How many heroes of the Soviet Union from Buryatia. Buryat heroes of our time - what are they? Who are they: heroes of the ussr and heroes of russia

  • 07.07.2020

This year, a brave native of the Republic of Buryatia, a hero-border guard, a man with outstanding military abilities, Garmaev Garmazhap Ayurovich, could celebrate his centenary.

Back in 1916, in a family of cattle breeders from the village of Verkhniy Torey, Dzhidinsky district of the Republic of Buryatia, the boy Garmazhap was born, who was destined to be tested by two wars: the Winter (Soviet-Finnish) and the Great Patriotic War.

At the age of 21, the future Hero was called up for military service in the workers' and peasants' Red Army, in the 12th Cavalry Regiment of the Buryat Red Banner 50th Cavalry Brigade. In May and June 1938, over 400 fighters of the brigade, including Garmaev G.A., were redeployed to the Leningrad Military District, where they later took part in the war with Finland from November 1939 to March 1940.

From the first days of the war Garmaev G.A. was at the forefront, participated in the breakthrough of the Mannerheim Line.

Oreshkin V.F., the commander of the platoon in which Garmaev G.A. fought, recalled the events of one of the winter days of 1940: “Garmazhap with the squad was given the task of reconnoitering the positions of the enemy. Not having time to move away from our forces for a considerable distance, a detachment of fighters came under fire from the Finnish machine-gun crew. Garmaev personally covered the retreat of his comrades. Only when the last of the fighters was safe did Garmazhap leave the position. At the same time, our platoon was attacked by superior enemy forces. In the ensuing firefight, I was badly wounded by one of the attackers. Garmaev, despite the persuasion, refused to leave me on the battlefield and carried me all the way through the frosty night, either on his back or in his arms, to the location of the regiment.

In the future, on the fronts of the bloody Soviet- Finnish war Garmaev G.A. saved more than one life. Along with this, there were successful captures of important "languages", and the capture of artillery crews, and the blowing up of Finnish armories, and other military heroic deeds.

Soon the whole front started talking about the brave Buryat warrior. And on one of the warm April days of 1940, the village of Verkhny Torey received a telegram from the Military Council of the Leningrad Military District congratulating relatives and fellow villagers on conferring the title of Hero of the Soviet Union to Garmazhap Ayurovich Garmaev. Garmaev himself learned about such an important event in his life while being treated at the Leningrad hospital.

After the end of the fighting at the end of 1940, foreman Garmaev G.A. returned to his small homeland and, on the recommendation of party organs, entered the service in the Dzhidinsky district police department.

When the Great Patriotic War began, Garmazhap Ayurovich repeatedly and in vain applied with requests to send him to the front. And only on February 19, 1942, thanks to the intervention of the Chairman of the Presidium Supreme Council USSR Kalinina M.I., Dzhida district military registration and enlistment office Garmaev G.A. drafted into the Army and sent to the Nizhneudinsk cavalry military school.

After graduating from college, the border biography of Garmaev G.A. began. With the rank of lieutenant, he arrived to serve in the Kyakhta border detachment, and then was sent to the front.

In May-June 1944, Garmazhap Ayurovich led a checkpoint located on the Soviet-Polish border on the Moscow-Warsaw highway, near the legendary Brest Fortress.

In battles with detachments of Belarusian nationalists, he was seriously wounded. On July 16, 1945, at the age of only 29, he died in a hospital and was buried near the walls of the legendary Brest Fortress.

The bright memory of the hero of the Soviet Union Garmazhap Ayurovich Garmaev is cherished and honored in different places. By a decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR dated October 22, 1970, the Kyakhta frontier outpost was named after the Hero. In the name of G.A. Garmaev named Border outposts in the city of Kyakhta and Brest.

List of Heroes of the Soviet Union fromBuryatia

  1. Tales about heroes - 1 group of students (Anya, Nadia, Chimita)

Hero of the Soviet Union Chertenkov Ivan Matveyevich.

