I found a picture of his grandfather on the Internet Bashny.Net

Quite by accident site "Military album" found a photo of his grandfather (a good project as the military even found photos of familiar places, in general, I recommend). In view of the fact that after the death of my mother, all grandfather's photographs and medals, as well as documents (including an officer's book) took my uncle, and I have only the post-war photography, for me, this picture is priceless.

That is my grandfather, cool Peter A., ​​born in 1907 Battery IPTAP political officer at the front in August 1941. Sitting on a shelf nadgusenichnoy T-34-85 in kombeza and cap with sunglasses (very strongly suspect that he had come to his wartime friend, I know that, too, but photos can not be determined because not remember in the face).

7 photo.





In 1942, he fought near Novgorod. He was taken to hospital - dystrophy and lobar pneumonia. Entry found www.obd-memorial.ru in the book of the dead on the PPG 160. "ill in part", the date of the disposal 03/21/1942 Mr.

I remember a conversation between father and grandfather in the kitchen (the grandfather categorically told about the war, so I know only two episodes of his war). & quot; Valya was hungry. And very hungry. Enough was vodka, tobacco and ammunition. Plump from starvation, many were dying from simple diseases complicated by hunger. The common cold, pneumonia, scurvy - Novgorod, around marshes, there is nothing. At night, they are chosen and changed into neutral vodka and shag the Germans on food. In the morning, tearing each other's throats ... They were shooting each other. There I fell ill and was taken to hospital & quot ;.
