and recently the serviceman was awarded the rank of junior lieutenant and presented with a medal for bravery. i accepted a contract under the dpr in 2017 . i served until the twenty-first year in a tank unit, but as i said, i was a signalman, but in the twenty-first year i quit, in the twenty-second year, since the mtr began, i immediately went, and from the first days the military registration and enlistment office voluntarily went, without waiting for a summons , i’m tired of having to wait and look at all this.

kind of south. an ordinary horde serves in the northern military district zone for a year and a half. participated in assault operations. as part of an evacuation group , he pulled the wounded out of the battlefield. awarded the st. george cross, fourth degree. i’ve been serving since mobilization, if i’m not mistaken, it’s been a year and a half since my relatives have been calling. that's it, the summons has arrived. well, she came and came, let’s go if i need her. why do you have a ringing horde? well,? this is firstly connected with the place where i come from, when they just mobilized there and my friends were like, you will all be a horde, as it were, and since this is connected with the place where i come from, i try not to interfere with this call, worthy of showing himself, well, i don’t know, it’s not for me to judge, but it seems to be working out fine so far, i’m volga john, welcome, john, i’m volga at the reception, some of the fighters, like me, are from the republic of tatarstan, we also have orthodox christians. there are also muslims, so we all

interact, we all support each other, this is probably where our strength lies, i, as a company commander, before each exit we have a chapel corner, well, i always read a prayer, what is your relationship like in the company are adding up, have you found any friends here? military camaraderie is probably the most strong friendship that exists, well, at the moment there are closer people than we don’t have here, we... one family tries to always support each other and always cover for each other, and just like in a combat situation, there is a tatar brother on vacation , so i’m kind of walking and how if only someone else is russian, maybe there is someone here, by the way, like nowhere else in life, you take a closer look at people, even when i came on vacation. i noticed that

you are starting to take a closer look at people, people are as open as a book, as if when something doesn’t happen according to plan, there is a cutting edge, right away as if the face is visible, both orthodox and muslims are fighting, respectful relations towards each other? yes, of course, well, where would we be without this, as if we were doing one thing, you know, or as if, at any moment, any person, you can sometimes pray for him to come running to you, so yes, this is a good relationship,

support people of donbass, to liberate, we must in any case reach the end, to victory, no matter how long it lasts, but we must end this, in any case , the truth is with us, god is with us, we will win, all the guys know what we are fighting for, what we do, the main thing is that they understand that no one else will do this except us, our life is divided into...

so much so that we kind of got here, now it turns out, after that we are no longer civilians and you can’t even call us military, military is a profession, and here we are... in war there are different values, here people are fighting, they understand that every day these are events associated with great risk, but when that entry occurs, the guys exit, participation in hostilities, everything is done only at the command of the commander, there is no other way to jump here, it practically depends on the commander whether you will remain alive today or not, turn around, cling to your backpack. we work for you as a company commander, what is the responsibility? i consider my main task to be preserving the life and health of personnel in order to subsequently fulfill the assigned tasks. what was and

is the hardest thing for you here? not be able to help your comrades in completing a task. there are situations when a unit or a neighboring unit performs tasks, but you... due to certain circumstances cannot do it do nothing, but in general we try to support and cover neighboring units, and our guys, if the trench is empty, this is additional attention to the fact that the enemy most likely mined the position when leaving it, i had a dream, as soon as we mobilized us, but just go outside the gate of the unit, there is a military id. that the bale, the press, demobilization, and you realized, you understand that everything, damn it, all this nightmare is over, but that was then, that was a year ago, now there is no such dream, now we have to make our own

the job is good, in fact it turns out, i love my job, that’s what i’m doing now, not fighting specifically, i’m training the guys, preparing them, preparing them, because in principle i know that... there, whatever, and what do we have to do? i put my heart and soul into teaching this to the kids. almost all the military personnel with whom we spoke had to pull wounded comrades from the battlefield, evacuate people and provide them with first aid. this is perhaps the hardest thing in war, because a person’s life is in your hands, which must be saved at any cost. the fighters are trained here. and they know how to do it, and most importantly , they are confident in each other, no one will let you down or leave them in trouble, i was initially in an evacuation group, i was appointed by the company commander, the company commander was the first to go into this assault, was wounded, the first contact who

happened to the enemy, we began to crush them in the trench, they opened fire on us for 3 hours, well, from the side with a machine gun, then i received the first wound in the chest, not severe, so i got up, then they entered the battle, started throwing grenades about after, like you got injured you got up some more, but it turned out that the first bullet went here, just under the t-shirt, well, it caught the left side, got up, everything was fine, continued the fight, the guys reported that there were guy wires on the trench, that is, it’s hard to penetrate there, plus the birds flew in, the guys started throwing nightmares, the second bullet had already arrived, i could see it from the side. also went under the shirt, hit the cross, ricocheted, i was shooting at that moment, it ricocheted, tore my right breast, entered my arm, came out through my arm, there of course i had to roll away, there already we no longer had the strength to get up, so we already rolled back, but the assault ended without two hundred,

