PART III. Town and city dwellers

MINSK - VOLGOGRAD
 
What is now important among residents of Volgograd, about conversations with acquaintances meetings, working together in groups and families.
About two presidents: of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and Lukashenko Alexander Grigoryevich.
I decided to write about Lukashenka.
So the theme, focus of conversations - which one is better president: Russia and Belarus. And what system is better capitalist or socialist.
I ask myself: what system you closer Fedor. Without a doubt - a socialist.
February 15, are attacks on the TV to Belarus and President Lukashenko specifically: cut off the gas.
Everyone understands that we now have a pro-American policy. US president in the 80s our country called the Soviet Union - an evil empire.
We answer, the Soviet people: Evil Empire - is the United States.
Why all the peoples of the world are antipathetic to the Americans, and their army all the more?
The author of these lines in years 1987 and 1988 was on a mission in Belarus Osipovichi and Lyapichev, with a team of 59 "Barricades" factory of the plant.
We drove to 17 people. Two engineers from our department and fitters from the shop, and a controller. Everyone was pleasantly surprised: culture, friendly people of this republic, tact sellers in shops, where it was the variety of products and their quality is excellent.
Military with a / h where we have arrived, said that after the service wish to remain permanently in Belarus. While it is clear that many of them are citizens of other republics of our great country - the USSR.
When you walk into the train, and it starts to move, the speaker said that we must be careful, polite to each other.
This was repeatedly stated in our team.
21.02.04 Yesterday on TV in the program "Mirror" again sounded accusations of Belarus - Lukashenko. "The contradiction in Belarus", "anti-national Lukashenko." I want to say to the people of Belarus, beware.
We know that the opposition - a rogue in the country, which are fed through the special services of the USA.
An example of the Germans, who stopped at the Minsk airport and found with him thousands of dollars. It is clear that he was taking them to the "opposition" to undermine the people's system.
 
MEETING ON THE FIELD
 
              To cite one case.
              In September of each year, we in the Volgograd Region is collecting vegetables.
From the square in Dzherzinskogo Traktorozavodskoy area at 6:00 for buses and want to go to the fields to pick tomatoes buckets already in place. Once, in one weekend, I also went with the two buckets on the field.
Terms are: collecting 15-20 boxes each (Box 3.5 buckets) and get 3 rubles per drawer and two buckets of tomatoes along.
The working day until 17:00, and there often until 20:00. So I collected 20 boxes and decided to rest for the first 10 hours of operation. He sat down, leaned against the stockpiled crates and relax, exposing his face the gentle autumn sun.
Look, on the road going truck Mercedes. Stops. From it comes a woman of about 50, blond. Passing me, she told me in a rude manner: "You Th sitting (like a slave, a slacker), go to work. Sooner I sat down to rest. "
I looked at it carefully and lazily replied: "Yes, have a rest." For over 12 years of experience in the protection of the bourgeoisie had seen enough of Volgograd, their arrogant, unscrupulous sons at the University of safety, convenience stores, restaurants, roulette, schools, slot machines, which work part of the security agencies guards. So that exposure to altitude.
The woman comes back and has already peacefully, more or less, starts a conversation with me.
It turns out that she and her husband came from Belarus for the purchase and sale of tomatoes. I take it and asked her, "What is your President Lukashenko."
And then it was a change: from arrogant, self-satisfied she became modest landowner. I sobbed. He has made a tearful face and exclaimed:
- Oh, how he mocks us.
I probably surprise eyes widened. Then she explained gentle voice:
- He does not give us the will and traders said that will cover us all. And you have private ownership thrives well - hopefully she babbles.
But how they thrive, we see in Volgograd. Since 1991, when August came to the square in Moscow, loafers, criminals, traitors and under the leadership of a political criminal, Yeltsin made a bourgeois revolution.
People at the plant,               where I worked did not pay for 5-8 months, robbed and stole all our savings in Sberbank.
A factory directors, former obkomovtsy, merchants began to build themselves houses, buy factories, shops (privatize).
Casino appears. There was orgpristupnost.
That is what a market economy, capitalism and "democracy". It's workers, engineers, pensioners, schoolchildren, students experience daily on itself.
The "opposition" in Belarus - this is the same renegades and traitors like us. This knowledge and understanding honest citizens of Russia.
We hear the views of Volgograd:
- Yes, lucky with the President of Belarus.
- One Republic from the CIS, where socialism remained.
- Yes, Lukashenko, Well done!
That calls residents of Volgograd.
 
