CHILDREN OF WAR
Sparing no effort in the fire of war, Sparing no effort in the name of the Motherland, The children of the heroic country were real heroes! Robert Rozhdestvensky
The day of February 8 is dedicated to the memory of young boys and girls of all countries, those who fought and died for freedom, equality and happiness of people. Many of them died in the struggle. Many survived and met the Victorious Spring of 1945. Their names are different, but their fates are similar - everything they did, they did for the sake of liberating their country from the fascist invaders. Putting aside unread books and school textbooks, young patriots worked tirelessly in the factory workshops and on collective farm fields, inspired by one thought: “Everything is for the front, everything is for victory.”
February 8 is the Day of the Young Anti-Fascist Hero
Let's remember everyone by name, Let's remember with our hearts. It's not the dead who need this. We need this alive!

Participated in 27 combat operations. In total, he destroyed: 78 Germans, two railway and 12 highway bridges, two fodder warehouses and 10 vehicles with ammunition. Accompanied a convoy with food (250 carts) to besieged Leningrad.
.
Valya Kotik
From August 1943 he acted in a partisan detachment and was wounded twice. Participated in the explosion of 6 railway trains and a warehouse. On October 29, 1943, while on patrol, I noticed punitive forces about to launch a raid on the detachment. Having killed the officer, he raised the alarm, and the partisans managed to repulse the enemy.
Marat Kazei
Scout at the headquarters of a partisan brigade. He penetrated enemy garrisons and delivered valuable information to the command. Returning from reconnaissance and surrounded by Germans, he fought until the last bullet, and when only one grenade remained, he let the enemies get closer and blew them up.
Served on a ship. On board the ship, Borya gives the anti-aircraft gunners heavy clips of shells - one after another, without knowing fatigue, without knowing fear, and in the intervals between battles he helps the wounded and cares for them. Borya spent more than 2 heroic years at sea, on a warship, fighting the Nazis for the freedom of our Motherland.
Borya Kuleshin
Arkady Kamanin
The youngest pilot of World War II. One day the cockpit glass was broken by an enemy bullet. The pilot was blinded. Losing consciousness, he managed to hand over control to Arkady, and the boy landed the plane at his airfield. One day, from above, a young pilot saw our plane shot down by the Nazis. Under heavy mortar fire, Arkady landed, carried the pilot into his plane, took off and returned to his own.
Valya Zenkina
The Nazis forced Valya to get into the Brest Fortress in order to convey to its defenders the demand to surrender. Valya made her way into the fortress, talked about the atrocities of the Nazis, explained what weapons they had and their locations, and stayed to help our soldiers. During the day she bandaged the wounded, and at night she collected weapons from the recent battlefield and dragged them to the fortress. She fought bravely in a partisan detachment, along with adults
Volodya Kaznacheev
From the first days of the war, Volodya was enrolled in a group of demolitionists - miners of the partisan unit. With his participation, 15 enemy trains with military equipment and soldiers were derailed. Volodya also came close to death once: a bullet fired by a guard who noticed him hit him in the arm. Fragmentary information about the experienced bomber Kaznacheev reached the German command. The occupation authorities placed a bounty on his head, not even suspecting that their dangerous enemy was only fifteen years old.
Nadya Bogdanova
With the beginning of the war, she became a scout in a partisan detachment, and she was not yet ten years old. Pretending to be a beggar, she wandered among the Nazis, noticing and remembering everything, and brought the most valuable information to the detachment. She was executed twice by the Nazis, and for many years her military friends considered Nadya dead. And they even erected a monument to her! And only 15 years after the war, friends learned that their Nadya was alive!
VICTORY!!!
Take care of Russia, we cannot live without it. Take care of her so that she may forever be Our truth and strength, Our entire destiny. Take care of Russia - there is no other Russia!
Take care of Russia - there is no other Russia. Take care of its peace and quiet, This is the sky and the sun, this bread on the table And the dear window in a forgotten village...
CHILDREN - heroes of the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945)

On May 29, 1942, the Komsomol Central Committee addressed all pioneers with an appeal: along with their fathers and mothers, to work for the front.
The pioneers responded to this call by actively participating in all patriotic movements.
After the war, pioneers were included in the Book of Honor, mainly for academic success and socially useful activities.
And today, for our contemporaries, pioneer heroes are precisely the children who took part in hostilities. Total included in the Book of Honor of the Pioneer organization about five thousand young pioneers .
During the war, many pioneers had to take the place of their fathers and brothers who had gone to war - after school, the schoolchildren were faced with a labor front. For military services, tens of thousands of children and pioneers were awarded orders and medals. Many young participants in the war died in battle or were executed by the Germans.

