In that ill-fated day, the brothers with their relatives-schoolchildren rested in nature in the tents, nobody expected attacks. Abdujrade was killed immediately for the fact that he had come for one of the boys whom the bandits began to insult. Magomet before his death was tortured, as his documents of law enforcement officers were discovered. The purpose of the bullying was to force Nurbagandov to record to renounce his colleagues, recognize the power of militants and urge Dagestanis to leave the police. In response to this, Nurbagandov appealed to colleagues with the words "work, brothers!" Enrarous militants remained only to kill him. President Vladimir Putin met with the parents of the brothers, thanked them for the courage of his son and assigned him the title of Hero of Russia posthumously. The last phrase of Magomet became the main slogan of the outgoing year and, it can be assumed for years ahead. Two little children remained without a father.

The plane was walking along the river bed at an altitude of 3500 m at a speed, much more than could develop La-7. It was Me-262. Kozadub instantly accepted the decision. The Pilot M-262 was hoping for the speed qualities of his car and did not control the airspace in the rear hemisphere and below.

The Germans succumbed to the trick - Fokke-Wolfs began to free from bombs that interfere with the air battle. However, the Luftwaffe pilots soon set the presence of only two La-7 in the air and, using the numerical advantage, took the guards in turnover. One FW-190 managed to go to the tail of the Kozhelub fighter, however, Titarenko opened fire before the German pilot - Fokke-Wulf exploded in the air.

Moravitsky Luka Zakharovich

He worked on the subway in Moscow. He graduated from the Aeroklub. In the Soviet Army since 1937. He graduated from the Borisoglebsk Military School of Pilots in 1939.B.zu

Member of the Great Patriotic War since July 1941. His combat activity, Junior Lieutenant Moravitsky began in the 29th JEAP of the Moscow Military District. This regiment met the war on outdated fighters and-153. Enough maneuverable, they inferior the opponent's aircraft in speed and firepower. Analyzing the first air contractions, the pilots came to the belief that they need to abandon the template of rectilinear attacks, but to fight on the devices, in dive, on the "hill" when their "seagull" gained extra speed. At the same time, it was decided to go to the flights "Two", refusing the link set from three cars established by the official position.

The first flights of "bodies" showed their explicit advantage. So, at the end of July, Alexander Popov in a pair with Luke Moraravitsky, returning after the maintenance of bombers, met with the six "Messers". Our pilots were first rushed into the attack and shot down the leading enemy group. Stunned by a sudden strike of the Nazis hurried to get out.

On each plane, Luke Moravitsky white paint took the inscription in the fuselage - "For Any". The pilots initially laughed at him, and the bosses ordered to erase the inscription. But before each new flight on the fuselage, an airplane appeared again - "For Any" ... Hickto did not know who this is such an Anya, which Luke remembers, even going to battle ...

Once before the fighting departure, the regiment commander ordered the Moravitsky immediately erase the inscription and more so that it was not repeated! Then Luka and told the commander that this is his favorite girl who worked on a metrostroy with him, studied at the AeroLube, which she loved him, were going to get married, but ... she crashed, jumping from the aircraft. The parachute did not open ... Let her not in battle died, continued onions, but she was preparing to become a air fighter, to defend his homeland. The commander has come tortured.

By participating in the defense of Moscow, the Commander of the 29th Japa Luke Moravitsky achieved brilliant results. It was distinguished not only sober calculation and courage, but also the willingness to go to everything to win over the enemy. As of September 3, 1941, acting on the Western Front, he tagged the enemy reconnaissance aircraft non-111 and committed a safe landing on a damaged plane. At the beginning of the war, the aircraft we had little and that day the Mrauravitsky had to fly to one - to cover the railway station, where the unloading of echelon with ammunition was. Fighters, as a rule, flew a pair, and here - one ...