REACTION OF NEWSPAPERS VOLGOGRAD
 
As Volgograd newspaper responded to this provocation. February 27 bought the newspaper "The Bell" at the newsstand at the bus stop area Titov. I read on the first page under the heading: The Facts. Developments. A comment.
"What are the causes of the" gas blockade "of Belarus? They are not economic. We simply cite the publication in the US «The Washington Times »for February 10, 2004.
"There is no doubt that the project of building liberal democracies in Central and Eastern Europe after the end of the" Cold War "was the obvious success. However, the purpose of which took place in the Latvian capital of the international conference, which was attended by a representative of the US Congress delegation led by John McCain, was not celebrating success and draw attention to the apparent failure of one - the last director of Europe, the head of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko. The Nordic countries together pledged to put pressure on Mr Lukashenko, ... ".
It should be understood that Putin was connected to the "single antilukashenskomu front", he is no stranger to the West to provide such services. "
Under the heading
Short
President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko recalled for consultations, the Belarusian ambassador in Russia.
"This unprecedented step as the people off in the winter gas at almost 20 degrees of frost, have not been since the Great Patriotic War" - reads the statement of the Belarusian government.
"Now, our relations with Russia for a long time will be gassed" - said Lukashenko.
The newspaper "Volgogradskaya Tribuna" of 03/05/04, in the article "The deceased lion and stupid donkey can kick" being Lenin's and Stalin's protection, we read: "... .Nedavno in the TV program" Time ", which is Mr. Posner, inveterate anti-Soviet, poborschiki capitalism Yakovlev, Zakharov and others pereplyunuv writer Volkogonova from criticism of Stalin switched to Lenin.
I have no other word for them, they are scum. Before the age of gray hair in a great country, which received free education, well-appointed apartments, villas, cars, and now they pour dirt on the Soviet past.
... Rights dad Lukashenko, who said that the Bialowieza plotters, the USSR collapsed, the people will curse and forget. "
Nikolai Manzhosov
 
Wednesday, March 3 came out of the trolley on the Chekists area, walk into the building Tsiolkovsky street, house №2, where there is a version of the "bell." I went into the office Terentyev Stanislav Viktorovich. The door is open.
- Hello, I am a second - I stop at the door.
- Come in, come in, - warmly greets me editor.
- Thank you, - I say. - From the public.
- For what? - He throws up his eyes a little surprised Terentyev.
- For an article in the newspaper about Lukashenka, - I say.
- A - Stanislav smiles. - I'm glad you liked the article to the public.
We shake hands.
- Yes, actually - I say.
- Why are you so interested in the article about Lukashenka? - He asked.
- Yes, began to write about it - I said.
- Do you have nothing to something, - he asked amiably.
- The thing is that I always try to keep up with the times - I say.
- Since 1981, I began to write about the police. This theme interested the Soviet people until 1991.
- From 1991 to 1996, he entered the Cossack movement and began to keep a diary.
- In 2003, I wrote the story of his service in the Caucasus, in Georgia.
              - Well, now the actual theme of the two presidents, two systems.
What is important for me in a literary work? Realism and reality - finished his question.
Ten minutes later, warm goodbye.
 
On Saturday, March 27th. At the top of Titova Street, near the market, I bought the newspaper "Cossack Circle".
A new editor introduced in February 2004. Up to the second floor of the house 15 on the street Workers and Peasants.
I went into the office. At the window a man sitting on the right 55 years, full, friendly.
- Good day, - I say.
- Hi, - he says.
- You Mikhail Kuznetsov.
- Yes, and you?
- Pillars Fyodor - I continue the conversation.
- Who? - His eyes narrowed fun, like something remembered.
- Pillars Fyodor, - with a kind smile, I repeat.
- When did you become an editor, I wondered if you are the son of my teacher on the history of Matthew Vasilyevich Kuznetsov.
- Yes, there is, - his eyes grustneyut.
- I knew our foreman.
- You know, I met on the street Titova, Romashkova Alexander Mikhailovich, the former editor of "Barricades" and he advised me to meet you and to convey to you greetings from him - I say.
We talked for ten minutes, and then with respect to each other, separated until the next meeting.
So in the newspaper under the heading "Word Publications" in the article: "To live a fun, carefree ...".
I read "... the world has never been uniform and those not. But the gap between poverty and wealth can be a strong reduction of the state's will. Sumela is Belarus to take strict control of food prices.
Perhaps this is also one of the reasons recalcitrant Russian rich, disturbing the unity of the fraternal peoples? ... "
Valentin Kononov
 
17.04 at 20:30 on TV program "Mirror" leading Svanidze. Subject: President Lukashenko of Belarus. The meaning of the words to talk about Lukashenka Svanidze, which he bad, and how it does not like the opposition, and Russia as well.

