"MEMORY TAPE"

«PAGEICHKA PAM`YATI »

Life becomes history. Every moment, every minute, every year remains a memory within us. The rapid passage of time does not allow us to reconsider our memories. But today we must be honest and forthright. What is left in our memory that our descendants will remember?

Today is May 9, 2020. Victory Day is the 75th anniversary.

This is a big holiday for us. In our country, every family has its heroes - defenders of the Motherland, who won the victory at the cost of their lives. At other times, this day would be adorned with red tulips and lilacs, people would go to the Eternal Flame, congratulate the gray veterans, gather with families and sing songs of the war years. The present does not give us the opportunity to be together on the day of the great Victory. But this does not mean that we cannot remember our heroic grandfathers and great-grandfathers who defended our land from the Nazi invasion or forged Victory in the rear. We are proud of the Heroes! And we remember at what price the happiness won.

 

NatalandI am Kowalska, teacher

My family has a memory of my grandfather - Sablin Ivan Naumovich. He defended the homeland from the first days of the war. His wife was brought to the funeral three times. But new letters confirmed that he was alive and would be at the forefront again after the hospital. And that he will not perish until he sees that the Reichstag has fallen. He is considered missing. The last letter was from Stalingrad.

His eldest son - Sablin Grigory Ivanovich - and after the war was in the army, returned home in 1947. He rebuilt his native village, raised his younger brother and sister, because they were left without a mother.

My children and grandchildren will remember their relatives who defended the Motherland and their future.

 

 

 

 

Dokashenko Halyna Petrovna

I am a child of the second postwar decade, but the war has affected me as well. I grew up not knowing any of my grandparents. They both remained on the battlefield: Tishyn Vasyl Hnatovych died on the Kursk Arc in the summer of 1943, and Bezruk Fedor Vasyliovych died during Operation Bagration on Belarusian soil in 1944.

I was lucky enough to talk to my husband's living parents, who were participants in the hostilities - Mykola Mykolayovych Dokashenko ended the war as a sailor in the Pacific Fleet, and Valentina Pavlovna Sarkits served in the Political Department of the 4th Ukrainian Front and ended the war in Prague.

Every year the number of veterans of that war becomes smaller and smaller. The kingdom of heaven is for all who are not with us.

Our grandchildren know the history of their family, which means that the connection between the generations is not lost.

 

Belitska Eugene Nikolaevna

I bow my head in gratitude to the defenders of the Motherland who won the Great Patriotic War! The memory of your feat will forever remain in our hearts!

Grandparents:

 

Mykola Dmytrovych Beletsky. The Kuban Cossack, the only member of the family (who was taken to Siberia) was able to escape from the cart, sat for several days in the swamps, became deaf in one ear. He hid this information at the military registration and enlistment office. And so he passed - almost deaf - the whole war. Knight of the Order of the Patriotic War. Silent, fair, with great inner strength and dignity.

 

 

 

 

Butsenko Karpo Kharlampiyovych. He escaped from his cruel parents from Bessarabia and ended up in Dzerzhinsky's colony, the same one where "Mustafa paved the road - Mustafa walked on it." He was severely wounded in the Finnish war. He worked all his life as a driver in the suburbs of Moscow. Freedom-loving, kind, with a sincere, open soul.

This is my roots and IM Zapasnaya. We are proud!

My great-grandfather Kontsur Ivan Naumovich fought in April 1944. He was a radio operator in the 330th Fighter-Antitank Regiment of the First Ukrainian Front. He provided communication and fixed telephone cable breaks during combat. Repeatedly awarded for courage and perseverance, he fought in Poland, where he was ambushed during a cable test and managed to emerge victorious, destroying 4 and capturing 2 opponents. For this feat he was awarded the Order of Glory III degree. When he returned home to the Zaporozhye region, he was 21 years old.
