Millions of Soviet soldiers died in this war. But they won and became heroes to every Russian person. I have relations who was in the War and sacrificed their lives for us. My great-grandfather Zaikin Konstantin Ivanovich, my great-grandfather Zaikin Anatoliy Konstantinovich and my great-grandfather Pigilov Alexander Semjonovich were participants in the war.

But he could not work in the rear, when all went to the front. He was 40 when he went to the war. He took part in the blockade of Leningrad. He was buried in a mass grave in the Leningrad region.
