Life is a spark
Life is a spark On the right side of the photo is common soldier Lagunov Vasily Grigorievich, my uncle who has not returned from the war. Always 18 years old. The eldest in the family, following his father and uncle, attributed a year to himself, went to the front in March 1943. Killed in action on February 14, 1944. Buried in a mass grave in Terebutitsy village, Shimsky district, Novgorod (Leningrad) region far from home in the village of Nizhniy Yar, Kurgan region. Even in a military photo of a bad quality, I see the light of goodness, peasant simplicity and childish openness pouring from the eyes of this boy who loved to play pranks at home and work well on the collective farm. How difficult it is to look at this photo, realizing that the hero's path is short, but glorious.
