How many heroes lay down with their chests on the embrasure. Sailors and other heroes who covered the embrasure Covered the enemy bunker with their chest

Everyone knows the 19-year-old boy, submachine gunner of the Siberian Volunteer Rifle Corps of the 22nd Army of the Kalinin Front, Alexander Matrosov. On February 27, 1943, he blocked the embrasure of a German bunker with his chest. But there were dozens of others whose names are known to only a few.

Rimma in love

17-year-old partisan Rimma Shershneva also gave her life to save her comrades. This happened on December 5, 1942. The partisans operated in the Polesie region. While performing a combat mission, they were fired upon from a camouflaged German bunker.

Rimma was too young, so she was not taken to the front. They gave in after persistent requests to the Komsomol Central Committee, where the girl wrote with a request to send her to the front line. Rimma was sent to a partisan school, where she learned to shoot perfectly from our and captured weapons, mastered the art of sappers, and learned to jump with a parachute. Together with a detachment of the same young and brave guys, Komsomol member Shershneva was thrown behind enemy lines. Friends recalled that Rimma was the most optimistic, often sang and encouraged everyone.

During the fatal attack, many Red Army soldiers were killed. The German bunker had all-round visibility and fired almost non-stop. Then Rimma decided to silence him at the cost of her life.

More than a dozen bullets hit her, but the girl lived another nine days. She kept asking if the commander was alive. They say she was in love with him.

Gardener foreman

Hunan Avetisyan was a foreman of gardeners when he went to war. He died near Novorossiysk in September 1943. Senior Sergeant Avetisyan served as an assistant platoon commander of the 1st Infantry Company of the 390th Infantry Regiment.

The division received orders to break through the enemy's defenses on Mount Dolgaya. During the artillery preparation, several fascist firing points were not suppressed. Unan had already been to this mountain, went with his comrades on reconnaissance, so he quickly moved towards the enemy bunker. Our soldiers managed to throw grenades at it, but then they started shooting from another one. Three close comrades of Avetisyan died before his eyes. He was also wounded; he no longer had the strength to throw the grenade. And then Unan decided to close the embrasure with his chest. The machine gun fell silent. The combat mission was completed.

Peasant son

Yakov Paderin was born in 1901 into a peasant family, but he did not have to engage in peaceful labor for long. Yakov fought in the Civil War, then participated in the creation of collective farms. During the Great Patriotic War he served as an infantryman and was known as a brave soldier.

Paderin accomplished his feat during the capture of the small village of Ryabinikha in the Tver region. Our troops suffered heavy losses. It was winter, Yakov was wearing a camouflage suit. He got close to the machine gun, which did not allow our soldiers to develop their offensive. However, when Paderin prepared to destroy the firing point, it turned out that he had no ammunition left. There was only one way out. Yakov rushed at the machine gun and silenced it for a while.

Service technician

Abram Levin was born in 1918 in Kyiv in the family of a driver and a dressmaker. But he graduated from school and an auto mechanic technical school in Moscow. On July 3, 1941, immediately after college, Abram began working as a service technician at the Likhachev Moscow Automobile Plant. He had a reservation, but on September 1, Levin abandoned it and volunteered for the front. He fought in the 158th Rifle Division, which in February 1942, after a 100-kilometer march, entered the battle near Rzhev. Abram covered the machine gun embrasure with his chest in the battle for the village of Zhiranovo.

16-year-old partisan

Mikhail Belush died at the age of 16. He was a Belarusian partisan. Moreover, behind him were eight trains of Germans that were derailed. The guy’s last fight was in the village of Kupisk, Novogrudok district. The partisans from the “October” detachment were advancing, but their actions were complicated by the presence of two bunkers among the Nazis. Mikhail showed miracles of dexterity and heroism. He destroyed one bunker with a bunch of grenades, but the other had to be covered with his own body.

The boy's body was buried with all honors. After the war, he was reburied in a mass grave in the Korelichi region.

Caretaker and photographer

A native of the Kazakh village of Makinka, Nikita Golovnya was a jack of all trades. After serving in the army, he worked at a local school. First as a military commander, then as a supply manager. Before the war, Nikita got married and became interested in photography. He set up something like a circle in the village and taught this to children. Golovnya also played the button accordion beautifully and sang songs.

