Polyanskaya Polina Andreevna

Full name: Polyanskaya Polina Andreevna SURNAME: Polyanskaya FIRST name: Polina PATRONYMIC: Andreyevna CITY: s. Syarda Penza region DATE of BIRTH: 28.08.1922 DATE of DEATH: 19.04.2015 HISTORY: This is my mother. WWII veteran. Labor veteran. Here are her memoirs, written by her personally on 26.02.2015 at the request of colleagues for the 70th anniversary of the Victory (two months before her departure). Hard road to Victory. I was 18 when the war started. I worked at the Saratov aviation plant as a controller of the technical control Department. The factory produced the legendary yak1 and YAK3 fighters. My mother and my sister also worked at the factory. The fascists were rushing to the Volga. The red Army held the front, but Saratov became a front-line city. These are hard times. Famine and night bombing were constant companions of those years. The front needed more and more planes. The plant worked around the clock. During the most difficult time for the country, the work shift lasted 24 hours. People didn't leave the factory for days. For violation of labor discipline, a military Tribunal was threatened. The Nazis bombed the factory every night with German pedantry. It was forbidden to leave the workplace, the plant had to work under any conditions. During air raids, all Windows and doors of workshops were closed, and blackout was introduced. The atmosphere in the closed shop was suffocating because of gas welding, technical oils, kerosene vapors, gasoline, solvents, sandblasts. Mothers wept as they worked at their looms, worried about the children left at home. But no one left their jobs. Bombs repeatedly fell in the running of the shop, killing and maiming people, destroying equipment. In the morning, after such bombings, the dead were taken out by trucks. It was a very painful sight. My job was to control the frame of the plane. This was a responsible operation, on which the reliability of the aircraft depended to a large extent. The frame consisted of numerous metal tubes welded together. No defects were allowed: dents, chips, scratches, deformations, etc. Welding should be ideal. I went through everything carefully, probing with my fingers, checking the diagrams. If there was no marriage, I put my brand on the frame, got a technical passport for the plane. In the case of marriage, the disadvantages were eliminated. During my work at the factory, not a single comment was made in my address. During the long night shifts, I couldn't help feeling sleepy. But I and in thoughts was not allowed to leave the workplace. The constant companion of those years was hunger. On non-working days, my mother and I went at night on freight trains across the Volga to Moscow. Engels worked part-time at a meat processing plant. A single set of workers was made at five o'clock in the morning. They worked in the slaughterhouse up to their ankles in blood. We were paid for our work with low-grade meat trimmings – raw stomachs of cattle. And for us it was a great joy and salvation. The Nazis purposefully bombed strategic objects of the city. The railway bridge over the Volga, which was connected to the left Bank of the Volga and the East of the country, and which we used to travel to Engels. But the Germans did not manage to get into it. Until the end of the war, the bridge served the cause of victory, with trains carrying weapons, people,and food. The Nazis managed to bomb the Kretinga oil refinery. Its oil storage facilities continued to burn for several years after the war. In these difficult conditions, I continued to study at night school. My dear husband Polyansky Vasily Andreevich-senior investigator for particularly important cases of the regional Prosecutor's office-survived the war as a teenager. In the absence of the male population, all the difficulties of rear life fell on his shoulders. The hard time of the war undermined his health. Later, he passed away early, and I raised two children alone. There was no family that was not affected by the war. In a fierce battle on the Kursk-Oryol arc, my sister's husband Stepan Kichatov died heroically. He was a political officer, a wonderful kind person, the soul of the team. Repeatedly wounded, shell-shocked, commissioned, he again and again voluntarily went to the front, until he died in battle. The place of his burial is still unknown. My sister was left with two young sons, whom she raised alone. Due to malnutrition and avitominosis, her youngest son could not stand up for a long time, and his cheeks were covered with a thick crust of diathesis. There were no medications. Folk wisdom helped: they steamed onions in a cast-iron stove in a Russian oven, lowered the child's legs into a warm mass and smeared their cheeks with it. Our relative, a resident of the village of Nechayevka in the Penza region, Vladimir Gerasimov, was awarded the order of Glory of all three degrees for his courage and heroism on the war fronts, which is equivalent to the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. His name is immortalized on the stele of Heroes on the embankment of the Sura river in Penza. In November 1944, when the war was