May 15
 
The park is named after Yuri Gagarin talking with a woman 45 years old she is, she was born in Belarus, but lived a long time with us.
He began to question her about Lukashenka:
- Yes, I was there recently - she says. - That's where the Soviet regime.
- All businesses operate. Money workers receive on the same day.
- Where the delay comes Lukashenko himself, understands and if the guilty officer, dismisses.
- Residents of Belarus surprised that we get below the subsistence level, and the delay of wages up to 1 year.
After talking with her, parted.
It ended the year 2004.
 
 
 
 
 
 
It began in 2005
 
On March 12 in the morning, on Titova Street I met Dima Paretskaya, old friend. He was our deputy section chief, and his father, Paretsky Eugene Markovich, led us in a technical subject - electrical equipment.
Warm memory stayed with us all about his father. And his younger son Misha served in the Interior Ministry in 1979.
So we are talking about the current situation:
- Yes, I am, every year in Belarus, on vacation, - he says.
- The order in everything, both in the Soviet time, - he concluded.
Heat parted.
 
 
March 23
 
I went to the district committee of the Communist Party, in our Krasnooktyabrsky area. I took the newspaper "Volgogradskaya Pravda" and "True" for March 11, 2005 and read articles about Belarus. Very timely.
"What is a human rights activist told the laptop?"
"In the history of the secret services of various known failures. But perhaps this was not. Balazs Yarabik, a functionary of the international human rights organization "Fridium Hout" aimed to Belarus in order that the people here would help the opposition to overthrow "the Lukashenko regime," got burned on a love of technological progress.
No accessories obsolete their hard work - like shooting pens, invisible ink or fonts - he is not picked up. As a responsible business trip went with only one laptop computer.
For inspection at the Belarusian customs - reacted calmly. And all would have ended without the noise and dust, if the customs officers were not also progress amateurs. They wanted to do some work on a modern laptop. It was then, and went to Mr. Yarabika all sikos-nakos.
The laptop began to issue its new partners the secrets that the owner had kept as the apple of an eye.
At the beginning of the displayed screen is something very curious: political orders for the Belarusian opposition from a number of American institutions, the financial statements of the value of these orders and foreign exchange expenditure of grants allocated to the "promotion of democracy" and against the regime in Belarus ... ".

After talking a little about the restoration of the pool, we parted.
April 4 program on TV «News» was told that there Lukashenka and Putin in Sochi. . One of the themes from 2006 rubles - the main currency in Belarus. God forbid.
 
UNIONS RALLY
 
April 7 at 16:00 am going on the Avenue of Heroes, near the department store, there are two girls 17 years on, it seems, a saleswoman from the store.
I can hear the conversation:
- A meeting? Interesting. Today, probably, will be shown on TV, - and somehow happily laughed.
I went to the square. Are the chain of soldiers in helmets and flak jackets. To leak past them, as well as other residents of Volgograd.
I see students with the institutions of the city, a lot of women 40-50 years old. what good they have bright faces! In the eyes squint and determination! Yes, as they say they took over the gills.
Men are gloomy, some written on their faces: "Shut up, sluhay".
According to the speaker acts as the chairman of the trade union Vyacheslav Kobozev:
- Today, the terrorist threat comes not from some Chechen terrorists, and from power. Because what it has created and continues to create the conditions for discontent and unrest. Commit an act of terrorism utility. We need that kind of power? - Asks Kobyzev.
- No, - answer a thousand voices.
A lot of red banners with the word "Homeland".
I see in the audience of the old Communist (present) Vladimir Ivanovich Aparina with "Barricades" plant. I ask:
- Well, how are you up?
- Oh, ho, ho! - He meets a sigh.
After standing and talking to him a few minutes and bought the newspaper "Working Russia" 2 rubles, I told him:
- I'll go take a walk, can see our barrikadtsev.
- Yeah, - he says kindly.
- Come on!
I walk past the three women age 35-40, one with a banner says:
- Well, they got!
I pass on. On the way, two grandfather 75-80 years. to one another said in their hearts:
- K. city
He went to the eternal fire. Remembered as a schoolboy in 1967 stood here with other pioneers in the honor guard.
I can see is our commander DND, Vasily Zhuk and Commander DND Voroshilov district, the former district of Pankow.
- Good day, - I tell them.
- Good, good, - they answer.
- Fedor, and approximately how many thousands of people? - Asks Vasily.
- Yes, I think 8-10 thousand.
We say goodbye to 9 May. Come to the barricades, I go to the chess club, which is located in the Palace of Culture. Gagarin. Soon comes jovial head of Kalinin Vitaly club.
- I did not see you at the meeting, - he says.
- Yes, I was there - tell him.
- And I was near the podium, I saw Kobyzeva, Aparin, Tarantsova - he continues.
- Well done! - I tell him.
Among the occupants of the area went young men 20-25 years and handed out leaflets. The noise had questions: "Who are you? What party? But the Bolsheviks, then me too. "
The leaflet was an appeal:
 
COMRADES!
 