In July 1941, Nikita and his wife went to the front. In the very first months, Golovnya received two serious injuries, after which he was treated for a long time in the hospital.

Nikita died near Rzhev, and managed to accomplish two feats in one day. First, he shielded the commander from an enemy bullet, and then, being wounded, he neutralized a German bunker, covering it with his body.

It’s amazing how many heroes there were who gave their lives without hesitation: Alexander Pankratov, Cholponbai Tuleberdiev, Pyotr Gutchenko, Alexander Pokalchuk, Nikolai Serdyukov, Vladimir Ermak, Gazinur Gafiatullin, Alexander Volkov, Alexander Tipanov, Minnigali Gubaidullin, Tuichi Erdzhigitov, Dmitry Ushkov.. These were people of different ages and nationalities, professions and hobbies. They had one thing in common - love for the Motherland.

There were many more heroes

Alexander Matrosov was the 59th person to accomplish such a feat. The first was Alexander Pankratov Jr., political instructor of a tank company of the 28th Tank Division, who covered an enemy machine gun with his body on August 24, 1941 and received the title of Hero of the Soviet Union posthumously. At that time, defensive battles were taking place near Novgorod, and the Kirillov Monastery, which stood separately on the right bank of the Maly Volkhovets River, became a bridgehead. The Nazis settled in it, behind high walls. Alexander's regiment launched an attack on the monastery. However, the Germans were ready for this. The tank company commander, Lieutenant Platonov, was killed and the attack failed. Pankratov managed to crawl to the enemy machine gun. He threw several grenades at the firing point, but the attempt was unsuccessful. Then the political instructor took a desperate step... The company managed to break into the Kirillov Monastery and capture it.

“In total, during the years of the Great Patriotic War, 464 people closed the embrasure with their bodies. Five survived. Among those who accomplished this feat are 16 Belarusians. The first on the list is Alexey Vashchenko, a native of the village of Oskoto, Gorodok district, Vitebsk region,” said historian Boris Dolgotovich. The machine gunner of the 272nd Infantry Regiment accomplished his desperate feat on September 5, 1942. Then his regiment and one hundred cadets of the Krasnodar Military School held the defense in Stalingrad itself. When the enemy went on the offensive at six o'clock, a decision was made to launch a counterattack. A company of machine gunners attacked the enemy from the flank, but was forced to lie down under machine-gun fire. Vashchenko got close to the machine gun nest, tried to destroy the machine gunner with a grenade, but failed: he was seriously wounded by the burst. Then, overcoming the pain, he stood up with an exclamation: “For the Motherland! For Stalingrad!” and rushed to the embrasure. He was awarded the Order of Lenin (posthumously). The award sheet says: “...I closed the bunker embrasure with my body, making it possible to develop the success of the attack. Through personal self-sacrifice for the Motherland he showed his devotion and contempt for death. He died a brave death in front of his comrades, inspiring the soldiers with fearlessness and devotion to the Motherland.” One of the streets of the city of Volgograd was named in honor of our fellow countryman.

A month later, Nikolai Averyanov, a rifleman of the 7th company of the 406th rifle regiment of the 124th rifle division of the 21st army of the Don Front, did the same thing in a battle with units of the 3rd Romanian army on the southern bank of the Don near the Khovansky farm. And on December 10 of the same year, near the village of Kurinskaya, Krasnodar Territory, our fellow countryman, Hero of the Soviet Union Nikolai Novitsky, heroically died, Boris Dmitrievich said: “In the battles for Belarus, Matrosov’s heroic feat was repeated by 24 Red Army soldiers. And, by the way, I don’t know of a single example of Hitler’s soldiers doing the same.”

The expression “chest on the embrasure” in the Russian language has long become familiar and is often used in a figurative sense. It appeared after it became known about the feat of a private in the Red Army Alexandra Matrosova. During a decisive battle, a 19-year-old guy covered the embrasure of a German bunker with his chest. Matrosov's feat became textbook in the Soviet Union, however, according to historians, during the war years about 400 people closed bunkers with their own bodies, and some of them managed to survive after dozens of wounds received.