coming to an end, the country began to prepare for a peaceful life. The Komsomol Committee of the factory and the party bodies sent me to study at the Saratov law school. After finishing school, I was sent to the Prosecutor's office of the Penza region. At the same time, she entered the Saratov law Institute. This is how my life in law began. I worked as a Prosecutor in the Penza region Prosecutor's office for 33 years before retiring in 1978. He was a senior assistant Prosecutor, chief of civil litigation Deputy city attorney. Since 1952, a member of the CPSU. Have 10 government awards: medal "For valiant labor in the great Patriotic war", medal "Veteran of labor", medal "For valiant labor in honor of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Lenin", Medal Rudenko, in honor of the 70th anniversary Newbergso process, the medal "290 years of the Russian Prosecutor's office", 4 commemorative medals in honor of Victory in great Patriotic war, medal "50 years Soviet prosecution". I have two children, a grandson and a great-granddaughter. In the cruel ordeal of the war, our people showed the highest morale, great dedication, willpower, and humanism. The key to this was the great unity of the entire people in the face of danger. No amount of hardships broke us. We believed in victory and won!

Popov Sergey Andreevich

Full name: Popov Sergey Andreevich last NAME: Popov FIRST name: Sergey PATRONYMIC: Andreevich CITY: Lipetsk region, Stanovlyansky district, village of Trostnoye date of BIRTH: 14.11.1913 DATE of DEATH: 19.12.2008 _x000D_ _x000D_ HISTORY: Sergey Popov carefully keeps photos of the war years, recorded his memories of the hard times. Here are some of them. "In September of the 35th, the Bauman district military Commissariat called me to serve in the black sea fleet. As part of the border detachment of the NKVD (in Sevastopol), he kept watch on a boat, was a radio operator. At the end of my term of service, I was offered to stay for an extended period of time. I agreed. I went home on a three-week vacation, got married, and took my wife to Sevastopol. In July 1940, he was sent to study at the Leningrad naval frontier school. That's where the war caught me. For the first few days, we cadets hoped that the enemy would be stopped and defeated, as defense Minister Voroshilov stated in his speech. The enemy was defeated! But at what cost!.. School stopped. A landing party was created from the sailors of submarines and us, cadets. I was appointed commander of the boat. The fascists, seizing the coast of the Gulf of Finland, approached Leningrad. In the shortest possible time, the military, including the wounded, had to leave the city by ship. My boat, as a convoy, was the last to leave the Harbor under heavy enemy fire. How many people died in those days? Only the sea knows… In December of the 41st, he was wounded and was taken to the Leningrad hospital. There was a famine in the city, and on December 23, we, who were not cured, left Leningrad on foot along the frozen Ladoga river, which was later called the "Road of life". Sergey Andreevich was lucky. He moved to Ladoga and was sent to Sunny Baku for further treatment. And then study again. After graduating from the higher naval school, Lieutenant Popov was placed at the disposal of the Volga military flotilla. ... Taking the boat, participated in the battles of Stalingrad. And again the wound. And again the front. He is the commander of a mine boat with a Katyusha rocket launcher. Participated in the liberation of Tallinn, Leningrad, Riga, Klaipeda, Narva, and the Estonian Islands. "The capture of the capital of Karelia left a deep mark on my memory. In early may, the 44th ships and boats of the Onega flotilla took up positions near the Vytegra base. In terrible battles with heavy losses destroyed the enemy's fortifications. The Karelian front advanced to Petrozavodsk… We landed under heavy crossfire. The success was enormous. The enemy did not have time to open fire and was crushed. The Nazis, hastily leaving the city, destroyed it almost to the ground, sank their ships. What started on the pier when we docked, it is impossible to describe! We fell into the arms of the Soviet people who were yearning in captivity. We were kissed and hugged. The boats were covered with flowers that had come from nowhere. Every resident wanted to touch us to make sure it wasn't a dream. The next day there was a rally in the city, where a member of the Central Committee of the Communist party of the Republic Yu. Andropov and other party leaders… Not to forget the archipelago Moonsund. Here, after the liberation of the city, Kuressaar ended up in a death camp. We, the sailors who have seen death more than once, have passed the war, have not seen such a terrifying picture. The atrocities of the fascists cannot be described" a Group of boats, one of which was commanded by Popov, met in Germany on may 9, 1945. Everyone cheered. This terrible, long war has come to an end!.. Popov probably would have served in the Navy until retirement. But the hardships of the war, the injuries made themselves felt. For health reasons, the sea had to be left. He moved with his family to the village of Gazoprovod, worked for 28 years in the Yeletsky UMG. He retired when he was 76. Sergey Andreevich raised three children. And though fate had saved him from death, it had not been easy, then or now. In 2001, his son died and he left four children. In General, Popov has six grandchildren, four great-grandchildren. Two grandchildren, like my grandfather, served in the Navy. There are pages about the order-bearer Popov in the book "Onego Battle pennants". Sergey Andreevich wrote a book about the battle path himself. He hopes that it will be published so that his grandchildren and great-grandchildren know that the veteran Popov did not live his life in vain… Prepared By A. Mitusova