  • Was born Ivan Matveevich Chertenkovin the Kursk region. As a young man, he came to Buryatia and began to work on the construction of a pedagogical institute. Later he worked for railway station and railway station in Ulan-Ude.
    In January 1942 he was drafted into the Red Army and sent to the Amur Flotilla. But soon Ivan Chertenkov changed his pea jacket and peakless cap for a gray soldier's overcoat. The sailor's request to be sent to the front was granted.
    In the battles for Kharkov, as part of the legendary platoon of Shironin, Ivan Chertenkov, a private of the 8th rifle company of the 78th rifle regiment of the 25th Guards Order of the Red Banner Rifle Division, participated.
    This happened in March 1943. Twenty-five guards went into battle against an enemy column of 25 tanks and 15 armored vehicles. Three and a half hours lasted an unequal duel. The attacks of the Nazis followed one after another. In the third attack, the Germans sent twenty tanks. The fight at the crossing was especially brutal. Everyone who could only hold a weapon stood up in the ranks. Guardsmen stood to death. The German attack was repulsed.
  • In this unequal battle, Ivan Chertenkov died a hero's death. The courageous feat of the guards inspired the Soviet and Czechoslovak soldiers, who fought hand in hand in the Kharkov region.By the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of May 18, 1943, I.M. Chertenkov was posthumously awardedtitle of Hero of the Soviet Union . One of the streets of the city of Ulan-Ude is named after him.

2 group of students (Sonya, Nastya, Alina) Hero of the Soviet Union Rinchino Bazar Rinchinovich

  • Rinchino Bazar Rinchinovic was born into a large family.
    There were four brothers. They all went to defend their homeland. But the fate of the youngest, Bazaar, was different. Working as a teacher at Zutkuleyskaya elementary school, at the beginning of 1943 he
    volunteer went to the front.
    There were heavy fierce battles for the liberation of Soviet Ukraine from the Nazi invaders. It was here that the Rinchino Bazar came to fight. He received his first baptism of fire not far from Kyiv. The offensive of the Soviet troops was being prepared. It was required to get "language". Rinchino went on a combat mission with Private Fedorov. But it so happened that two were against fifty, and this is where the courage and resourcefulness of Soviet intelligence officers showed up. One after another, grenades flew into the thick of the Germans. It was so unexpected that 23 of them who remained alive raised their hands.
  • By the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR dated January 10, 1944, for the exemplary performance of the combat missions of the command on the front of the fight against the German invaders and the courage and heroism shown by Rinchino, Bazar Rinchinovich was awarded the titleHero of the Soviet Union.


5. Watching a video - the years of the war. (4 minutes).Children's performances are discussions about the war, about inhumanity, about their great-grandfathers or great-grandmothers.

Homework.

Each student in the class receives a task - to prepare a presentation about one Hero.


