The platoon was made up of soldiers aged 18-20 and was commanded by a Junior Lieutenant no older than his men.
He recalls, "When we saw the German tanks we gave each other manly hugs and exchanged the words, "For Moscow, for the Motherland!" After the war a moving song was written about this platoon, "Near the village of Kryukovo a platoon perishes..." Soldier Voloshchenko was the only member of the platoon to survive.

Having been put in the mailbox of TPO No. 90 Taps-Riga on 7 Oct., it was reloaded at Valk, directed there to Pskov by the TPO No. 126, then to Ostrov where arrived on 8 Oct. The next day, i.e.

The fascists and the war were synonyms for me at the age of five, and I had some notion of the war without knowing that other wars took place in history.
Kryukovo is 41 kilometres away from Moscow, the scene of fierce fighting for the Russian capital.
When we moved to Moscow from our country house, the scenes of battles disappeared from my mind, but the fear of a secretly approaching war haunted me. The war was over in Kryukovo but did not allow me to fall asleep in Moscow.

The queue along the aisle to step off onto the platform after a long journey is always funereal.
We bought our elektrichka tickets at 7.30 and walked towards the 8.12 train with 'TVER' written on the side, until Kaisa noticed that on the departures board it was only scheduled to go as far as Kryukovo half an hour away.