Flywheel capitalist reforms gaining momentum. Anything that can bring masters huge profits consistently refers to their private property. "Ripe" for this and utilities.
Income from the operation of utility systems hardly succumb income from the exploitation of natural resources.
And what FIPR? What is their role in this process? Trade union bosses at the outset actively participate in the privatization.
They have learned how to "negotiate" with the new owners and the authorities on a regular basis by signing the "tripartite agreement". The results of betrayal interests of the rank and file union members are known:
The salary, if paid, is miserable, strikes are not practiced, the owners and the administration are doing outrage.
Not receiving support from the union, obstinate to lose their jobs, and the decisive singles hunger strikes. FIPR and fully supports the program of reforming housing and communal services.
As privatisers them afraid only destructional wave of popular anger. "Let off steam" unhappy consequences of draconian "innovations" - a task, and this protest. Tariff concessions will be, but the minimum, because authorities to allow "tear" from tenants for the full program.
As a result, a virtuoso of deceit deprived workers nationwide, and then the joint-stock enterprises. Today predator's mouth dropped and our homes.
At present the trade unions and the lack of proper organization of the working class to the corrupt power and unlimited dictatorship of money bags. It's time the workers themselves to take up the defense of their rights.
Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks.

And where I wrote down in my youth in the group to the head of the ensemble Kochetov Vasily Ivanovich. I was engaged in there somewhere about a year. And then he went to the Komsomol Operational Squad "fight" with bullies in our area.

Oh, I almost forgot. On Mamayev Kurgan I was approached by two men familiar with the EIF and gave me a newspaper "Working Russia» №8 (216). In it, including published:
 
Our leaflet
 
NOT ONE STEP BACK
 
So prostonarechii called the famous Stalin's order №227, surrendered in the most tragic days of the Great Patriotic War. In that war, our people converged in mortal combat with the most terrible and dangerous enemy suffered heavy losses, but survived and won.
Why should the defeat today after defeat? Our people have lost vast amounts of wealth that have fallen from public ownership into the hands of Abramovich and Chubais. Lost a decent standard of living, achieved a total work of several generations, free education and medicine, cheap public transportation and secure old age.
Today implemented almost all of the goals of the war, the achievement of which Hitler dreamed. Liquidated socialist state, dissected by several state entities of the USSR, even the Russian flag over the one under which fought on the side of Hitler's Traitors - Vlasov.
But the main thing - to revive the class of gentlemen and gentlemen ... settling scores with the winning nation. This means only one thing - the war continues. Only the external enemy was replaced by internal. A win like in 1945 - m, can only class forces. In that war, it was organized by the Communist Red Army. In today's class war - a Communist Workers' Party, the trade unions and other organizations of persons of wage labor, in their struggle against the class of masters. In this struggle, we have nowhere to retreat, it is time to organize and beat your enemy. Now is our turn.
Not one step back!

BELARUSIAN SHIELD
 
WITHOUT THE RIGHT TO WEAKNESS
 
June 21 came to the district committee of the Communist Party. I read in the newspaper "Pravda" for June 9, 2005 article "No room for weakness.":
              " President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko visited the 927 th Fighter Air Base of Northwest tactical command of the Air Force and Air Defense, located near the town of Bereza, Brest Region.
In recent years, he said at a meeting with the officers, radically changed the direction of a possible military threat. Today no one can give guarantees against military intervention under the pretext of spreading democracy, the bombing of Yugoslavia, US aggression in Iraq and Afghanistan have clearly demonstrated the weakness of the international organizations, in particular - the United Nations.
The Head of State drew attention to the complex geopolitical situation that is emerging around the republic:
- Constantly heard incitement to violent, unconstitutional change of government and socio-economic structure. Increasingly heard threats of external aggression, not only information, but also for military intervention. The unprecedented pressure on Belarus is in various fields and canals ...
- Today there is no more important task than to defend our achievements, our people and the earth, - said Alexander Lukashenko . "