okay, the guys there all remained alive, the enemy left the position just at the moment when we were finishing the assault, so we can assume that we took the position on the left purely. then we would have entered the high-rise building, taken off the armored armor, provided first aid, but he was evacuated from there, it was scary, honestly scary, yes, scary, yes, that something wouldn’t work out, yes, and if something didn’t work out, then this can lead to even more serious consequences when

the boys carried him out, they ordered me to remain in position, as if my close comrades, then i was also wounded and how i was struck, i heard, this is the same... heavy even when i myself still doubt that i was right then i entered, that is , they told me to kind of stay where i was, but i wanted to be closer to them, to help them, as it were, and that’s it myself... they’re tough, well, they’re all alive, thank god, i say, they’re tough guys . , drone, threw a grenade, and i also received shrapnel wounds to my face, my leg was caught, i was left with eight shrapnel me in the face, and after being wounded you could not demobilize, only why should demobilizations be formed, but how to continue to defend all this, that is, you didn’t even have such thoughts, there were no thoughts at all. i would like to get back from the hospital as quickly as possible, to help my guys as quickly as possible, well

, this is a family, this is a second family, our second family, when it rains, especially heavily, this is generally the coolest weather, this is the safest weather, yes, yes, it was it would be great, like this, especially to change, well, i mean when... because when it’s raining heavily, the birds don’t fly, and if there’s still a strong wind, it’s generally great, but it took a long time to recover after being wounded, well, basically it took a month and a half, but even when i returned, i immediately went with my another volga on the way out, well, of course, then i realized that i kind of got excited, i did it too early, but just as an athlete, i know that when you get injured, it is very important to integrate into the training process as quickly as possible. into the competitive process, then psychological trauma will not occur. yalta - professional athlete, winner

of the world and european championships in traditional karate, international master of sports. in 2019, he assembled a team and this sport was officially registered in the dpr. a year later, his athletes already went to the european championships. six people from the republic fulfilled the standard of an international master of sports . for a month the house of mobilization. yalta itself won the gold of the russian championship, fate decreed that sports awards were replaced by two orders of courage, if possible, military personnel continue to train, you can’t knock out an athlete from the inside with any kind of tricks or forces. while in kherson, i commanded a platoon, a separate platoon, we won’t specify which one, it’s just a separate special platoon, so i organized a large huge gym there. i started conducting training there in basic military training, tactical training, plus general physical training, with a shooting range,

for throwing knives, for shooting, well, when we moved here, it’s the same here, we made a tactical hall with imitation of trenches, with obstacles, well, plus general classes physical and tactical training was carried out here and there in the same way, and under these conditions we continue to do the same, especially education. in a real battle, already from a direct collision, and i didn’t feel fear or anything like

that, i won’t say that i enjoyed it, but i understood what had to be done, a grenade, the participants in the special operation remember and honor the fallen soldiers of our great patriotic days, in donetsk, on the alley of heroes, in the leninsky komsomo park, busts of dpr defenders were installed, in the memorial complex immortalized by alexander zakharov. head, arsen pavlov, motorola, commander of the sparta reconnaissance unit, mikhail tolstykh, givi, commander of the somali battalion, joseph kobzon and other heroes. soldiers of the rifle regiment performed the legendary katyusha in the park. our guys not only fight, but also manage to engage in creative work, which they dedicate to the memory of heroes and the great holiday, victory day. she was leaving. the battalion commander was so

athletic, energetic, that’s a plus with a creative approach, with talent, we started very modestly, first with conducting events in several sports, we first started with the companies, as if internally, this was only then involved by the entire battalion, we had already recorded videos with the performance of katyusha’s song, creativity helps soldiers maintain their morale, the command organizes in free moments. excursions for military personnel to the sights of the republic. the soldiers remember that their grandfathers and great-grandfathers once fought here. this is another motivation - to fight for a just cause today. we organized a trip to saur-mogila. so, well, we try to write down our video music videos, yes, so that you can send them to your family, and for yourself.