Alexander Morozov died on the battlefield on February 27, 1943, however, Soviet historians considered it ideologically correct to date the feat to February 23. In recent years, there has been a lot of debate on the topic of “was there a feat?” and whether Sailors really covered the embrasure with his chest. According to some versions, he stood up to throw a grenade at the bunker, and at that moment was shot by machine gun fire. Be that as it may, the fact remains: intentionally or not, the feat was accomplished, and the fighter died heroically on the battlefield.

Leonty Kondratyev

Today, historians name hundreds of names of other fighters who repeated this feat on different fronts and in different years. And, more importantly, they managed to survive in an unequal battle. Back on October 30, 1942, during a battle with the Nazi invaders on the outskirts of Tuapse, an assistant platoon commander, foreman, rushed into the embrasure with his chest Leonty Kondratyev. Incredibly, the soldier was able to survive after his injuries; he was treated in military hospitals for four months and was able to return to the front after a while. True, fate decreed that already in April 1943 he died in another battle.

Georgy Maisuradze

On October 10, 1943, fierce battles took place near the Belarusian village of Glushets. The private covered the firing point with his own body Georgy Maisuradze. After a long rehabilitation, the hero never returned to duty and was demobilized for medical reasons. George returned to his homeland in Georgia, he lived for another 22 years.

Stepan Kochnev

On New Year's Eve 1943, a German bunker neutralized the platoon commander Stepan Kochnev. The battle took place near the Ukrainian village of Novaya Ekaterinivka. His comrades considered the hero killed, and he was presented with a posthumous award. In fact, Kochnev was captured by the Germans and remained in concentration camps in Poland until April 1945. After everything he had experienced, Stepan returned to peaceful life and went to Chelyabinsk, where he worked as an accountant. The wounds received made themselves felt, the hero died in 1966.

Alexander Udodov

A heroic feat was also accomplished during the storming of Sevastopol. A private rushed into the embrasure Alexander Udodov. The fighter was incredibly lucky: in the hospital, the doctors did the impossible and brought him back to life. The recovery was long, there was exactly a year left until victory. Due to his injuries, Alexander was no longer able to return to the front; however, having been demobilized, he came to his native Donetsk, where he worked in a mine for a long time. Alexander Udodov died in 1985.

Vladimir Maiborsky

Sergeant Major Vladimir Maiborsky repeated Matrosov's feat on July 13, 1944. Before this decisive battle, the fighter had already been in the ranks of the Red Army, and in the militia, and in Poland in a concentration camp (from which he escaped three times), and in the ranks of the partisans. Having rushed to the bunker, he received numerous wounds, but the doctors managed to cure him. Rehabilitation took almost a year. After being discharged from the army due to disability, Vladimir became chairman of the village council and lived until 1987.

Additions to the list:

1. Guests of the site (guest book for 08/01/03) indicated a resource on the Internet, the information of which we provide below:

[From materials prepared by a veteran of the 80th Lyuban Order of Kutuzov, 2nd degree rifle division (1st Guards Division of the People's Militia of Leningrad) A.M. Svintsov.]

In the regional book of memory of the city of Kemerovo, we came across the familiar surname of our fellow soldier without indicating the place of death and indicating the military rank - a private - this is Vasily Petrovich Ketov, who on December 7, 1942 performed an immortal feat - he closed the embrasure of an enemy bunker with his body.

On December 7, 1942, according to the order of the commander of the 8th Army, General F.N. Starikov four reconnaissance groups of the 80th SD. (two from the 153rd Infantry Regiment, one from the 218th Infantry Regiment, and one from the 100th Separate Divisional Reconnaissance Company) in the Gaitolovo - Tortolovo zone they carried out reconnaissance in force with the task of capturing control prisoners from the combat outpost at any cost 1st Infantry Division (presumably) of the enemy.

After a 35-minute artillery barrage and a volley of Katyusha rockets, our groups went forward. This is what the divisional newspaper “Into the Fight for the Motherland” wrote No. 306 dated December 11, 1942 under the heading “A sense of duty is stronger than death”:

“When heroes die on the battlefield, people say, winged glory flies from the military banner and invisibly forms a guard of honor at the head of the dead... During one of the recent battles with the enemy, a group of fighters crawled on their bellies to the wire barriers and stood up to rush at the enemy. Without knowing fear, the Soviet soldiers had already walked part of the way when a machine gun from an enemy bunker forced them to lie down.