Pinkenson Abram (Musya) Vladimirovich

Name: Pinkenson Abram (Musya) Vladimirovich last NAME: Pinkenson NAME: Abram (Musya) middle name: Vladimirovich CITY: Balti, Romania date of BIRTH: - DATE of DEATH: - HISTORY: He had long, thin fingers and could have been a great surgeon or musician. But his life ended in November 1942. The little violinist performed a single feat in his life. This feat lasted less than a minute, but it was remembered for many decades not only by residents of the Krasnodar village, but also by the whole country. Your little fight with the Nazis Musya of Pinkenson won, and his weapon of choice was the violin. Abram Pinkenzon, whose family affectionately called Musya (short for the diminutive "Abramusya", coined once by his mother), was born in the Romanian town of Balti. The boy came from a respected medical dynasty, his father and grandfather worked as doctors at a local hospital. However, the boy's main passion was playing the violin, for which he had a great talent, so most likely, he would have turned out to be not a doctor, but a great musician. From an early age, Musya was considered a child Prodigy and even wrote about him in local Newspapers. In 1941, when the war broke out, Musi's family was evacuated to the village of Ust-Labinskaya in the Krasnodar territory, where his father, Vladimir Borisovich, was assigned to a Soviet military hospital. He saved the wounded, and his 10-year-old son entertained them by playing the violin. The fighters loved Musya very much and always looked forward to his arrival. The following year, the Nazis broke into the village and seized the hospital. Vladimir Borisovich did not leave his wounded. And when the invaders demanded that the doctor now treat their soldiers, he refused. The Nazis arrested the doctor, his entire family, and other local Jews. In November 1942, it was decided to shoot all those arrested. To intimidate the local population, the fascists decided to make a show of this execution: Jews and other "unreliable" were brought to the Bank of the Kuban and lined up in front of the moat, while the rest were driven here from all over the district as "spectators". In deathly silence, watching the horror of the doomed people, the locals stood and were afraid no less than the condemned. Standing in the crowd of Jews awaiting execution, Musya clutched his small violin tightly to his chest. Vladimir Borisovich was the first to break down – he began to beg the executioners to spare his son. Then he was killed. Musi's mother, Fenya Moiseyevna, rushed to her husband, and also fell from the bullet. Silence fell over the river again. And then the voice was given by 11-year-old Musya, in front of whom his parents had just been shot. "Can I play the violin before I die?" he asked the German officer calmly. The fascists laughed in surprise and condescendingly agreed. Then something happened that the Germans did not expect. Instead of the pitiful music that a child might have played at such a moment, begging for mercy, the shrill sounds of the "international"broke out all over the neighborhood. Both the local residents standing at a distance and the Jews sentenced to execution timidly at first, and then more and more confidently picked up the melody and began to sing. This chorus of unconquered people plunged the fascists into shock and horror. Only for a few moments, though. When they came out of their stupor, they yelled at the boy to stop playing immediately. However, he continued. Then the Germans began furiously shooting the little musician. The sounds of the violin stopped only after he fell. Of course, Musya could not save others from being shot, and the execution was eventually completed. But he instilled in the residents of the village the belief that the fascists can be broken – even for a moment. And it was on this faith and will to win that the war was won. So we can say that Musya is the prototype of any Soviet soldier. A photo of Musi has been preserved. In the picture, he has a confident and bold look – there is no doubt that this is how he looked at the executioners in the last moments of his life. The monument to the violinist boy can be seen on the Embankment of Ust-Labinsk street (after the war, the village received the status of a city) - on the very Bank of the Kuban river. Nearby is a mass grave, in which, along with the violinist hero, about four hundred more civilians who were shot in 1942 are buried.

