Vergeleken Elena Vladimirovna_x000D_ _x000D_ Rank: Lieutenant of the medical service. Paramedic of the regimental medical center. Branch of service: army, air force (except marine aviation), the coast guard, the troops of the NKVD border troops. Division: 250th rifle Bobruisk red banner order of Suvorov division. 790 red banner order of Alexander Nevsky artillery regiment. After the liberation of the Kalinin region, our 250 SD was transferred to the North-Western front near Vatolino. The so-called local battles were fought here. The battles for Vatolino were inconclusive. There were heavy losses in manpower. At that time, the artillery regiment was not very good with shells, and tanks often remained on the battlefield, as the terrain there is swampy and tanks got stuck there. At that time, I was a senior medical officer. I do not undertake to characterize myself and other doctors, but after every soldier killed, every tank that failed, there were tears in our eyes. Above us, the German "Rama" - a scout that recorded every movement of units-flew endlessly. The plane spotted them, and then immediately began a mortar attack. So, in June, the commander of the 916 SP battalion Zharmukhanov came under mortar fire, a shell tore off his head. Regimental intelligence went to the rear of the enemy for the "language". But it was not easy to do this: the barbed wire in front of the German trenches, you hit it and hung on it empty cans made a deafening noise. They often had to return empty-handed, for which the division commander called them "empty-handed" out of spite. One day, the intelligence service, returning from a mission, ran into a minefield. As I bandaged the wounded, I heard a groan nearby. It was getting light, but I managed to crawl up to the wounded man. The blast had thrown him to the side, and he was fainting from the loss of blood, his severed arm hanging by a tiny piece of muscle. I had to cut off the dangling arm with scissors. After putting on a bandage, I helped him crawl back to his trenches, and then sent all the wounded in a gig to the medical unit. In doing our job of helping the wounded, we often forgot about the dangers that threatened us. Once, during a lull, tired, I sat down on a stump in a copse and did not hear major Nikitin N. N. approach me. "Well, soldier, did you hear that?" he asked, and suddenly bent my head low with his hands. At that moment, a shell exploded nearby, and one of the fragments screeched over my head. If the Commissar hadn't bent my head in time, I would have been lying on that field! It was hard to see and experience the death of the Commissar of the regiment shachnev Pyotr Andreevich in the battle for d. Monakovo in August 1942. In the battles for the liberation of Belarus, I was shell-shocked. Once in Moscow, a man came up to me at the train station, named our unit, and asked: "Are You Lena? "Yes," I said. He called himself a Buffoon, kissed my hand, and said: "You saved me, I remember You." It was a pleasant meeting, and I also want to say to everyone who remembers us, doctors, and our humble friends: "Be healthy! Thank you, dear!"

He was born in the TRANS-Urals in 1893, in the village of Polovinnoye, Polovinsky district, Kurgan region, in the family of a well-to-do peasant. This village, incidentally, is the birthplace of the TRANS Gatchina who had moved there from Arkhangelsk...Namesakes there-exactly half, if not more. He was called up for war in 1914. He was captured, returned, was dispossessed after the revolution, worked as a blacksmith. On March 27, 1938, he was arrested. Tried by the Troika of the NKVD in the Chelyabinsk region on November 5, 1938, on charges of counter-revolutionary activities, as a German spy... Article execution: article 58 points 2, 9, 11. Sentenced: to 3 years of imprisonment with confiscation of property in favor of the state. Released before the war. In 1942, he was mobilized to the front. Being an age-old grandfather who passed the PMV, German captivity and camps, he enjoyed authority among young fighters, although he served as a private...He told how he fed his colleagues a fallen horse when there were food shortages on the front line - they could not overcome their disgust for carrion... But war is war... Yes, when Timofey Vakhtin was fighting at the front, his wife-Olimpiada - was also in the camp, on charges that she dug up a bucket of potatoes in her garden in order to feed my grandfather (the law on three spikelets). So, a German translator was killed at the front... The commander was informed that Vakhtin had once questioned a captured Fritz...so Timofey Vakhtin also became a translator, participating in interrogations of prisoners and languages. In gratitude for this, the commander of the unit petitioned for the release of his wife from the camp... Of the military awards, my great-great-grandfather had only one: the medal "for bravery" from 27.02.1945, received for personal courage in the battles for the city of Budapest. The feat consisted in the fact that being a loader of a mortar under enemy fire destroyed two enemy machine guns... I think that there were more exploits, but the reputation of the anti-Soviet, I think, played a role in the fact that the medal was one... The wife from the camp, thanks to the request of the commander, was released early and even given a house from the collective farm (not the one that was taken, of course, but still)... My grandfather was rehabilitated on August 17, 1989 by the Uralvo military Prosecutor's office. His son, Anton Timofeyevich, also fought, was wounded, and died early.

Vereshchagin Ivan Mikhailovich_x000D_ _x000D_ Military branch: Artillery Occupied Odessa on the eve of liberation. A group of boys aged 14-15 are looking forward to the arrival of our units. And here is the long-awaited day: Soviet troops under the roar of guns enter Odessa... Vanya Vereshchagin did not remember his mother, his father was killed in the fighting near Kharkiv, and his younger brother was raised by his father's sister. And he decides to go to the front. Requests to enlist him as a volunteer in the army are refused everywhere. But he does not deviate from his intention, his hatred for the fascists and love for the Motherland are too great, and, finally, he achieves enrollment in a separate machine-gun and artillery battalion. On June 6, 1944, Ivan Vereshchagin received his first baptism of fire in Moldavia near Iasi. So began his military biography. He serves as a signalman. The unit in which Ivan Mikhailovich Vereshchagin served (106 SK 500 opab 159 UR 4 Ukrf), fought in Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland and Germany. One point: in the front-line documents, he was born in 1930. In the post-war passport, the date of birth was 1929. I remember him saying that he added his age after the war in order to reach adulthood faster, but it is impossible to say exactly where this age difference came from now. "Having been demobilized in 1952, senior reserve Sergeant Ivan Vereshchagin goes on a Komsomol ticket to restore the mines of Donbass destroyed by the Nazis. The country needed coal. Everyone worked regardless of time, and here Ivan needed front-line training. And in 1959 - again on the road. Ivan Mikhailovich goes to the construction of a large chemical plant in Krasnoyarsk, then to the Orenburg region, where he works for three years on the construction of a Nickel-cobalt plant as a crawler crane driver. The end of 1969. The cry rang out across the country: "All - for the construction of KAMAZ, the greatest construction of the ninth five-year plan!" In December, Ivan Mikhailovich was going on vacation, and the Builder's heart pulled him to Naberezhnye Chelny to see what KAMAZ Is. I came, looked, and stayed in Chelny. I didn't want to be on the sidelines of such a great cause. At first, he worked in Spetsstroy, and since mid-1970 In the Department of construction mechanization as a crane driver DEK-25. A high sense of duty and responsibility for the assigned task, great effort and experience distinguished Ivan Mikhailovich in his work. At the Engine plant, he drilled the first wells for drilling piles. At the car Assembly plant, he worked until the complete delivery of the case. For his good work, he was awarded the title of "Drummer of Communist labor" and "Drummer of the ninth five-year plan". He received dozens of certificates and commendations for conscientious work."