Corporal Ketov was in front. He threw several grenades, but the enemy’s machine gun continued to work. Then the brave corporal rushed to the bunker and closed the embrasure with his body. The lagging fighters pulled up. "Forward, for the Motherland!" - shouted junior lieutenant Zholnin and, despite his mortal wound, rushed forward, dragging the soldiers with him.

And when the slain hero fell, his place was taken by ml. Sergeant Komsomol member Comrade Lyutikov. This is how the brave sons of the Motherland died, our dear, beloved brothers in arms - Corporal Ketov and Jr. Lieutenant Zholnin. They only walked forward a few tens of meters. But, like true heroes, knights of the country, they gave their lives, like 28 heroes - Panfilov’s men, like the Soviet pilot Gastello, like the partisan Liza Chaikina.

Corporal Ketov and Jr. Lieutenant Zholnin knew why they were going into battle. They saw death in front of them, but did not cower in front of its cold breath. They loved life, but were not afraid of death, they despised it. Love for the Motherland and hatred for the vile enemy defeated death. The immortal exploits of heroes will forever go down in history! Their children and grandchildren will be proud of them, their memory will be honored by the country! Soviet soldiers do not cry over the lifeless bodies of even their dearest brothers. With the image of heroes before their eyes, they go into battle for the cause for which the best people gave their lives.

Forward - towards the enemy, Soviet warrior! With you in battle are 28 Panfilov heroes, with you the pilot Gastello, with you your mother, father, your beloved, with you the immortal corporal Ketov and Jr. Lieutenant Zholnin!

The body of Ketov V.P. was left on the battlefield. Corporal Ketov V.P. posthumously awarded the Order of the Patriotic War. Ketov Vasily Petrovich, born in 1921, native of Kemerovo, drafted on March 25, 1942 by the Kemerovo RVK, arrived at the unit on October 15, 1942 (TsAMO, f. 1228, op. 76611 S, d. 4, l. 5 ).

Later, in the divisional newspaper of the 80th SD "Into the Fight for the Motherland" No. 39 dated February 23, 1943, a poem by the poetess Vera Lyutova from Yaroslavl about the hero - intelligence officer, which she sent to the unit's newspaper, was published.

"Scout Ketov"

Falling like a burning rocket Above the earth is a star at midnight. That night Ketov went on reconnaissance, Fulfilling combat orders.

They crawled to the enemy trenches Daredevils are silent in the darkness. The silence was suddenly broken The German riflemen shouted.

By soldiers at enemy pickets The German machine gun fired up, And scout Ketov jumped up from the ground And he rushed forward with a grenade.

His comrades were threatened with death... Suddenly a rushing stream of lead As if someone's strength had been cut off, And the German machine gun fell silent.

At this moment, scout Ketov's body The embrasure of the bunker was obscured... The scout was selflessly brave, He loved his homeland more than his life.

Scout Ketov will live forever In memory of my comrades, And in the battles for the Motherland of the Soviets He walks invisibly among them.

Vera Lyutova

The place of the feat and death of Ketov V.P. - 2nd kilometer north of the 60th kilometer mark of the Mga - Volkhovstroy railway and 1.5 km north of the former village of Tortolovo in the Mginsky (now Kirovsky) district of the Leningrad region - a forest.

Everyone knows the 19-year-old boy, submachine gunner of the Siberian Volunteer Rifle Corps of the 22nd Army of the Kalinin Front, Alexander Matrosov. On February 27, 1943, he blocked the embrasure of a German bunker with his chest. But there were dozens of others whose names are known to only a few.

Rimma in love

It is believed that the 17-year-old partisan Rimma Shershneva became the only woman who gave her life to save her comrades. This happened on December 5, 1942. The partisans operated in the Polesie region. While performing a combat mission, they were fired upon by a camouflaged German bunker.

Rimma was too young, so she was not taken to the front. They gave in after persistent requests to the Komsomol Central Committee, where the girl wrote asking to be sent to the front line. Rimma was sent to a partisan school, where she learned to shoot perfectly from our and captured weapons, mastered the art of sappers, and learned to jump with a parachute. Together with a detachment of the same young and brave guys, Komsomol member Shershneva was thrown behind enemy lines. Friends recalled that Rimma was the most optimistic, often sang and encouraged everyone.