Perepadya Lavrentiy Borisovich

Full name: Perepadya Lavrenty Borisovich _x000D_ CITY: St. Georgievskaya Stavropol territory _x000D_ DATE of BIRTH: 25.08.1925 _x000D_ DATE of DEATH: 14.09.1944 _x000D_ _x000D_ HISTORY: The story of the uncle on the father's side-perepadya Lavrenty Borisovich is very short, 19 years long. And there is only one award - The order of the Red Star, which was not awarded because he was wounded in the battle of Grodno in September 1944 and went missing. He was born on August 25, 1925 in the village of Georgievskaya, Kuban region, Stavropol territory in the family of a Cossack collective farm accountant perepadya Boris Mareevich. There were three children, and he was the eldest. The family was hardworking, lived in prosperity. This was the reason for the dekulakization and exile of the father in 1937 under article 58 (Ten years without the right of correspondence). The father did not return home, the family was left without a breadwinner. From the age of 12, Lavrusha helped his mother. I finished my seven-year course and dreamed of studying further. But the war made its own adjustments. In may 1943, Lavrenty was less than 18 years old and he, like his other fellow villagers, was sent to study at the Ordzhonikidze military infantry school. Letters from Lavrusha to his native village did not come often. Sometimes they were full of strikeouts from the military censor. It was impossible to write too much. But they had so much respect and respect for my mother, relatives, friends! They have turned yellow for 70 years. At the creases, they are worn out, not all the text can be read. But every time my heart stops when I read these lines: "Today is August 25, a big day. The day of my birth. I only lived for 19 years. Entered the 20th year of his life. Mom, I didn't even notice how 19 years passed. In the twentieth year of my life, I will finish the German-fascist invaders. Mom, I don't know how it is at home, here the day of the 25th was clear, warm, calm… Today I met my friend from the village Makeyev, Fyodor in the city of Rezekne (Smiley face) (Latvia)... "There were no more letters. Then came a notification with the standard wording " Citizen perepadya Anna Prokhorovna that her son perepadya Lavrenty Borisovich, while at the front, was missing." Signature. Print.… And all. No, not all of them! In November 1944, a new notification arrived. It said that "your son second Lieutenant Lawrence B. perepada for exemplary performance of fighting tasks of command at the front struggle with German-fascist invaders and displaying valor and bravery awarded by the government award order "Red Star", which he received in connection with the retirement of his wound in the hospital." That's it now. No appeals to the military enlistment office were successful. It was only in August 1969 that some details became clear. My grandmother Anna Prokhorovna, together with the family of my younger son Nikolay (my father), already lived in Cherkessk. There she was found by her son's fellow soldier Bogatyrev Vasily Davidovich. He said that his commander, Lavrenty Borisovich, was seriously wounded near Grodno, in Belarus. A plywood bus carrying the wounded to the hospital came under fire. Nothing else is known. And the award was never given to anyone. Granny and I thought about this injustice for a long time. Time, of course, is lost. And there is no point in looking for the culprits. The time after the war was like this. Many archives were classified. But there is still hope to return my great-grandfather's well-deserved award to our family. And we will try to do it.

