How did the hero children influence the victory in the Eastern Front?

The Eastern War ended 75 years ago.  This war changed the course of world history, the fate of people and the map of the world.  Our people resisted the powerful onslaught of a highly organized and well-armed enemy - Nazi Germany and its allies.  The highest price was paid for the Victory - the price of life.  The war left its mark on the fate of every family.  Each had their own business.  And it brought closer the last day of the war.

Child Heroes in the Eastern War:

  1. Leonid Alexandrovich Golikov.

   Leonid Aleksandrovich Golikov was born on June 17, 1926 in the village of Lukino, Starorussky district, in a working class family.

   Graduated from 7 classes.  He worked at the factory in the village of Parfino as a brigade scout of the 67th detachment of the 4th Leningrad partisan brigade, operating in the Novgorod and Pskov regions.  He participated in 27 military operations.  Especially distinguished himself in the defeat of the German garrisons in the villages of Aprosovo, Sosnitsy, North.

   In total, he destroyed 78 Germans, 2 railway and 12 highway bridges, 2 food and fodder warehouses and 10 vehicles with ammunition.  Accompanied a wagon train with food (250 carts) to besieged Leningrad.  For valor and courage he was awarded the Order of Lenin, the Order of the Red Banner, the medal "For Courage" and the medal of the Partisan of the Patriotic War, II degree.

   On August 13, 1942, returning from reconnaissance from the Luga-Pskov highway, not far from the village of Varnitsy, Strugokrasnensky district, he blew up a car with a grenade, in which there was a German major general of the engineering troops Richard von Wirtz.  The report of the detachment commander indicated that Golikov shot the general, as well as the officer and driver accompanying him, in a firefight, but after that, in 1943-1944, General Wirtz commanded the 96th Infantry Division, and in 1945 he was captured  by American troops.  The scout delivered a briefcase with documents to the brigade headquarters.  Among them were drawings and descriptions of new samples of German mines, inspection reports to higher command and other important military papers.  Nominated for the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

2. Zinaida Martynovna Portnova.

   Zinaida Portnova was born on February 20, 1926 in the city of Leningrad in a working class family.  Belarusian by nationality.  She graduated from 7 classes.

   At the beginning of June 1941, she arrived for school holidays in the village of Zuya, near the Obol station of the Shumilinsky district of the Vitebsk region.  After the Nazis attacked the USSR, Zina Portnova ended up in the occupied territory.  Since 1942 - a member of the Obolsk underground organization "Young Avengers", the head of which was the future Hero of the Soviet Union ES Zenkova, a member of the organization committee.  In the underground she was admitted to the Komsomol.

   According to Soviet historiography, she participated in the distribution of leaflets among the population and sabotage against the invaders.  While working in the canteen of retraining courses for German officers, she poisoned the soup at the direction of the underground (more than a hundred officers died).  The Nazis began to search for intruders, suspecting one and all.  Zina, whom the Germans almost forcibly fed with the same soup, also fell under suspicion.  She did not remember how she got to the porch of her grandmother's house, but she gave her herbal decoctions and milk whey to drink, as a result the girl remained alive.  However, after the incident, it was mortally dangerous for her to stay in the village, and Portnov was sent to a partisan detachment.

   Since August 1943, a scout of the partisan detachment named after.  K. E. Voroshilov.  In December 1943, returning from a mission to find out the reasons for the failure of the Young Avengers organization, she was captured in the village of Mostishche and identified by a certain Anna Khrapovitskaya.  At one of the interrogations by the Gestapo of the village of Goryany (now the Polotsk district of the Vitebsk region of Belarus), grabbing the investigator's pistol from the table, she shot him and two more Nazis, tried to escape, but was captured.  After that, she was tortured for over a month, trying to get any information about the partisans.

   On the morning of January 10, 1944, she was shot in the prison of the city of Polotsk.

   There are streets in honor of Zina Portnova in St. Petersburg and Maskimovo.