MY GRANDFATHER IS A GUARD LIEUTENANT OF THE GREAT VICTORY “The hero is the one who died smartly and bravely, bringing the hour of Victory closer. But twice the hero is the one who managed to defeat the enemy and remained alive. Vasily Ivanovich Chuikov, Marshal of the Great Patriotic War, twice Hero of the Soviet Union As you know (this is an eternal axiom!), the memory of the Great Patriotic War has become our moral memory, returning us to the heroism and courage of the valiant Soviet people. It is she who does not allow us to fall below the moral mark that marked those bitter and heroic years. This memory continues to live sacredly and relentlessly in our hearts. After all, witnesses and participants Great Victory are our relatives. Every Soviet family (both Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, etc.) has its own little history of the war. I also reverently keep the front-line family chronicle. And I say with pride: my own grandfathers made a worthy contribution to the defeat of fascism. My essay (like hundreds of thousands of similar stories) is a link between generations. We urgently need such a sacred thread so that we all know, remember and be proud of our ancestors - Defenders of the Fatherland, Heroes of the Great Patriotic War. It is a pity that almost all of them have already passed away. My heroic grandfathers are also in heaven... My paternal grandfather, Honorary Railway Worker of the USSR Pavel Mikhailovich Butov, a descendant of the Kuban Cossacks, lived and worked all his life at the Darkokh railway station near the town of Beslan in the North Ossetian Autonomous Republic. During the war years, Pavel Mikhailovich delivered LEND-LISA military cargo (American military assistance) from the port of Murmansk to the front-line regions by rail. Grandfather said that their railway train was repeatedly bombed. And one transit railway station in 1942 was captured by the German advance detachment. Soviet railroad workers fought their way through the fascist chain - at full speed, firing back from small arms. Telling this story in the 1980s, the grandfather in a cold sweat whispered: "Thank God, we slipped through ...". It is probably significant that military service in 1988 - 1990. I was in the Railway Troops - as if continuing family traditions. I even wanted to become a railway officer, but did not pass the medical examination. My maternal grandfather is Ivan Kondratievich Petrenko, a Ukrainian, originally from the village of Semyanovka, in the Dubovyazovsky district of the Sumy region. Ukrainian lieutenant Ivan Petrenko, being a lieutenant of the Red Army, bravely fought against the fascist invaders; died (according to the official document - went missing) in the summer of 1942 somewhere on the Don, that is, in my native Cossack lands. I know almost nothing about my grandfather Ivan Kondratievich Petrenko... Hundreds of thousands of Soviet soldiers died in the Rostov region in May-August 1942, when the Nazis advanced on Stalingrad. How many fraternal graveyards on the Don - without names and without dates! In one of these graves lie the remains of my grandfather, Ukrainian Ivan Kondratievich Petrenko. He, like other fallen soldiers, at the cost of his life contributed to the weakening of the incredible fascist power. And this "dark force" was defeated near Stalingrad. The younger brother of Ivan Petrenko, Nikolai Kondratievich, also went to the front in the first days of the war. Competent, ideologically consistent Dubovyazovsky Komsomolets, born in 1914, after accelerated artillery courses, received the rank of lieutenant, fought in the guards artillery regiments. Guard Lieutenant Nikolai Petrenko survived the fiery crucibles of the war. He returned to his native Ukraine - all in medals and orders. Nikolai Kondratievich helped his niece (my mother) Maria to get on her feet. He was proud when my mother graduated from the Kharkov Coal Preparation Institute and began working in the mines of the Rostov Donbass. Grandfather often came to visit his grandchildren - Vladimir (that is, to me) and Juliet (my sister). Nikolai Kondratievich, like all front-line soldiers, spoke sparingly about the war. He only mentioned the names of the fronts on which he fought. In 1991, after the collapse of the USSR, we communicated less frequently. My grandfather lived in independent Ukraine, I lived in the Rostov region. Then, much belatedly, bitter news came: my grandfather had died ... A quarter of a century had passed since then. I accidentally discovered in the “open spaces” of the Internet the “Electronic Document Bank “The Feat of the People in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1942.” - the site "The feat of the people." This electronic resource of the Ministry of Defense of Russia published, among other things, the award lists of the Ukrainian Guard Lieutenant Nikolai Petrenko. My valiant grandfather ... So, I read the profile of the guards artillery officer Nikolai Kondratievich Petrenko; this document in the electronic bank of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has the corresponding code: TsAMO Archive (Central Archive of the Ministry of Defense), fund 33, inventory 686196, storage unit 644, record number: 22905075. The questionnaire says that Nikolai Petrenko was drafted into the Red Army on July 7, 1941. A technically literate twenty-seven-year-old Komsomol member almost immediately became a lieutenant; in the position of commander of an artillery park, he was enlisted in the artillery regiment of the 