in Victory! "Win! » - this call lived in the soul and supported. Next, the Second Ukrainian front is fighting for Dresden (Germany). Here Idris Saitovich heard the word “Victory”! After the end of the war, he continues to serve in the Voronezh military district. According to him, the most violent were the Bandera, which had to fight after the war. After returning home in 1947, he continued to work on the collective farm. It was difficult for him to talk in detail about the hard-hungry life, about military everyday life in dugouts, basements, trenches, about breakthroughs of encirclements. It was hard for his wounded soul to remember how they were stuck in the swamp for three days and how they spent five days on the roof of a shed occupied by the Nazis, with only a flask of water. It was creepy when Idris Saitovich talked about human suffering. He had seen a lot of them. Therefore, Victory Day is a very important and great holiday for all of us.

Rymarova Zoya Semenovna_x000D_ _x000D_ Zoya Semenovna Rimeova,( nee Dmitrieva) was born on June 17, 1929 in Krasnogorodsky district, Maizelovo village, Pskov region, Russian. When the war began, she was at school, she was 12 years old. In 1943, when she was 14 years old, she was already part of the intelligence Agency at the place of residence, went to the location of German garrisons, where she changed eggs, butter from German soldiers, for soap and matches. Its purpose was, if possible, to determine the number and armament of the German garrison, etc. The information obtained was transmitted to the agent scout, who directly reported it to the brigade. So, she helped the partisans. In August 1943, she went to the 10th Kalinin partisan brigade, because it began to attract attention from the police. The intelligence commander was her father, Semen Dmitriev. In the brigade, my grandmother went to investigate, but not alone, but in a group of 2-3 people. They accompanied her through forests, swamps, to a certain destination, where they remained to wait for her return. As a girl, it was easier for her to approach the necessary objects, since no one paid special attention to the child. So, she learned the approaches to railway stations, bridges, their security, etc. Sometimes I went to certain people, scouts, in order to get information from them that they had. In order not to arouse suspicion, she pretended to go to the dressmaker or to the shoemaker, while carrying a larger dress or old boots. In difficult situations, sometimes I had to leave under a hail of bullets. She was in the partisan brigade for 10 months. Then, due to the approach of the front line and the expectation of fierce fighting, by order of the headquarters of the partisan movement, all minors from the partisans were sent to the Soviet rear. So, they, children and teenagers, were transported by plane to the rear, in the city of Kalinin. _x000D_ Awarded: Order of the Patriotic War II art. № 3622872; medal to the Partisan of the Patriotic War; medal for the Victory over Germany; badge "Front-Line soldier 1941-1945", and many more commemorative medals.

Rysin Grigory Nikolaevich_x000D_ _x000D_ In 1934- he together with his father Nikolai Filippovich Rysin came to Arkhangelsk to build a sawmill № 16-17; 1939-1940-a participant in the Winter war. (Soviet-Finnish war); 1940-worked at the Solombalskiy l / s 16-17 in the transport shop as a mechanic.

