Petrov Vasily Kuzmich, was 4.5 years old when the war began
«Not far from us was a family. The Germans chose houses, asked for bugs, if there are lice? They decided that they would not let the Germans in, let their relatives in, and they made a sign on the door: typhoid. Well, here comes a car with a red cross, the Germans go inside that apartment. After a while they go out, they close the door, pour gasoline over it and burn it before our eyes. All two families stayed there. And in the 42nd year, they began to evict us in the direction of the Orel, there was an agricultural camp. Three years we were there. I wish a peaceful sky over your head! And young people themselves must keep up with life! Do not be lazy! And know the story, don't forget!»
