I miss my comrades, but they are no longer there. At the age of 97, ivan nikiferovich shulgay from the village of grivenskaya, krasnodar region, decided to take a big trip. The apples are washed and grated. During the great patriotic war , ivan nikifarovich served as a driver in leningrad. During the blockade, he took women and children from the besieged city. Ill remember, ill remember how i went to the reception, seeing how cars perished with the people, so ill remember, of course, to see the city, the inhabitants, whom he saved from starvation. Siege of leningrad, the most cruel page in history of the great patriotic war. It was hell, blood, screams, it was something terrible. 872 days. Surrounded by 2. 5 million people, including 5,000 children. Throughout the entire siege , leningraders were reminded that life goes on , the measured beat of a metronome coming from all radios, you are lying in this dark room, cold and not walls, you listen to how the metronome works, this is how the heart beat. Of a besieged city, here such a beating, the city is alive, the city is alive, we endured everything , we believed that the war would soon end. That terrible feeling of hunger is when you want to eat all the time, but there is nothing to eat. The siege of leningrad began. September 8, 1941. That day, the germans surrounded the city, cutting off all communications with the outside world. One of the first goals of the nazis was the destruction of food supplies. Reserves of sugar, cereals and flour were stored in wooden barns of badaev warehouses. On the seventh the bombing began. A hail fire started from the warehouses, and we only had enough bread in leningrad for 1415 days. Very soon bread becomes the only value. Exhausted people are ready to exchange the most expensive things for it. The end of september and november, the second half, began. The bread quota was reduced five times, the children were reduced to 125 g, and the military received 300 g. Due to constant bombing , electricity was cut off in the city, trams stopped right on the streets. Childrens sleds become a universal means of transportation, transport of the dead and the living. Yes, here is a childrens sled and two or two men came for dad, i went out to see him off. In this yard, elevenyearold Zoya Vinogradova saw her dad for the last time. He he worked at a factory and gave all his food to zoya and her two brothers. He didnt eat anything himself, and from exhaustion he couldnt even go to the childrens. Well, i went home, how did i, how did i get there, i dont remember that, but i came home, i came to my mother and told him that dad was at. She went around the apartments of leningrad residents and recorded cases of starvation. She only told me that starvation is the easiest thing. This is how a person without suffering, you know, moves away from migda. The most terrible winter months of the fortysecond year, up to 7,000 people died from exhaustion in day. They dont have time to bury the dead, a terrible siege term appears in leningrad diapers, just when a person died, they wrapped him in a sheet or a blanket, tied him up there and carried him out. Those who remain alive eat everything that is at least somehow edible, boil leather belts and boots, hunt pigeons for rats, here i remember, here was the table we had. In front of the windows , here we ate the cat, i also remember this moment, i once went out into the kitchen, this jelly made of glue, like an animal, i grabbed this plate, ate it and didnt think about anything more, their legs are swollen from hunger , their heads are dizzy, people do not get out of bed, the streets are empty, and only the radio reminds of life, there was a time when the radio. Was the interlocutor of leningraders, when there is no longer a telephone, there is no strength to go out, the radio whispers. In those difficult days, the most recognizable and dear to leningraders will be the voice of the poet olga bergolts. I will talk to you today, comrades and friend leningrads, about the light that shines above us, about our last joy. Ninetysevenyearold ivan shulga is again in the city, which he saw created, hungry, destroyed, in the city from which he saved thousands of people, the right greets him at the station, i remember how i traveled here all the time. The germans are rapidly advancing towards leningrad from the northwest. The rapid capture of the city is part of barbarossas plan, the goal of which is to disperse the forces of the soviet army and capture the largest cities of the country with lightning speed. Take. At any cost. Vladimir berchikov was supposed to go to tenth grade on september 1. But instead of school, he and his classmates went to defend their hometown on the banks of the izhora river, the last line of defense of leningrad. I was 17, 17, and we had guys who were 16 years old. Our life began with this, an independent life. At school at my parents house, thats how we left on july 18, that s all for me personally, already at the end of august, just 2 months after the start of the war, the first german tanks appeared on the horizon, the schoolchildren took up the fight, yura gopeev, was in this bomb, so he came out with an antitank grenade and exploded, he himself died and several machine gunners died. Having met desperate resistance, the fascists stopping the offensive, fearing even greater losses in street battles, hitler decides not to take the city by storm. On september 8, his troops cut off all communication routes with leningrad and began a blockade of the city. Somehow the blockade began, generally imperceptibly, there was little light and it was cold. Hitler hoped that without communication with the outside world, without food, the city would surrender within a few weeks; in order to quickly break the spirit of leningraders, the germans were constantly shelling and bombing. As soon as the bombing began, all the windows flew out, under our house simply didnt have any glass; they curtained the room, some with what, some with a carpet, some with a blanket. In the hospital where rosa dikterenko worked, this air raid coincided with a longawaited lunch, we were given peas in a bowl, each of us, and there was meat, and we were so tired and so wanted to eat, at this time there was an impact, the frame was flying, all the glass fell down in our bowl. i