Medics heroes. Zinaida Samsonova

During the war years, more than two hundred thousand doctors and half a million medium medical personnel worked in the rear. And half of them were women.
The working day of the doctors and nurses of medical schools and front-line hospitals often lasted a few days. Sleepless nights. Medical workers were relentlessly stood near operating tables, and one of them pulled out on her back from the battlefield of the killed and wounded. Among the doctors there were many of their "sailors", which, saving the wounded, covered them with their bodies from bullets and fragments of shells.
They are not sparing, as they say their belly, raised the spirit of warriors, raised the wounded from the hospital bed and sent them again to fight their country, their homeland, their own people, their home from the enemy. Among the numerous army of doctors, I want to name the name of the hero Soviet Union Zinaida Alexandrovna Samsonova, who went to the front when she was only seventeen years old. Zinaida, or, as it was cute called Odnopall, Zinechka, born in the village of Bobkovo, Egoryevsky district, Moscow region.
Before the war he himself went to study at the Yegoryev Medical School. When the enemy joined her native land, and the country was in danger, Zina decided that it would definitely go to the front. And she rushed there.
In the current army, it since 1942 and immediately turns out to be advanced. There was Zina sanitary instructor of the rifle battalion.

The special period of the activities of the Soviet External Intelligence officers is associated with the Great Patriotic War. Already at the end of June 1941, the USSR Defense Committee had just considered the issue of external exploration and clarified its tasks. They were subordinated to one goal - a speedy defeat of the enemy. For the exemplary implementation of special tasks in the enemy's rear, nine personnel officers of foreign intelligence were awarded a high rank of the Hero of the Soviet Union. This is S.A. Vaupshasov, I.D. Kudrya, N.I. Kuznetsov, V.A. Lyagin, D.N. Medvedev, V.A. Well done, kp Orlovsky, N.A. Prokopyuk, A.M. Rabtsevich. Here we will tell about one of the explosion-hero - Nikolae Ivanovich Kuznetsov.

Since the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, it was enrolled in the fourth department of the NKVD, the main task of which was the organization of intelligence-diversion activities in the rear of the enemy. After numerous training and studying in the camp for prisoners of war and life of the Germans, under the name of Paul Wilhelm Siberta, Nikolai Kuznetsov was sent to the rear of the enemy along the terror line. First, the special agent led his secret activity in the Ukrainian city of Rivne, where the commission of the Commissariat of Ukraine was located. Kuznetsov worked closely with enemy officers of special services and the Wehrmacht, as well as local officials. All mining information was transferred to the partisan detachment. One of the noteworthy feats of the Secret Agent of the USSR was captured by the courier of the Reichskisariat of Major Gahan, who transported a secret card in his portfolio. After the interrogation of Gahan and the study of the card, it turned out that in eight kilometers from the Ukrainian Vinnitsa, a holker for Hitler was built.
In November 1943, Kuznetsov managed to organize the abduction of the German Major General M. Ilgen, who was sent in exactly to destroy partisan compounds.
The last operation of the Siekers scout in this post was the elimination in November 1943 of the head of the legal department of the Rekhomissariat of Ukraine Obberfürera Alfreda Putin. After the interrogation of the pound, the brilliant intelligence officer managed to get information on the preparation of the kill of the "Big Three" chapters of the Tehran Conference, as well as information about the occurrence of the enemy in the Kursk arc. In January 1944, Kuznetsov was ordered together with the retreating fascist troops to go to Lviv to continue their sabotage activities. To help the Agent, Siebert, sent intelligence officers Jan Kaminsky and Ivan Belov. Under the leadership of Nikolai Kuznetsov, several occupiers were destroyed in Lviv, for example, the head of the Office of the Government of Heinrich Schneider and Otto Bauer.

From the first days of the occupation of the boys and girls began to decisively act, the secret organization "Young Avengers" was created. The guys were fighting the fascist invaders. They were blown up by the waterproof, which was delayed to the front ten fascist echelons. Taking the opponent, "Avengers" destroyed bridges and highways, blew up a local power plant, burned the plant. Getting information about the actions of the Germans, they immediately passed their partisans.
Zina tailor ordered more and more complex tasks. For one of them, the girl managed to get a job in German dining room. Having worked there a little, it carried out an effective operation - poisoned food for German soldiers. More than 100 fascists suffered from her lunch. The Germans began to blame Zin. Wanting to prove his innocence, the girl tried poisoned soup and only miraculously remained alive.