Vasiliy Emelyanovich Patrakov

Full name: Vasiliy Emelyanovich Patrakov _x000D_ PATRONYMIC: Yemelyanovich CITY: d. Navolok, Kichmengsko-Gorodetsky district, Vologda region _x000D_ DATE of BIRTH: 03.03.1915 _x000D_ DATE of DEATH: 05.01.1980 _x000D_ _x000D_ HISTORY: Vasily Emelyanovich was born on March 3, 1915 in a simple peasant family. In the first year of the war he worked as a tractor Kichmengsko-Gorodetsky MTS. Plowed collective farm fields. Tractor drivers were given a reservation in 1941, because they had to grow bread. But in June 1942, he was drafted into the active Red Army. He took the oath of office on July 7, 1942 with the 282nd reserve rifle regiment. He fought first as a mortar man in the 15th motorized rifle brigade, and then (from July 1943) as a commander of the 34th gun and artillery brigade's mortar squad. The mortars were of caliber of 82 and 102 mm. From July 17, 1942 to February 2, 1943, he participated in the battle of Stalingrad. For more than three months, soldiers marched to the Stalingrad front in huge columns around the clock, and no units returned. Military equipment was delivered in trains that went through 800 meters from each other in a continuous stream. From the memoirs of Vasily Yemelyanovich of the case when he managed to shoot down a German heavy bomber plane from a mortar. "It certainly flew slowly, because it was loaded with bombs to bomb Soviet cities. But still, it is difficult to shoot down a plane from a mortar when it is in the sky, where there are no landmarks. I did." Once he survived by a miracle, when a fascist tank drove over his legs. The only thing that saved me was that I was lying in a field, in a fairly deep furrow. After this injury, he lay in the hospital, then returned to the ranks, but continued to fight as a sanitary instructor, pulling wounded soldiers and officers from the battlefield. For selflessness and courage in the battles with the German invaders, he was awarded the order of the Red Star. From the award list, signed by the commander of the 1620 light artillery regiment, guards Lieutenant Colonel Shmantsar:".... November 7, 1843 in the battle in the area of d. Urycha, when two battalions of German infantry under the cover of tanks attacked the division's firing positions, exposing them to fierce mortar and artillery fire, tov. Patrakov, despising the danger, selflessly provided assistance to wounded soldiers and officers. Being himself wounded, he refused to leave the battlefield and, continuing his work, bleeding himself, carried 12 people with their weapons to safety. It was only when the sweat of his blood left him that he allowed himself to be carried away." There was a case when he saved a seriously wounded General, pulling him from the battlefield, was presented with the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, but in the heat of battle, this idea was lost somewhere... He was discharged on September 25, 1945, returned to his native village of Navolok and began to build a peaceful life. He worked on the collective farm "Builder of communism" as an ordinary collective farmer, married a girl from his own village. They had eight children, two died at an early age, and six were raised.

She remembers her childhood well. It was not well-fed and well-to-do, they had to work hard even when the war was not yet knocking on their doors, but Maria Georgievna never said that it was unhappy. When she was only 10, she was already doing half the work around the house, and even water could pull full buckets of a huge barrel. She also sang... She was always singing. Sings now, at 91 years old. The front line was not far from Slashchevskaya stanitsa. When the war started, everyone was working. High school students dug trenches, built defensive structures very close to the front line. Maria Georgievna says that when she and her classmates had to go to nursing courses, they not only learned how to dress the wounded and carry them out of the battlefield. They had to be able to assemble and disassemble a rifle, reload a machine gun, and dig a trench and throw a grenade. As early as November 1941. she received a summons to the military enlistment office, but almost immediately it was followed by a call to the Komsomol district Committee. In a neighboring village, located seventeen kilometers from Slashchevka, a math teacher, an adult man, was called to the front, and it was decided to send her to work there as a good student. "At first I was confused and offended that I seemed to be an evader, but the woman who recommended me for this position scolded me and said that it was no easier here than at the front, that teachers at school were needed no less than nurses at the front. And then I realized it was true." The school was located in seventeen kilometers from Sladewski. There was no transport, it was a cold winter in the middle zone. And our seventeen-year-old Maria Georgievna in light galoshes until the end of this winter walked to her work, taught math to children who were only two or three years younger than her. Then she was sent to the Institute for one year, so that she could take at least the basics of teaching methods. "I'm not so much hungry as frozen this winter. They lived in a Dorm where ice as thick as a fist grew on the window. It was draughty from all the cracks, and the girls and I went to bed in pairs to sleep at night, so that one mattress could be put on top of fur coats and blankets, and to keep each other warm. Bread was given out for five hundred grams a day, there was no other food, they drank tea without sugar, and when it was just boiling water." A year later, Maria Georgievna returned to school, to work, continuing to study in absentia. In 1945, she and her husband, Pyotr Nefedovich Pankratov, met as a married couple. He was a school principal. After the war, life was not in a rut for a long time, there were schools in dugouts, and a lack of basic clothing and food. But they did their job honestly, kept a small household, and raised two wonderful children, Olimpiada Petrovna, who became an excellent math teacher, and Alexander Petrovich, who was a very talented dentist.