40th Army of the Southwestern Front. In modern warfare, artillery is a military god. The harder the fights and the longer war, the more the infantry, and indeed the entire army, relies on gunners. If the "gunners" did a good job, then it will be easier for the infantrymen to go on the offensive and there are chances to stay alive. Artillery crushes, infantry occupies. Nikolai Kondratievich commanded the artillery park. This is a unit engaged in the transport and storage of ammunition. In the summer - autumn of 1941, Nikolai Petrenko participated in the most difficult battles on the territory of his native Ukraine, defending the left bank of the Dnieper River. Then there were defensive battles in the Kursk and Voronezh regions. On December 20, 1941, during the Kursk-Oboyan offensive operation of the 40th Guards Army, Lieutenant Petrenko received a shrapnel wound near the village of Tim (Kursk Region). He was treated for a short time - already in January 1942, Nikolai Kondratievich returned to combat formation. Meanwhile, the 40th Army became part of the Bryansk Front. During 1942, my grandfather fought on the Oboyan-Kursk-Voronezh line. At these frontiers Soviet troops stopped the fascist hordes. In July 1942, the 40th Army became the strike force of the Voronezh Front. At the beginning of 1943, the Kharkov offensive. Nikolai Petrenko at this time receives the most honorable front-line award - the Order of the Red Star. The name itself testifies that this award is intended to crown military exploits, for the Red Star is the hallmark of Soviet soldiers. The corresponding award sheet has been published on the website "Feat of the People": TsAMO Archive, fund 33, inventory 682526, storage unit 1627, record number - 17851248. I am quoting the text of the award sheet (in acceptable minor literary processing without distorting archival material). “In January-February 1943, in battles with the German invaders, the lieutenant of the 76th Guards Artillery Regiment of the 40th Army, Nikolai Kondratievich Petrenko, showed courage and courage. During the offensive Comrade Petrenko continuously supplied his regiment with ammunition. Despite the difficult winter conditions , the non-stop movement of the artillery regiment behind the advancing infantry, the lack of an artillery fleet of five vehicles, the absence of trailers, the regiment never lacked ammunition. Comrade Petrenko showed resourcefulness, making his way along a snow-covered road behind a tractor column. So, using tractors, the artillery regiment continuously advanced. On January 31, 1943, the artillerymen took advantageous combat positions south of the Gorshechnoye railway station (Kursk region). The enemy fiercely attacked this strategically important settlement, bombarded the southern part of the railway station (where Soviet troops were located) and did not allow any of our vehicles to pass. By evening, the Germans managed to push back units of the 25th Guards Rifle Division. The gunners urgently needed to replenish the depleted supply of ammunition - otherwise the infantry would not be able to advance. Comrade Petrenko, despite the heavy bombardment, brought three vehicles with artillery shells to the firing positions of the 76th regiment - moreover, without loss. Having familiarized himself with the combat situation, comrade Petrenko did not wait for darkness and again left for ammunition. At the risk of his life, he again delivered shells to his comrades, which allowed the artillery regiment to suppress enemy positions with fire. In this battle (near the Gorshechnoye station), the 76th Guards Artillery Regiment destroyed 2 German infantry battalions, 2 mortar batteries, 4 heavy machine guns, 1 enemy artillery battery. The artillery regiment continued the offensive, providing fire cover for the 40th Army. In the battle near Kharkov on February 16, 1943, enemy bombers incessantly bombed the village of Russkaya Lozovaya, where the firing positions of the 76th artillery regiment were located. The Messerschmitts controlled the Kharkov-Belgorod road. In such difficult front-line conditions, Comrade Petrenko provided our batteries with ammunition in a timely manner. With fire support from the artillery of the 76th regiment, the Pyatikhatka station, the northern gate of the city of Kharkov, was occupied. Guard Lieutenant Petrenko is a brave, energetic commander. For the courage and courage shown, he is worthy of the Government award - the Order of the Red Star. Order of the Military Council of the 40th Army of the Voronezh Front No. 14 / N of August 8, 1943 read: “On behalf of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, for the exemplary performance of the combat missions of the Command on the front of the struggle against the German invaders and the valor and courage shown at the same time, award Order of the Red Star - Guards Lieutenant Petrenko Nikolai Kondratievich, commander of art. Park of the 76th Guards Army Artillery Regiment. After the battle for Kharkov, my grandfather, as part of the 40th Army of the Voronezh Front, liberated the “Ridnaya” Ukraine from the Nazis. The battles for Kyiv were especially fierce in the autumn of 1943. The Voronezh Front was renamed the 1st Ukrainian; it was headed by the legendary commanders of the Great Patriotic War: General of the Army N.F. Vatutin, Marshal of Victory G.K. Zhukov. And from May 1944 until the end of the war, the front was commanded by Marshal I.S. Konev. The 40th Army was directly led by a talented commander, Lieutenant General