During the fatal attack, many Red Army soldiers were killed. The German bunker had all-round visibility and fired almost non-stop. Then Rimma decided to silence him at the cost of her life.

More than a dozen bullets hit her, but the girl lived another nine days. She kept asking if the commander was alive. They say she was in love with him.

Gardener foreman

Hunan Avetisyan was a foreman of gardeners when he went to war. A brave guy died near Novorossiysk in September 1943. Senior Sergeant Avetisyan served as an assistant platoon commander of the 1st Infantry Company of the 390th Infantry Regiment.

The division received an order to break through the enemy's defense on Mount Dolgaya. During the artillery preparation, several fascist firing points were not suppressed. Unan had already been to this mountain, went with his comrades on reconnaissance, so he quickly moved towards the enemy bunker. Our soldiers managed to throw grenades at it, but then they started shooting from another one. Three close comrades of Avetisyan died before his eyes. He was also wounded; he no longer had the strength to throw the grenade. And then Unan decided to close the embrasure with his chest. The machine gun fell silent. The combat mission was completed.

Peasant son

Yakov Paderin was born in 1901 into a peasant family, but he did not have to engage in peaceful labor for long. Yakov fought in the Civil War, then participated in the creation of collective farms. During the Great Patriotic War he served as an infantryman and was known as a brave and experienced soldier.

Paderin accomplished his feat during the capture of the small village of Ryabinikha in the Tver region. Our troops suffered heavy losses. It was winter, Yakov was wearing a camouflage suit. He got close to the machine gun, which did not allow our soldiers to develop their offensive. However, when Paderin prepared to destroy the firing point, it turned out that he had no ammunition left. There was only one way out. Yakov rushed at the machine gun with his bare hands and silenced it for a while. This was enough for his comrades to arrive and finish off the fascist.

Service technician

Abram Levin born in 1918 in Kyiv in the family of a driver and a dressmaker. But he graduated from school and an auto-mechanical technical school in Moscow. On July 3, 1941, immediately after college, Abram began working as a service technician at the Moscow Likhachev Automobile Plant. He had a reservation, but on September 1, Levin abandoned it and volunteered for the front. He fought in the 158th Rifle Division, which in February 1942, after a 100-kilometer march, entered the battle near Rzhev. Abram covered the machine gun embrasure with his chest in the battle for the village of Zhiranovo.

16-year-old partisan

Mikhail Belush died at the age of 16. There is very little information about the teenage hero. It is known that Mikhail was a Belarusian partisan. Moreover, behind him were eight trains of Germans that were derailed.

Belush’s last fight took place in the village of Kupisk, Novogrudok district. The partisans from the “October” detachment were advancing, but their actions were complicated by the presence of two bunkers among the Nazis. Mikhail showed miracles of dexterity and heroism. He destroyed one bunker with a bunch of grenades, but the other had to be covered with his own body.

The boy's body was buried with all honors. After the war, he was reburied in a mass grave in the Korelichi region.

Caretaker and photographer

A native of the Kazakh village of Makinka Nikita Golovnya was a jack of all trades. After serving in the army, he worked at a local school. At first - as a military commander, then - as a supply manager. Before the war, Nikita got married and became interested in photography. He set up something like a circle in the village and taught this to children. Golovnya also played the button accordion beautifully and sang songs.

In July 1941, Nikita and his wife went to the front. In the very first months, Golovnya received two serious injuries, after which he spent a long time in the hospital.

Nikita died near Rzhev, and managed to accomplish two feats in one day. First, he shielded the commander from an enemy bullet, and then, being wounded, he neutralized a German bunker, covering it with his body.

It’s amazing how many heroes there were who gave their lives without hesitation. Alexander Pankratov, Cholponbay Tuleberdiev, Pyotr Gutchenko, Alexander Pokalchuk, Nikolay Serdyukov, Vladimir Ermak, Gazinur Gafiatullin, Alexander Volkov, Alexander Tipanov, Minnigali Gubaidullin, Tuichi Erdzhigitov, Dmitry Ushkov... These were people of different ages and nationalities, professions and hobbies. One thing united them - love for the Motherland.