Pliner Samuil Isaakovich

Full name: Pliner Samuel Isaakovich last NAME: Pliner FIRST name: Samuel PATRONYMIC: Isaakovich CITY: - date of BIRTH: - DATE of DEATH: - HISTORY: I consider it my duty to inform you about the veteran of the second world war, my father Pliner Samuel Isaakovich, born in 1908. He participated in the battles near the cities: Staraya Russa (1943, private of the North-Western front) Kryvyi Rih (private of the 3rd Ukrainian front) Budapest (1945, with the rank of second Lieutenant). This title Pliner Samuel Isaakovich received at the courses of Junior lieutenants of the Central group of troops. For service in the Army, he had medals and an order. He was wounded, since February 1944, was treated in the evacuation hospital. Then he was sent to the Junior Lieutenant courses. From may to August 1945, he was a platoon commander and worked as a division lecturer. Dad didn't like to talk about the war, his memories were too heavy. However, he mentioned one case. Dad was in the trench with his colleagues. Suddenly the commander sends the Pope for water. Dad returns and sees that there is no trench, no people – one terrible mess. It turns out that the place where they were sitting, there was a direct hit by a shell. Here's how to survive it? We can't know what he felt when he returned, we can only guess. I understand only one thing for sure: we are in this world thanks to our veterans. There were many different hardships and trials in my father's life. Difficulties to settle down with the family in one place, the lack of their own housing, frequent moves to Russia, and then to Estonia and Armenia did not prevent to preserve the unique documents of those years. Including the " Order of the military Institute of foreign languages of the state guard. To second Lieutenant Pliner Samuel Isaakovich from August 14, 1945 to leave at the disposal of the OK of the Central group of troops to the former place of service". This document has been carefully and respectfully preserved in the family archive for almost 75 years. I hope that the main milestones of my father's biography will arouse interest. He was born on June 4, 1908 in Saint Petersburg. He graduated from high school N159, then two-year courses (1929-1930) on the organization of production, worked in this specialty as an instructor, a teacher in the Federal law and technical schools. Since 1938, he studied at the Pedagogical Institute. Pokrovskogo at the faculty of Russian language and literature, which with the outbreak of war was transferred to the citySyktyvkar Komi ASSR. There he passed the last tests and exams, received a diploma of higher education. He was conscripted into the Army in 1942. I would like to keep the memory of my father not only as a veteran, but also as a person. He had a pronounced personality, creative inclinations in the Humanities, erudition, knowledge of foreign languages, and was very original. Forgive me for the "lyrical digression", but here I want to write how the fateful meeting of my parents took place. This happened before the war, in 1938. My mother, Agnia Gagarina, is Russian and came to Leningrad to study. At that time, dancing was a popular and common place for young people to socialize, and it was there that they met. Imagine this picture: dad is a native of St. Petersburg, an intelligent, imposing brunette with already noticeable gray hair, at the age of 30, and she is very nice, 9 years younger than him, with ashen hair and unusual light blue eyes. Later, my father told me that my mother won him over not only with her appearance, but also with her dignity, modesty, a great desire to get an education, join and learn the culture of the great city. In the autumn of the same year, 1938, they were married. My Russian mother took my father's Jewish surname Pliner. To anyone who knows Soviet history, it is not necessary to explain that this was an act on my mother's part , especially since they were married in Leningrad , where after the death of Kirov, repression intensified. My parents lived together for more than 50 years, and in their family life "ice and fire came together": a calm, patient, self-contained mother and an explosive, emotional father with their own opinions, often going against the official one. Mom waited for dad all the war, when it started, she was only 24 years old. My mother went through all the hardships of evacuation, cold, hunger, other