In the Village the first five (Arkhangelsk) is a memorial of memory of victims in world war II went to the front with a higher l/s 16-17. The name is engraved on the memory Board. Family: wife Rysina Vera Mikhailovna 1914. R. Son Arkady 1938. R. Son Rudolf 1941. R. BATTLE PATH 12.08.1941 18-th echelons departed from Arkhangelsk to the Kestenga area on the Sorokskaya-Obozerskaya railway line under construction. The transfer of the division is notable for the fact that this branch has not yet been put into operation, only the rolling stock of railway workers moved along it to the echelons of the division. Arrived at Loukhi station 12.08.1941 and immediately entered the battle West of the station: we can say that the arrival of this division saved from the capture of the station and, accordingly, from the blockade of the Kirov railway in this section. The 147th separate reconnaissance battalion went straight from the wheels to the front line and stopped the enemy's advance. 13.08.1941 deployed battalions of the 426th rifle regiment, 14.08. 1941 the division headquarters arrived, and on 15.08.1941 the division commander was killed in an air RAID. The division pushed the enemy forces back, and eventually stabilized the front line 40 kilometers West of Loukhi by November 1941. On the night of 31.10.1941 to 01.11.1941, after three hours of artillery preparation, German and Finnish units launched an offensive, hitting the junction of the 426th and 611th regiments, but all attacks were repulsed. In early November 1941 the German command launched an offensive operation in the direction of Kesteng on the Northern Bank of Top Lake (Karelo-Finnish ASSR), Loukhi station (South-West of Kandalaksha), aiming to cut the Murmansk — Leningrad railway. The offensive was of operational importance, since by capturing the Loukhi station, the enemy would have deprived our country of railway communication with Murmansk via Kandalaksha and Arkhangelsk. This could have created great difficulties in providing our troops and the Northern Fleet with everything they needed, and in communicating the Soviet Union with the outside world through the North. Great importance was attached to the enemy surprise. This is evidenced by the fact that the units intended for the offensive in the Kestenga area were concentrated only a few days before the offensive began. By 05.11.1941, the enemy had managed to encircle the 426th rifle regiment with superior forces, cutting off the supply routes for ammunition and food. The regiment fought in the encirclement until 09.11.1941, and left the encirclement, losing almost all the materiel. Also, the division headquarters was surrounded. By the end of November 1941, the division had no more than 3,000 men left in the ranks of 17,000 personnel. The bloodless division was taken out for re-formation.

Rakityanskiy Nikolay Fedorovich_x000D_ _x000D_ Rank: Corporal_x000D_ Branch of the troops: Artillery _x000D_ Division: 358th rifle Leningrad-Khinganskaya Red Banner order of Suvorov division according to the memories of my father Rakityanskiy Nikolai Fedorovich, he also could not wait to go to the front, to fight the enemy. He was only 16 years old when, after the battle of Kursk, he came to the military enlistment office as a volunteer. This is how he remembered it: "Before I got to the front, when the Germans were in our area, we had to work with them to break the ice on the river, to carry huge blocks of ice on a cart. The work was hard, my hands, neck, face were stiff, and my whole body ached. It was easy to get pneumonia and die. And, most importantly, I was angry that I had to work for the Germans. I ran away from this to the front. Before I went to war, I was determined, like other boys, and I dreamed of romance. Later, when I experienced the cold, the fear and the danger, the roar and the howl, I felt a growing desire in me that this grinding, roaring and howling, death and stench, would soon stop once and for all. I returned home with the joy of the fact that, although I was seriously wounded-in the chest through, but did not die! » It was mentioned above that the troops of the 1st Ukrainian front joined the troops of the Belarusian front. The roads of my grandfather Stepa and father Kolya converged. Naturally, they could hardly meet, although they served side by side and did one thing in common. My father served on the 3rd Belorussian and Baltic fronts as a corporal, first as a sniper, then as a submachine gunner, and later as a scout in the commander's personal guard. He remembered that: "Was it scary in the trenches? Of course, even as! Especially when "Katyusha" entered the battle. You sit in the dark, the darkness is impenetrable, where your own, where others-it is not clear, and suddenly over your head with a howl sweep missiles "Katyusha". It feels like every shell is flying right at you. And you know it's high above you, but it's still scary, you can't move your legs or your arms. But you need to get out of the trench and run forward while the artillery preparation lasts." Dad was shot twice. The first shard broke through his Shoe and sank into the foot of his right foot. An orderly helped him cut the Shoe and the splinter off and bandaged his leg. After this slight injury, after lying in the hospital for several months, the Pope was back in the ranks. The second time, he was hit much more seriously: in the chest through and through. With this chest wound, my father lay in a hospital bed until the end of the war. The Pope complained that "I did not have time to perform any feat, and I did not kill a single German, but I smelled gunpowder, as they say, and got injured." But the Motherland marked the participation of young men like my father in the war differently. Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of may 9, 1947 my father, Rakityanskiy Nikolay Fedorovich, was awarded the medal "For Victory over Germany in the great Patriotic War 1941 - 1945" In 1985 decree of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR in commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the Victory of Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. he was also awarded the Order of Patriotic War II degree. My father was an exceptionally intelligent, educated man. He could play the balalaika and recited poems and fables perfectly. I loved A. Twardowski very much, I knew his " Vassili Tyorkin” by heart. My father was a Jack-of-all-trades and an exceptionally humble man.