Children of war Dedicated to all children of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945.
The children played and did not suspect that soon there would be only one word on their lips - war.
From the memoirs of Valentina Ivanovna Potaraiko: “I was 5–6 years old. We were evacuated from besieged Leningrad to the Perm region. They were driving through Ladoga, where we came under bombing...” “... A strong wind was blowing, sawdust covered her wounds, my mother moaned, and I cleaned her wounds and asked: “Mom, don’t die!” But she died. I was left alone." Valentina Ivanovna recalls: « When our train was bombed for the second time, we fell into the hands of the Germans. The Nazis lined up children separately and adults separately. No one cried out of horror; they looked at everything with glassy eyes. We clearly learned the lesson: if you cry, they will shoot you. So, before our eyes, they killed a little girl who was screaming non-stop.”
Fascist monsters shot at children for fun, to practice their accuracy.
Many children fought against fascism with arms in hand, becoming sons and daughters of regiments. Nikolai Panteleevich Kryzhkov recalls: “I wandered through the steppes during the winter, worked on the railroad, and so I got to Stalingrad... In the fall of 1942, soldiers of the 1095th Artillery Regiment sheltered me, fed me, washed me, and warmed me.” Nikolai Panteleevich was awarded the Order of the Patriotic War, 2nd degree, medals “For Military Merit”, “For the Capture of Koenigsberg”, and the commander’s gratitude for the capture of Sevastopol. The sons of the regiments - children of the war years - fought against the German occupiers along with adults. Marshal Bagramyan recalled that the courage, bravery of the teenagers, and their ingenuity in carrying out tasks amazed even old and experienced soldiers. Childhood was consumed by war, youth by post-war devastation and hunger. Valentina Ivanovna tells: - Two years - 1946-1947. I, an orphanage girl, didn’t know the taste of bread. The norm was: breakfast and dinner - 100 grams of bread, lunch - 200. But even these crumbs were always taken away by the stronger guys. Children from the orphanage stood in stores for hours and waited for the seller to give them a handful of bread crumbs that were left after slicing.”
Children of war - and it blows cold, Children of war - and it smells of hunger, Children of war - and their hair stands on end: There are gray hairs on children's bangs.
In Albert Likhanov’s story “The Last Cold”, the theme of deprivation and hunger, from which people lose their humanity, is horribly and eloquently described. It was these children who restored the destroyed economy during the war, at the age of 12 standing at machines in factories and factories, working on construction sites. Children's labor in the rear Guys worked for days in factories, standing at machines instead of brothers and fathers who had gone to the front: they made fuses for mines, fuses for hand grenades, smoke bombs, colored flares, and assembled gas masks. They worked in agriculture, growing vegetables for hospitals. The pioneers sewed underwear and tunics for the army, and knitted warm clothes for the front: mittens, socks, scarves. The guys helped the wounded in hospitals, wrote letters to their relatives under their dictation, staged plays, organized concerts, bringing a smile to war-weary adult men. According to well-known statistics, the Great Patriotic War claimed about 27 million lives of citizens of the Soviet Union. Of these, about 10 million are soldiers, the rest are old people, women, and children. But statistics are silent about how many children died during the Great Patriotic War, how many were injured and crippled. During the Great Patriotic War, hundreds of thousands of boys and girls went to military registration and enlistment offices, gained a year or two more, and went off to defend their Motherland; many died for it.

The guys collected rifles, cartridges, machine guns, and grenades left over from the battles, and then handed it all over to the partisans. We rescued wounded Red Army soldiers, helped organize underground escapes for our prisoners of war from German concentration camps. They set fire to German warehouses with food, equipment, uniforms, and fodder, and blew up railway cars and locomotives.
In Vladimir Bogomolov’s story “Ivan” you can read about the fate of a young intelligence officer.
Pioneer heroes Marat Kazei