people's uncomfortable corners. In one year, her food cards were stolen, she barely survived because of hunger, and for the rest of her life she remembered this incident. My mother, while being evacuated, worked in hospitals and orphanages. This cursed war that took and maimed the lives of millions of people ended, and Victory Day came. I am sending you a photograph of my father taken shortly after the war ended. On the back of the picture, dad's handwriting says: Austrian Alps, June 2, 1945. Squinting against the sun, he looks into the unpredictable distance, probably thinking that there is waiting for him in the future in a peaceful life. 2 days later, on June 4, he turned 37. My father was discharged in November 1945 and came to Solikamsk, where his wife and mother were waiting for him. He immediately began teaching at the local pedagogical Institute. Fate would have it that exactly 9 months later a joyful and long-awaited event occurred in the family – on July 26, 1946, I, Yevgenia Samuilovna Pliner, was born. After wandering in the evacuation, the family really wanted to return to their native Leningrad, but there they had no housing. At that time, Estonia, then called the Tallinn region, was heavily populated. The Pope appealed to the appropriate authorities and the family was given a call to move to Narva, just 120 km away. from Leningrad. Dad was immediately given a job as the head of the academic Department at secondary school 1, and my mother was given a teaching position and housing. For a family of 4 people, half of the Finnish house was allocated. The house was white and cozy, with a front garden. These are my first childhood memories, I definitely felt good there. The whole of Narva was destroyed, the city was in ruins of red brick. Before my eyes, the city was rebuilt, industry was restored, including the Krenholm manufactory, which in Soviet times employed about 12,000 people. Schools and Palaces of culture were built, where famous theaters from Leningrad, Tallinn, and Moscow toured, and celebrities performed. My family for 30 years of his life in Narva 4 times received public housing On the share of my parents dropped a lot of difficulties and trials. Parents were workaholics, worked in schools, technical schools on 1.5-2 rates, and, as you know, the work of a teacher is not the easiest. Dad also found his vocation as a lecturer from the society "Knowledge", then it was a very well-organized structure. Here and useful to the full extent of his truly encyclopedic knowledge, erudition and outstanding memory, and natural intelligence. He always prepared carefully, compiled a file, selected material, and looked for interesting facts. The lecture usually lasted 1 hour and 20 minutes and he read it from memory standing or walking around the stage. Try to spend so much time talking in public without getting lost. Often his lectures were held in the Palace of culture. It was a real Palace, with columns, a magnificent brightly lit foyer, internal balconies on the second floor, and a beautiful hall. For the lecture work, the Pope received many thanks and certificates from the Republican and city authorities. The most important thing is that it had its own audience, its own listeners, it was a success, its performances were expected, the audience went to it. He also found himself in journalism, his articles were published in the city, Republican and public press. This is how our life went in Narva. It was impossible to call Narva a province at that time. We had frequent trips to Leningrad, Tallinn, Moscow to theaters, museums, and exhibitions. This is probably the life my parents dreamed of during the war. At the age of 72, the Pope, with his active character, continued to work, gave lectures from the "Knowledge" society, published his articles in the Republican press, and was translated into Armenian. My father worked until July 1989, when my mother, Pliner Agnia Nikolaevna, died. Her death devastated dad, and he never recovered from her loss. Samuil Isaakovich died in 1992. May the memory of my parents be blessed! Here is basically everything I wanted to tell you about my father, a veteran of the great Patriotic war and his family (about my mother and me). My young friends, I wish you a long and happy life, joy and success. Appreciate and use every moment for good, take care of each other, and also: talk to your parents.
