Although the squad - it's too loud word with the commander, there were only six. Weapons and ammunition was virtually no winter approached, and infinite groups of the German army is already approaching Moscow.
Recognizing that for the preparation of defense of the capital is necessary as much as possible, the guerrillas decided to blow up the strategically important area of the railway station at Myshbor. Explosives were few detonators were not quite, but Osipenko decided to detonate the bomb with the help of grenades. Silently and invisibly group moved close to the railroad tracks and found the explosives. Send to a friend back and left alone, the commander saw the train coming, he threw a grenade and fell into the snow. But the explosion, why is not there, then Yefim Ilyich himself hit the bomb sixth sign from the train. Sound of explosion derailed and went a long train of food and tanks.

Having a location Nazis Chekhovich was appointed administrator at the local cinema, which he planned to blow up. To business, he hooked Yevgeny Vasilyev - the sister of his wife has been employed as a cleaner in a movie theater. Every day she sneaked through several briquettes into a bucket of dirty water and a cloth. This theater became a mass grave for 760 soldiers and officers of the German - unremarkable "administrator" to set the bomb load-bearing columns and the roof, so that the explosion of the whole structure formed as a house of cards.
