In October 1940, from my second year, I was drafted into the ranks of the Red Army. He served in the 532th rifle regiment, studied at the regimental school, which trains junior commanders. The regiment was stationed in the city of Cherepovets, Vologda Oblast. In the summer of 1941, the regiment was in a camp near the Kushchuba half-station. There, the commander of the Arkhangelsk Military District, Lieutenant General V.Ya. Kachalov. accepted the parade and inspected the troops. On June 22, 1941, fascist Germany treacherously attacked our homeland. Our 111th Infantry Division was loaded into echelons and sent to the West. Enemy aviation then dominated the air, our echelon was heavily bombed. We reached the town of Maloyaroslavets, stood there for a day, then the train turned back. We arrived in the city of Vologda. We, the cadets of the regimental and divisional school, were left, and the division was sent to the Smolensk direction. A new division was formed from the mobilized. We became junior commanders (I am junior sergeant). Our division was sent to the North. For about a month and a half we studied there and trained the mobilized. In September, one battalion was taken away and loaded onto a steamer. We arrived in the city of Belomorsk, our battalion guarded the headquarters of the Karelian Front. The Karel Front is an operational formation of the Red Army of the Armed Forces of the USSR during the Great Patriotic War. It existed from August 1941 to November 1944. In August - September 1941, the front's troops stopped the enemy, who was making attempts to seize the Arctic, and forced him to go on the defensive. From September 1941 to June 1944, the troops of the front held defense along the line: the Zapadnaya Litsa river (60 kilometers from Murmansk), Ukhta, Povenets, Lake Onega, the Svir river. Private operations were carried out periodically (Medvezhyegorskaya offensive operation). For more details see Defense of the Arctic. In the second half of 1944 (July - August), the front forces, with the support of the Ladoga and Onega military flotillas, carried out the Svir-Petrozavodsk operation, in September - the pursuit of the enemy in the Kandalaksha and Kesteng directions, in October, with the support of the Northern Fleet - the Petsamo-Kirkenes operation. As a result, the state border with Finland and Norway was restored in the northwest of the USSR. On November 15, 1944, after Finland's withdrawal from World War II, the front was disbanded. He was in the protection of the front headquarters for more than two years. We repeatedly asked to go to the front line, but we were told: "This is also a front, and besides, the headquarters." Not only me, all my comrades haunted the command, and, in the end, got their way. We were sent to the regiment, where the mobilized are trained, and the trained are sent to the front line to replenish units. For more than a year he trained the mobilized. Many Tatars, Kyrgyz, Uzbeks, Tajiks, Kazakhs, natives of the Central Asian republics got into our regiment. They did not know Russian well, and some did not know at all. Some of the mobilized did not distinguish between words: right, left. At the command, they turned in the opposite direction, and some stood, not knowing what to do. My pedagogical training came in handy here. The language of the Central Asian peoples is similar. I explained to them in my native language the meaning of the words to the right, which means it is necessary to turn to the right side (hand), etc. The command praised me for the fact that I brought the most stupid to the good soldiers. One Kyrgyz wanted to understand nothing. I told him about Manas Batyr, the legendary hero of the Kirghiz. I asked him if you really have a single drop of national pride. You are considered to be feeble-minded here and, at the same time, the entire Kyrgyz people are stupid Asians. In February 1944, he was admitted to the CPSU (b) by the Political Administration of the active 22nd Army. Participated in offensive battles in the area of the newly fortified, improved Mannerheim lines with long-term firing points, impassable swamps.

The battalion was in the city until 07/08/1944, after which it withdrew from its positions and was again sent to the front line. Our separate 31st Petrozavodsk Red Banner Marine Corps Battalion was sent to rescue a separate naval brigade, which was surrounded. In that battle, I was wounded in the left forearm. In addition, the enemy opened heavy mortar fire from large-caliber machine guns. Later I learned that the company commander, Comrade Chistyakov, had been killed in this mortar attack.