At first everything went calmly. Lieutenant Zorkko followed the air in the area of \u200b\u200bthe station, but as a cluster, if the head of multi-layer clouds, rain. When Mravitsky made a turn over the outskirts of the station, he saw a German plane between the tiers of the clouds. Luke sharply increased the rotation of the motor and rushed back by "Heinkel-111". The attack of Lieutenant was unexpected, on Heinkel, did not have time to open fire, as the machine gun turns the enemy, and he wanted steeply, began to fall. Moravitsky caught up with Heinkel, reopened fire on him and suddenly the machine gun was silent. The pilot made a recharge, but apparently the ammunition ended. And then Moraravitsky decided to brag the enemy.

He increased the speed of the aircraft - "Hakel" is closer and closer. Here are already visible in the cabin of the Nazis ... Without reducing speeds, Moravitsky approaches nearly close to the fascist aircraft and the screw strikes the tail. The jerk and the screw of the sewage fighter the metal of the tail plumage is not-111 ... The opponent's airplane crashed into the ground behind the railway blade on the wasteland. Luke also hit his head heavily about the dashboard, the sight and lost consciousness. I woke up - the plane falls to the ground in the cutting. Having gathered all the forces, the pilot struggled to rotate the car and brought it out of steep dive. I could not fly further and I had to plant a car at the station ...

Gone, Moravitsky returned to his regiment. And again fights. Several times a few times a day flew into battle. He rushed into battle and again, as before the injury, on the fuselage of his fighter, it was carefully derived: "For Any." By the end of September, about 40 air victories were already obsessed personally and as part of the Group on the account of a courageous pilot.

Soon one of the squadrons of the 29th IAP, which contained Luke Mrauravitsky, was transferred to the Leningrad Front to enhance the 127th IAP. The main task of this regiment was the maintenance of transport aircraft along the Ladoga highway, covering their landing, loading and unloading. Acting as part of the 127th IAP senior lieutenant Moravitsky hit another 3 opponent aircraft. On October 22, 1941, for the exemplary fulfillment of military assignments, for courage and courage, the title of Hero of the Soviet Union was awarded to the courage and courage. By this time, 14 shot down enemy aircraft were already on his personal account.

On November 30, 1941, the Commander of the 127th IAP Senior Lieutenant Maravitsky died in unequal air combat, defending Leningrad ... The total result of his combat activities, in various sources, is estimated in different ways. The most frequently found digit 47 (10 victories of personally obsessed personally and 37 in the group), less often - 49 (12 personally and 37 in the group). However, all these numbers do not fit into the number of personal victories - 14 above. Moreover, in one of the publications, it is generally argued that his last victory of Luke Moravitsky won in May 1945, over Berlin. Exact data, unfortunately, not yet.

Luka Zakharovich Moravitsky is buried in the village of Capitolo, the Vsevolozhsky district of the Leningrad Region. His name is called the street in the village of Long.

Modernity with its measure of success in the form of monetary units gives rise to much more heroes of the scandalous secular chronicle, rather than true heroes, their actions causing pride and worship.

Sometimes it seems that the real heroes remained only on the pages of books about the Great Patriotic.

But at any time, those who are willing to sacrifice the most expensive in the name of loved ones, in the name of the Motherland.

On the Day of Defender of the Fatherland, we will recall the five of our contemporaries who committed feats. They did not seek glory and honors, and simply fulfilled their duty to the end.

Irina Yanina

"The war is not a female face" - the wise phrase. But it turned out that in all wars that Russia was led by women, there were women along with them to carry all the burdens and deprivation.

Born in Talda-Kurgan of the Kazakh SSR November 27, 1966, the girl Ira did not think that the war from pages of books would go into her life. School, medical school, position of sanitaria in a tuberculous dispensary, then in the maternity hospital - a purely peaceful biography.

Everything turned the collapse of the Soviet Union. Russians in Kazakhstan suddenly became other people's unnecessary. Like many, Irina and family went to Russia, where she had enough of his problems.

Nurse medical company prompt brigade in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia from the city of Kalach-on-Don - in this position Sergeant Yanina fell on his second war. Banda Basayeva rushed to Dagestan, where local Islamists were already waiting for them.
