Kamenskikh (Kostyuchina) Olga Vasilyevna was born in the village of Elizavetovka, of the Lozova district, Kharkiv region. When German troops occupied the village of Yelizovetovka, among other children and teenagers, she was taken to work in Germany at the age of 17. She was in captivity in a camp in the village of Plausnsin Kolberg. There they worked hard in the fields. They lived in cold barracks, had no warm clothes, made their own skirts out of old torn bags, and knitted their own socks with twine or strings that tied the bags. Instead of shoes, they were given wooden shoes or pads on their feet, and they were fed very sparsely. She was in the camp from May 01, 1943 (from the information: reference of the Central Archive of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation No. 133551 case 12 sheet 12) and was released in March 1945 by the Red Army. The released young men were called to serve in the Red Army, and the girls, including Olga Vasilyevna, became a volunteer nurse on the military ambulance train 1029. She worked as a freelance nurse in 1029 VSP from 20.03.1945 to 06.07.1945. According to trip logs, train 1029 from 20.03.1945 to 09.05.1945 was within the rear borders of the acting general army fronts for 12 days, and during this period was part of the acting army (base: CAMO, op. A-8332 d.523 LD 043-70.p.2). Though officially Victory Day is considered to be May 09, the battles in Transcarpathia continued for a long time, the wounded Red Army soldiers were taken out all summer. At that time they not only had to be nurses, but also to stand guard, guarding the echelon. After the war, she returned to her native village, started working at a dairy farm, and got married in 1948.