what did you perform at saur mogila? at the saur grave they sang the song katyusha, together with. which paints a picture: the toy apple trees dawned, the fog floated over the river, katyusha came out with us, on a high run on a steep one, katyusha went to the bank, on a high bank on a steep one,

i’ll say it’s very impressive, because we went, they took us on an excursion to museum. great patriotic, and there is a dummy, here are the battles of the fourteenth years, when the men defended this, it’s very, well, strong on me i was impressed, i listened to the guide, then i went there myself, we also had an excursion to our grave, well, yes, it touches the heart of these men there, who fought for the same cause as i did here, as if i i really understand what it was like in the position, when everything was flying in, somehow it really touched my soul. how did the idea to record videos come about? the idea appeared a year ago, having already been separated from our loved ones for quite a long time, we decided to record a video on the elements konstantin simonov, wait for me, so i can send

him to his family and friends home. so that they look, see us, wait for me, and i will return, just wait, wait, when the load comes, yellow rains, wait, when the snow is blowing, wait, when it’s hot, wait, when others are not expected, having forgotten yesterday, wait for me , and i will return, don’t wish well, to everyone who knows by heart that it’s time to forget how i survived, we will know, only you and i, you just knew how to wait like no one else, on the scorched land of donetsk, tell us what songs you play, well, a song we mainly play military ones related to the great patriotic war, the afghan war, this is, firstly, a tribute to the memory and respect of our senior comrades, our fathers, our grandfathers, who defended this homeland, to which we sang these songs, and

secondly , this is a lift, so to speak, of mood. skogo mood, fighting. i often dream of my home, the forest dreams of something of its own, the gray cuckoo across the river, the gray cuckoo across the river calculates how long i have left to live. “how long do i have left to live, he thinks, i pressed tenderly to the flower, the stem of the blasphemer is crushed, and they sound a lazy peek-a-boo, measuring the lives of my dates,

falsified several times, of course, but why was katyusha chosen for the video? but we thought so, and the battalion commander decided: why don’t you sing katyusha? everyone knows the song, this summer it will most likely be possible to again organize the testing of the gto standards together with the officers in all-around. yeah, kettlebell lifting, table tennis, by the way, is also very interesting, about a popular sport among military personnel, folk bench press, barbell, in principle quite simple and at the same time, as it were, indicative. then to hold, make a big holiday, a general one, yes, starting from tug of war and some kind of military relay race, you just need

to stretch out the whole thing for a few days, because the unit, the unit performing a combat mission, so that they all also take part , what is worth living for, i really want to live for my children, i want to live for my family, i want... i want to see this world, which will already come, when everything will be quiet, it will be, well, almost 10 years already, and the children will already a generation has already grown up, my wife came, she says, she tells me in kindergarten, my dad went to study for me, but he’s an officer, it’s very, very nice, very nice when the children admire it, it’s just that my eldest son is at school too and there are poems there some military men tell stories there, well, he also says he wrote essays there about the father of a military man.

where any child came out, made any wish you wanted, and this wish was fulfilled, well, some have a computer, some have a laptop, some have a bicycle, and my daughter came out and said: i want to perform on the big stage, dmitry anatolyevich pevtsov, an actor, plus a people’s deputy, reacted to this , swam, swam, swam and passed. everyone is now told from the very beginning of the concert about yaroslava, about the wishing tree, about the dad who is at war, about the dad who was wounded, about the dad, about the dad who is waiting for

the award of the order of courage, just like that he just tells everything from the stage , he sees a girl singing with me, who took part in the wish tree program in our house, her wish was the leader’s, during this time his dad, vladimir, who moved here. nice it was that my daughter began her solo career on the stage, right here in the kremlin palace, after all, the wish came true, yes, more than ever, who could have wished for it, very well.

at the end of the concert, elderly, middle -aged people came up and said hello , some cried, of course it was exciting with words of gratitude that we were fighting and it was, well, unexpectedly such a pleasant experience. what do you dream about, what are your thoughts? well, i don’t look too far ahead, of course, about the demobilization , how they are mobilized to return, hug her, hug my mom, yes, i would like to hug your mom, and my mother-in-law, how would older people send them somewhere for treatment to some resort, i don’t know, well, that’s what i’m thinking about now, but i myself -what i need in the near future. than you have to think, as it were, every moment, every moment, every minute of your life, it becomes simply priceless, you begin to understand this, and every

moment when you spend with loved ones, with family people, this is generally, but there is gold, even getting home, just passing by, if you drop by for lunch there for work, you sit down, you treat every moment with reverence, this is very, very important, life is already becoming, it is becoming longer, come in. well , the 2 to 2 years that are here in the war, i have experienced more than many people can experience there in 10, 20 in their entire life, the war will end, i even want to drive through those places, for example, pass the same hospital, where i was to look, but here are the places of training where i was, these are the territories skonorussky, he will definitely pass through them too kherson region, zaporizhia region, where i was, there are plans, i can say, so good, the values ​​of the worldview have changed, and not only strengthened, i realized that we are going.

in the right way, we do what we must do, protect, protect peaceful people, protect children, and our territory, the territory of russia. soldiers of the rifle regiment liberated marinka. the victory made it possible to move the front line away from donetsk, because ukrainian militants also attacked civilians from this settlement. our heroes participate in assault operations on liberation of the villages of the donbass settlements, the names of which cannot yet be revealed, they are gradually moving forward, pushing back the enemy, very soon they will install the russian flag and the banner of victory in another city, after all, my obediences, they are over, not all of them, forgive me, lord, all hope lies with you.