Zina Portnova

In 1943, traitors appeared, who revealed secret information and issued our guys with the fascists. Many were arrested and shot. Then the command of the partisan squad instructed the tailor to establish a connection with those who remained alive. The fascists grabbed the young partisan when she returned from the task. Zina was terribly tortured. But the response to the enemy was only her silence, contempt and hatred. Interrogations did not stop.
"Gestapovets went to the window. And Zina, tightening to the table, grabbed the gun. Obviously catching the rustle, the officer is impellent turned around, but the weapon was already in her hand. She pressed the trigger. Shot for some reason I did not hear. Only saw the German, clutching his chest with his hands, fell on the floor, and the second, who was sitting behind the sideline, jumped out of the chair and hurriedly fell off the Coburur of the revolver. She sent a gun and on him. Again, almost not aiming, the trigger pressed. Runing to the exit, Zina rushed the door to himself, jumped into the next room and from there to the porch. There she almost focused on the clock. Switching out of the office of the commandation, Portnova swirl rushed down the path.
"Just run to the river," the girl thought. But the noise was heard from behind ... "Why don't they shoot?" Almost near the smooth of water. And behind the river Chernell Forest. She heard the sound of the automatic shooting, and spinningly pierced the leg. Zina fell on river sand. She also had enough strength, slightly raised, shoot ... She was shouted for himself the last bullet.
When the Germans ran at all closely, she decided that everything was over, and put the gun to his chest and pressed the trigger. But the shot did not follow: a mischief. The fascist hurt a gun out of her weakening hands. "
Zina was sent to prison. For more than a month, the Germans tried brutally, they wanted to betray her comrades. But giving an oath of loyalty to the Motherland, Zina kept her.
On the morning of January 13, 1944, a gray and blind girl brought to the execution. She walked, stumbling with bare feet, in the snow.
The girl withstood all torture. She truly loved our homeland and died for her, firmly believing in our victory.
Zinaida Portorova was posthumously awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union.

The Soviet people, realizing that the front needed their help, made all his efforts. Engineering thought simplified and improved production. Women who recently held their husbands, brothers and sons to the front, occupied their place behind the machine, mastering unfamiliar professions for themselves. "Everything for the front, everything for victory!". Children, old people and women gave all their strength, gave themselves to victory.

This is how the call of the collective farmers sounded in one of the regional newspapers: "... it is necessary to give an army and workers more bread, meat, milk, vegetables and agricultural raw materials for industry. We must pass, workers of state farms, along with the collective farm peasantry. " Only on these stricters can be judged as far as the rear workers were obsessed with thoughts of victory, and what sacrifices they were ready to go to bring this long-awaited day. Even getting a funeral, they did not stop working, knowing that it was the best way Revenge the hated fascists for the death of their relatives and loved ones.

On December 15, 1942, Ferapont Nick gave all his savings - 100 thousand rubles - to acquire an aircraft for the Red Army, and asked to transfer the plane to the pillar of the Stalingrad Front. In a letter, in the name of the Supreme Commander, he wrote that, having spent two sons to the front, he wants to make a contribution to the victory itself. Stalin gave the answer: "Thank you, Ferapont Petrovich, for your concern about the Red Army and her Air Forces. The Red Army will not forget that you have given all your savings on the construction of a combat aircraft. Accept my hello. " The initiative was given serious attention. The decision on who exactly will get a name of the aircraft, took the Military Council of the Stalingrad Front. The battle car was presented to one of the best - commander of the 31st Guards Fighter Aviamar Major Boris Nikolayevich Eremin. He played a role and the fact that Eremin and Golovat were countrymen.

The victory in the Great Patriotic War was mined in inhuman efforts, both front-line workers and the workers of the rear. And you need to remember. Today's generation should not forget their feat.