F.F. Zhmachenko. After the Korsun-Shevchenkovsky operation of 1944, as a result of which more than 10 enemy divisions were surrounded and destroyed, Guards Lieutenant Nikolai Petrenko received a kind of encouragement for selfless military work: he was accepted into the ranks Communist Party VKP-b. For veterans, this was the highest honor! At the end of 1944, units of the 1st Ukrainian Front reached the State Border of the USSR and began to liberate Poland. Oh, and the Ukrainian Petrenko fought on Polish soil! My grandfather showed incredible valor, freeing the Pole brothers from fascist slavery (it’s a pity that now the Polish “brothers” have forgotten the feat of the Soviet Liberator Warrior). Fought N.K. Petrenko in foreign regions as part of the 245th Mortar Proskurovsky Order of Bohdan Khmelnitsky Regiment of the 22nd Brigade of the 1st Ukrainian Front. Evidence of the heroism of Nikolai Kondratievich is the TsAMO Archive, fund 33, inventory 686196, storage unit 644, record number 22905075. Under this code, in the archive box of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the “Award sheet for the guards of lieutenant of the 245th mortar regiment Nikolai Kondratievich Petrenko” is stored. This document is posted on the Internet resource "Feat of the People". I will give the text of the Award list (in an acceptable minor literary processing without distorting the archival material). “Guards lieutenant of the 245th mortar regiment of the 22nd brigade Petrenko Nikolay Kondratievich in battles from 01/12/1945 to 01/22/1945 in the area of ​​​​the city of Pinchuv, Kielce province (Southern Poland, Swietokrzyskie voivodeship), being the commander of an artillery park, showed courage and courage in the delivery of ammunition to the firing positions of the unit. On the night of January 12, 1945, Comrade Petrenko delivered artillery shells under heavy enemy fire. The front line of the Germans is only 800 meters away. Despite the extremely difficult front-line conditions, all 35 vehicles with ammunition arrived without loss to the regimental artillerymen, which contributed to the successful breakthrough of the enemy defenses. During the battles for the city of Pinchuv, comrade Petrenko continued to deliver ammunition to firing positions in a timely manner - following the advancing regiment. On January 22, 1945, the enemy lingered in Pinchuv, furiously counterattacking our units. Despite the targeted shelling, comrade Petrenko delivered shells to the artillery regiment in one car, thereby our artillery suppressed the enemy’s fire crews. The fight was won. Politically literate, devoted to the cause of the Lenin-Stalin Party. He enjoys prestige among his subordinates. Worthy of the Government award - the Order of the Patriotic War II degree. The command of the 22nd brigade of the 1st Ukrainian Front, however, decided to re-award Lieutenant Petrenko's guards with the Order of the Red Star - Order of the 22nd brigade No. 03 / N of February 6, 1945. "Order of the Patriotic War", moreover, I degree, Nikolai Kondratievich will receive 40 years later - in accordance with the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of March 11, 1985. Award document No. 79, date of the award document - 04/06/1985, entry No. 1516898702 (the relevant information is posted on the website "Feat of the People"). After the liberation of Poland, N.K. Petrenko, as part of the 22nd Mortar Brigade of the 1st Ukrainian Front, participated in the crossing of the Oder River and the Battle of Berlin. He was awarded the medal "For the Capture of Berlin". Twice Commander of the Order of the Red Star, Guards Lieutenant Petrenko, fought all four years of the Second World War, met the Great Victory in the German capital - in the defeated lair of the Nazi beast. On June 10, 1945, the 1st Ukrainian Front was disbanded. The soldiers returned to their homeland. Nikolai Kondratievich also arrived in the "ridy" regions. He was greeted with incredible joy by his sister Anna, niece Maria (my mother) and numerous other relatives and fellow villagers. Valiant veteran of the Great Patriotic War N.K. Petrenko participated in the restoration of the Ukrainian economy, for many years he worked hard at the Palmyra Sugar Factory - the village of Voznesenskoye, Zolotonoshsky District, Cherkasy Region, Ukrainian SSR. Orders and medals for creative work were added to the front-line awards. Nikolai Kondratievich took an active part in the public life of the Zolotonosha region, in the patriotic education of the younger generation. As I have already said, my grandfather was a great help to my mother, Maria Ivanovna, helped her to get higher education. In 1985, Nikolai Kondratievich came to visit us - in the mining town of Gukovo, Rostov Region. He gave me golden Wrist Watch"Rocket", which I wore a quarter of a century. I will always keep the memory of my heroic grandfather, Lieutenant of the Great Victory Nikolai Kondratievich Petrenko. And my children, and future grandchildren, will never forget their veteran. It is a pity that for political reasons it is difficult (which is impossible to hide!) to come to the grave of my grandfather: Ukraine and Russia have temporarily quarreled. The graveyard of the heroic guard lieutenant is located in the village of Palmyra (the former name is the village of Voznesenskoe) in the Zolotonoshsky district of the Cherkasy region of the Republic of Ukraine. Eternal glory to the guards officer of the Great Patriotic War Nikolai Kondratievich Petrenko! REMEMBER! WE'RE PROUD!