still wanted to eat with shaking hands, and i saw the meat, i put my hand in there in the bowl, they were already shouting urgently for everyone to go to a bomb shelter, we still didnt have dinner for our eightieth birthday the complete liberation of leningrad from the fascist blockade, the enemy is rushing to leningrad to make excuses burn, comrades, burn a tank from a bottle, luga rubesh, if even one german breaks through in your sector, even on. Tanks even on sticks on horseback, i will shoot, pulkovsky meridian, bread, i ruined the bread , i dont have the strength, maksimich, i cant get to the factory, leningrad metronome, breaking the blockade is not just a military operation, no, its our duty to leningrad, operation spark. i never wanted it like that. live as you want now, i want to live to see victory, the epic blockade, today is the first, i will not run away from the enemy, if necessary i will be able to die where i stand, romca productlar group, very frankly, after the bombing, mothers who lost their children spoke about their grief live on air. Comrades, ill say it myself, my children, gennaya tolya, were sitting at the table, drawing pictures, there was a terrible blow, glass fell , fragments flew into the room, my dear little girl was gone , my little one was wounded, my ear, arm and neck, all. And came running to my post and said mommy, genochka was killed. My friends, you understand my maternal grief, for the sake of the germans. When the air raid alert was announced , the siren sounded. This is the siren that sounded on the air. Attention, the area is under artillery fire, stop movement, the population take cover. Spare the studio was in the basement, during the rundown, we did not interrupt the broadcast, our announcers went downstairs to this studio and worked, comrade, we have had bitter days, we are facing unprecedented troubles, but we are not forgotten with you, we are not alone, and this is already victory, i saw how were the programs edited so that there was more, well, vivacity, there was some kind of need. This was not cheerfulness, but a desire to prove that we were alive, that leningrad was alive. One editor came, the program went through, he came out and immediately fell down, pale, they thought it was a heart attack, but it was an attack from hunger. During the blockade, out of 300 radio workers, 115 people died of hunger. How to evacuate people and organize the supply of food to the city. The leadership of leningrad was looking for a solution to these problems from the very first days of blockade. All roads are blocked. Air travel is not possible. The only way out is to bring provisions across lake ladazh. For barsh, piers are being hastily erected on the shore, you can see the remains of them in the water, they have already rotted, everything has collapsed, these are the remains of those mooring devices to which the ships came here to unload on the shore, but there are not enough hastily built berths, often bags of food have to be unloaded right in the water, under constant shelling, it was hell , we have to load. And we loaded, and they they fly lower, they shoot at us, and we hide our heads in flour, it is not possible to establish a regular supply of food to the city in ladoga, people fall dead from exhaustion right on the streets of leningrad. Autumn 1941, cold, no electricity, despite this, classes begin in schools. Hungry children sit at their desks, lessons last 25 minutes , neither children nor teachers can stand it any longer , homework is not given, many children do not even have the strength to walk home, cars drove around the city, collected dead people and took them to cemetery. I walked along the palakovi. About half a million victims of the siege are buried in the mass graves of the peskarevsky cemetery. There are no names on these tombstones. The water supply is turned off. Drinking water is becoming a luxury. Well, somewhere around there there were like a ditch, all frozen. And they scooped up water with something and poured it out to those standing on the childrens sleds, these from the buckets there, who what who, the pot with the sleds with these halfdead, as they say , a tenyearold child was dragging everything like this now i just even you know , its hard for me to even speak because i dont know how it could be. The soldiers of the leningrad front do not give up trying to break the blockade, and civilians do not stop working and living with the hope of their victory. We were given a bonus, sometimes half a liter of drying oil, this was a bonus, and we fried pieces of bread on this building oil. Not an artist , in the fortyfirst drawing saved him from despair, a twelveyearold boy alone in a cold apartment dreams of apples, which he has not seen since the very beginning of the blockade, he draws them, yes, this is it, this is exactly what it is , these are fantasies, this is fantasy i will be at war and some of these. Lie , the city leadership continues to look for ways to save people, lake ladazh remains the only hope, in the fortyfirst year the lada began to bite into ice, at the end of november groups of people walked around, took measurements of the ice, the first to go were the sleighs and horsedrawn carts, only then after 3 4 days after the sleigh passed, the car was already started. Thanks to these first deliveries, in december 1941 , the bread distribution rate was increased by 75 g. Sometimes they began to issue cereals and even butter, so butter, please, sixth, ninth , eleventh butter, they gave out this small piece of butter, and my mother divided this piece into small squares and so. It was possible, in my opinion, to take 25 kg of everything per person. From here the trains left for lake ladash. Before loading into the carriages, everyone was given generous rations. There was a pot of millet porridge, bread, sugar, that is, it was a lot, everything was hot, tasty, but after this famine, when we saw it, we really wanted to eat it, but my grandmother knew that after the famine you cant eat too much, she gave us little by little , thats what she. Saved lives, but many who overate died right in the carriage , they were carried out near the railway track, they dug a hole there, they put all the corpses there, there were stops only at open field , they knock on the carriage , they shout, there are pipes, i think what kind of. They ask me for pipes, it turns out they knock and say, there are corpses, you need to take them out, throw them away, its very scary, very scary, the trains were arriving at the station borisova griva, here people transferred to lorries, trucks with open tops and set off on the road through the icy latoga. Ivan worked on one of these machines. Kifechulga, from this place his dangerous journey began, they picked up people and took them out, and thats how they cruised. 