Pioneer heroes
Tanya Savicheva
Together with other Leningrad children, Tanya emptied attics, carried sandbags and buckets of water there to put out lighters, and looked after the wounded.
One by one, the war took Tanya’s brothers and sisters, uncle, grandmother... mother...
Tanya died of exhaustion on the first of July forty-four...
Tanya Savicheva's diary appeared at the Nuremberg trials as one of the indictment documents against fascist criminals. Today it is exhibited in the Leningrad History Museum.
Pioneer heroes Seryozha Aleshkov Seryozha is the youngest defender of Stalingrad. He was only 6 years old. After the death of his mother, he became the son of the regiment. He brought food to the fighters, brought ammunition, sang songs, read poetry, and delivered mail in between battles. He was wounded in the leg and was taken to the hospital. Awarded the medal "For Military Merit". Pioneer heroes Zina Portnova During the war, Zina helped the underground. While working in a canteen for German officers, at the direction of the underground, she poisoned the food. She distributed leaflets among the population and conducted reconnaissance on instructions from the partisan detachment. In December 1943, the Germans arrested Zina on a tip from a traitor. During one of the interrogations, she grabbed a pistol from the table and shot three Nazis, tried to escape, but was captured. The Nazis brutally tortured the young underground worker and shot her in a prison in Polotsk. Zina Portnova was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. Pioneer heroes Olya Demesh 16-year-old Olya Demesh with her younger sister Lida at the Orsha station in Belarus, on instructions from the partisans, blew up fuel tanks. The Nazis promised land, a cow and 10 thousand marks for the head of the young partisan Olya Demesh. Her photographs were sent to all patrol services, police officers and secret agents.
The Germans managed to capture Olya’s mother and sister and shot them; but Olya remained elusive. She destroyed 20 German soldiers and officers, derailed 7 enemy trains, conducted reconnaissance, participated in the “rail war”, and in the destruction of German punitive units.
Pioneer heroes Volodya Dubinin 14-year-old Crimean Volodya Dubinin was the commander of a group of young scouts in the Starokarantinsky quarries in Kerch. A partisan detachment held the defense here for two months. Volodya and his comrades obtained information about the location, number and plans of the German troops. Volodya managed to get to the surface through very narrow holes and slip past enemy posts unnoticed. Having an excellent understanding of the layout of underground galleries, Volodya Dubinin volunteered to help the Red Army sappers in clearing the Starokarantinsky quarries. While neutralizing the territories, the sapper and Volodya died from a mine explosion. Lev Kassil wrote a book about the exploits of Volodya Dubinin - “Street of the Youngest Son”, on which a film of the same name was made. Children - prisoners of concentration camps More than 5 million children became prisoners in concentration camps, ghettos and other places of forced detention scattered throughout occupied Europe. They bore their cross - innocent of anything, deprived of the most joyful time - childhood. Overwork and illness, cold and hunger were the companions of children. They were mocked, they were subjected to medical experiments, their blood was pumped out to the last drop for the needs of the German army, and poisons were tested. Only one in ten survived. Drawings of children - prisoners of concentration campsChildren - prisoners of concentration camps “...Before the war, I lived in Ukraine. Two weeks after the start of the war there were already Germans in our city. Jews were sent to a concentration camp in the Vinnytsia region. ...The camp area was surrounded by wires carrying current. There were 70-80 people in each barracks. The only furnishings are semblances of beds knocked together from boards and straw (instead of pillows and sheets). ...We, four girls, decided to run away, but only the two of us managed to escape. We crawled for 6 days. They ate the leaves with water. The days were counted on fingers. We came across partisans..."
Children of war also live in our city. Listen to the story of Anna Mikhailovna Frenkel:
Monuments to children of war Monuments to children of war have been erected all over the world. In Voskresensk, on June 22, 2011, a monument to minor prisoners of fascism was also unveiled. In the center of the composition made of black granite is the figure of a child who stepped out of the dungeons of a fascist concentration camp. The memorial was created according to a sketch by artist Mikhail Shirokov. There are words carved on the monument that express all the bitterness and tears of those years:
We are all children of the past war With a difficult, bitter fate. And how many are there in this world who never came home? We remember the bunks, we remember the lashes, And at the stoves the death howl. We are children of fascist camps and our journey home was long.
Monuments to children of war In the miners' village of Lidice, 20 kilometers from Prague, a memorial was created to immortalize the children who were gassed by the Nazis in concentration camps in response to the political murder of their high-ranking official. Monuments to children of war To remember...
Our country has lived in peace for many years. For most of you, war is what you see on TV and computer screens. You play it, but for some children, war today is not a game, but a harsh reality...
