Yakov Alexandrovich Romanov Branch of the service: ground forces, air force (except naval aviation), coastal service, “NKVD” troops, border troops. Subdivision: 24th Guards Rifle Evpatoria Red Banner Division. Yakov Romanov was born in 1925 in the village of Semibalki. He lived with his father, Alexander Grigorievich Romanov, mother Nadezhda Ivanovna Romanova, brother Semyon, sister Olga. He was 17 years old when the German army came to his native village. Father Alexander Grigorievich went to the partisans, was soon shot. The eldest son Semyon died in 1943 near Kerch. Yakov, along with his sister and mother, helped the partisans. Swarthy, brown-eyed, cheerful, hard-working, mischievous boy. Yasha Romanov volunteered in 1943 with units of the 44th Army. He fought in the 6th rifle company of the 70th regiment of the 24th rifle division. On May 9, 1944, the advanced units of the 2nd Guards. armies, attacked Sevastopol from the north, went on the offensive. The regiment commander Drygin invited volunteers to his place, among them was Yakov. With five comrades (K. Visovin, scout, holder of the Order of Glory, private sapper A. Sotsenko, private shooter Yakov Romanov, led the group sapper, communist Lieutenant A. Zemkov, machine gunner I. Dubinin) they were to take a foothold across the northern bay, preparing for the landing. Visovin had saved the boat in the evening, it turned out to be roomy. She was carried to the shore in her arms. They sailed silently, trying not to find themselves. The sea was foggy. There were about a hundred meters to the shore. The fog thinned out, the Nazis noticed the boat, opened fire. Automatic bursts tore apart the night sea. Under targeted enemy fire, they landed in the central part of the city and entered the battle. They fought off attack after attack. The soldiers, the regiment, also crossing, immediately entered the battle. Yasha Romanov did not notice how he was left alone with the pressing Germans. The Nazis surrounded him. One by one, the guards dropped out. Lieutenant Zemkov was seriously wounded, he was unconscious. Sotsenko died. Dubinin continued to fight off the Germans. The comrades were dying, and the young fighter Yakov Romanov took refuge in the crevice of the Sapun mountain rock. The Germans could not approach him, he mowed them down from his machine gun until the cartridges ran out. The Germans tried to break into the crevice, take him alive. But Yasha, a Russian guy, did not give up, he nimbly, with boyish prowess, tried to kill the Germans with a knife. Strength were running out, he was wounded, alone, unarmed. He could not allow the enemies to take prisoner. He made the only correct decision. He stabbed the fascists who were trying to get to him in the crevice with a knife. The Germans fired guns at the cleft in a rage. Yakov Romanov died, but the Nazis failed to break his Russian spirit. He loved life very much, loved his land, his home. Steep cliffs overgrown with rose hips and sea daisies. The cry of seagulls over the calm water, the gentle rustle of the surf, the crimson sunset. How can all this be betrayed, destroyed? It is impossible for someone else's forged boots to trample on his native land. He did not regret his youth and gave everything to the last drop for you and me. So that other boys do not see the horrors of war, so that they study, work, live a peaceful life. We must always remember about his deed, in the name of life. Comrades found twenty-nine dead German soldiers around the crevice, one he stabbed with a knife. The Germans, in a rage, shot the crevice with guns. The soul of a young village boy, a child, could not be broken by the Nazi. They will never understand Russians if children destroy dozens of enemy lives in one life. On March 24, 1945, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR awarded with the title of Hero of the Soviet Union posthumously. In the museums of Sevastopol, this is recorded in the "Book of Memory". The young man wrote a letter home before the battle.

Dolgikh Ivan Petrovich My great-grandfather, according to my mother, was a very kind person, an avid fisherman, very fond of the forest. When my mother was little, they often went on foot, sometimes for very long distances. My great-grandfather was drafted into the Red Army in 1939. He began his service in the NKVD as a machine gunner. During the great Patriotic war, 17 echelons were sent to strengthen the Belarusian front, including my great-grandfather. Soon they were bombed, only 2 of the 17 echelons were left. The further they moved, the more they lost their comrades. The Germans bombed without stopping. When there were less than 20 of them left, the senior survivor, a Lieutenant in rank, gathered them and said: "Save yourself as best you can." They broke into groups and started moving, moving only at night, hiding during the day. Soon they were surrounded by the Germans and captured. My great-grandfather was a prisoner for two years. I experienced all the difficulties, all the hardships of captivity and torture. Later, four soldiers, he among them, escaped. During the escape, one died while passing through the barbed wire. The three of them made their way to ours, sleeping on the ground in the forest, making a bed out of lapnik. We went to the villages at night, so that no one would notice, we made our way to the haylofts, and it was happiness to sleep on soft hay. They ate berries and mushrooms. In the forest, they were attacked by the Germans (a small group of 4 people), but they won over them, capturing weapons. Once they got lost, hiding in a swamp, but the path was shown to them by boys who were grazing horses. Only thanks to their willpower and perseverance were able to reach ours. My great-grandfather returned from the war in 1945. Worked as a tractor driver, foreman. Before retiring as a storekeeper. In the post-war years, my grandfather got married and had 4 children. At an early age, a daughter drowned, and she and her grandmother suffered this loss very hard. My mother passed on the memory of my great-grandfather to me and my older brother, and I will keep this memory and pass it on to my children. Great-grandfather was awarded the order of Patriotic War II degree, the badge "Veteran", medal of Zhukov, medal "40 years of Victory in the great Patriotic war", medal "50 years of Victory in the great Patriotic war", medal "60 years of Armed forces USSR", medal "70 years to Armed Forces of the USSR".

From the author: grandfather Mitya and grandmother Olya said little about the war, apparently so this "piece" of life crippled the soul, then still young and dreamy guys! They spent the whole summer at the dacha, and when the cranes flew in flocks high in the sky, grandfather raised his gray head and called in an exciting voice: - Olya, the cranes are flying! – and they stood together for a long time and watched the train fly away into the distance…