36 km on the ice, in the dark, under fire, it was a black cloud, you know, you couldnt even see the sky, and so in flight they started bombing. A car with ours , also leningraders, went under the ice nearby, and there were headlights, you could see it going, going, going, there was nowhere to hide on the open ice, well, it was scary when the germans attacked, in the garage of the museum of the road of life. The lorry that walked around ladoga during the days of the blockade has been preserved, just like this ivan shulga carried food to a hungry city and returned from there with people, here is my lorry, this was my life, i worked on it all the time, i liked it, it was obedient, of course i remember when i was young. I drove my own on it, how come, i like it, its been preserved, in the first months of the ice tracks operation several tens of thousands of people were able to get out of the city, how my mother held the vladinka. Just like that, so she became completely numb, and me too, as i was sitting crouched , they took me off the truck, brought me into this large room, there were a lot of leningraders, who all came through ladazhskoye too, and they said dont bring it, dont bring it to the heat, the vessels will break , because we were completely numb, they were all so exhausted, they were very exhausted. We are exhausted people, we just realized that we had finally reached the mainland, that all the horror, all this blockade, it all remained there, having brought people to the Southern Coast to village of kabona, cars were sent back, drivers worked around the clock, but sometimes due to severe snowstorms. Flights were cancelled. On one of these days, on ladoga, a song was born that every leningrader will soon know. Bogdanov arrives. Bogdanov, the signalman , came and said, so i composed a song, well, they immediately performed it right there, the song went into life, they needed a song that would help ladoga people overcome difficulties, the songs were sung by car drivers, traffic controllers, oh ladoga, dear ladoga, blizzards and storms, menacing wave. From monday after the program time. Due to air raids, there are constant interruptions in the supply of provisions to the besieged city. In january 1942, for 3 days no bread was given out at all. Thousands of children remain in the city, many of them are already orphans. In the empty ones. At home, vigilantes are looking for them, among whom are students from leningrad schools. Viktor dmitriev was then in fifth grade. We were directed to go door to door and find out where there were living people and where there were no living people. Every day i had to walk, it was very difficult to walk, when i came home, there were such pain that i just lay there. Soon victor himself will lose his mother, become seriously ill and end up in an orphanage. He will only have a few old photographs as a keepsake for his family. Here is my mother, these are all mine, of all those who are here in the photograph, those who are not there, only i am alive, the only one left. The blockade made more than 30,000 children orphans. 85 orphanages are being urgently opened in the city. The command of the leningrad front is helping them with food and medicine. Of course, they knew about thousands of children who had lost their parents on the radio. Childrens Editorial Staff read for them on the air of fairy tales, the voice of Maria Petrova lulled the little prisoners of the besieged city. im going with a whole retinue, said the darning needle, pulling a long thread behind her, only without a knot, when she told these amazing tales, we all sat and listened, at that moment people were being buried, evacuated pupils after the war. Orphanages will be looking for each other throughout the union. In january 1942, the soviet command decided to launch the first largescale operation to break the blockade of leningrad. Compound the Second Shock Army managed to enter the depths of the wehrmacht defense at a distance of up to 70 km. Formations of the leningrad front made their way towards them from the north from the northeast. And at some point, the troops of the two fronts were separated by everything. 40 km, but already in february the soviet troops were bogged down in battles, the germans were desperately defending themselves, and in early march, as the weather warmed up, the fastas launched a counteroffensive and took a Second Shock Army in encirclement. Leningrad was never liberated. But people dont give up. With the arrival of spring, all free plots of land in the city are sown vegetable seeds. Where there was empty space, even a piece of lawn, there were vegetable gardens everywhere. And this garden, along the admiralty, there were continuous vegetable gardens, but mostly cabbage was planted. Having learned that life is Getting Better in the besieged city, the fastas again begin largescale shelling and bombing. For august 1942 , the german command planned a new assault on leningrad. Meanwhile , preparations are underway for a unique event in leningrad. For the first time in world history, in a besieged the city is planning the premiere of a symphony concert. Rare footage of the siege chronicle. September 41, the famous composer dmitry shostakovich, while in a besieged city, writes the seventh symphony, which will later be called the leningrad symphony. Seventh symphony, he once predicted war for her and predicted victory. Shastakovich is soon evacuated to kuibyshev. There he will finish his symphony. The leadership of leningrad decides not only to perform it by the philharmonic, but to broadcast the concert on the radio to the whole world. We are alive, we can, we will protect, we will win, you know, heres what we need to do Something Like this for a person in order to breathe energy into him. The only one remaining in the leningrad orchestra ka