And he began the story.
In 1996, I was at the police station: 4 Street station, the house 5. Comes woman age 25. He lives on the street Tariff. Upset. Confused. And he starts to tell me what happened to her. Within two years, she and her friend talked sometimes with two guys, one of whom was called Igor. Where he lives, his name, where he works, she did not know.
This Igor once lent her $ 1,500 for the purchase of goods, since it takes a bit of commerce, for half a year, money-back. But a week later came to her home and demanded she Verne The path is debt. She said she was with her friend bought the goods and how to implement it, should pay the debt at a fixed time. Igor insisted, as he must return the money to someone, and then it will be bad.
The next day, in the morning, she came out of the house. She was waiting for Igor. Seeing her, he stepped out of the car, opened the door in the rear seat.
- Get in the car - he demanded.
He was behind the wheel, she behind. While driving, he occasionally looked at her and repeated roughly the same phrase:
- Bring money. You got me sum up. Bring necessary.
This went on until the evening. On the second and on the third day, he again rolled her through the streets. Again, he repeated these words. She was overwhelmed by this behavior Igor. His pressure. She tried timidly objected that he was not right, but in the car sat rooted to the spot. On the third day of her will weakened, and she gave up.
- What is there to do?
- There is a way, - he said. - We go to a pawn shop my friend there, the security of your apartment it will give the money, and then as a sales item will refund him the money.
We went to a pawn shop. She did not consent to the deal. Director pawnshop shouted Igor:
- Why have you brought her! Get both!
Igor began to shout at her.
- You let me down! You must sign!
These cries continued for some time. Under pressure, she signed a paper, which gave her the director of the pawnshop. It was like in a fog, in oblivion. As they say swam.
Director of the pawnshop gave Igor a large sum of money, he took everything and gave her a small part of the money.
When she replied timidly. He said to her:
- Everything will be alright, do not worry.
Two days later, she comes to the door, and there are things like furniture furniture from their apartments. I went into the entrance, and there bags, accessories and sobbing mother:
- Ring the doorbell. I opened. Immediately we rushed a few young guys who said:
- Go away. Our apartment!
- And present the paper, where such was your signature - has been crying mother.
Neighbors called the police, but the thugs showed the paper and those left. It seems to be under the law.
- When she started to tell me broke, he blazed the whole, the influx of indignation, the wave of protest rose in my soul against such a brazen and cowardly crime. How to help?
- Yes, it will be difficult to you in court, it may take a long time - I said.
She goes to the police station Krasnooktyabrskoye, applies, Head Lavrenenko unsubscribe me.
But where to look? Ida at her home, interrogate neighbors, they give the phone a friend, where she is living. She gave an explanation, which stated in detail the essence of the case.
Going to a pawnshop on Spartanovka in Traktorozavodskiy districts. I go out at the stop "Supermarket". I went to the house of life, in the building which is located on the second floor of the same pawnshop.
At the entrance are two - a man and a man in years. The guy on the signs is somewhat similar to the wanted man. My hunch is that this is the same. But haste is sometimes harmful.
I went into the building through the glass and looked at the guy. One reason to show concern. And then, saying goodbye to friends, I went up the street Gorokhovets, and then turned a quarter. I specifically went out and watched him go, just in case. What if the same?
I went up to the second floor, two girls sit, no director. I introduced myself to precinct showed the certificate, even though he was in uniform.
- I'm looking for Igor, who works for you. I need it for a single call - I said.
One of the workers was talkative and honest. And he said that he lives in a five-storey building in the longest here in the quarter.
- Yes, he still has a dog - she added. Second interrupted her:
- Do not talk much.
I went out. I went to the quarter where the guy was gone. I went to the house where my grandmother sitting on the bench. I tell them:
- I am looking for, call Igor, he has a dog.
- And he lives in the entrance, on the fifth floor - they explained. - There he is with his wife and dog.
I walked into the entrance. I got up on the landing between the 4th and 5th floors. First raised the dog without a leash and growled menacingly, color Rottweiler. But my hand on his holster, pistol grip feeling. It was in a half-turn and covered tablet abdomen. The wife gave the command:
- To me.
And she calmed down, I began to sniff, and I took his hand from his holster.
- And you to whom? - They asked.
- I have to Igor, - I replied.
We went into the apartment, Igor began to play up that he knows nothing, the pawnshop was not. From the other room came the wife:
- You're that cool? Explains the district, it's his job.
He again began to cheat, to say that the owner sold the apartment itself. But hardly has signed an explanation, which he described that he was right and how, in his opinion, was all.
In conversation he said that he worked for a month at the police and then became, as it were, to report on the changers at their comrades about as if their misconduct. And then he walked away from the police. "Good goose" - I thought.
A few days passed. No one injured. I go out once from the reference point, it goes by, thinking. I called out to her. She read his explanation and said:
- I have a chance in court? Do I give back to my apartment?
I said that the court will decide. She paused and then said:
- I'll try another option - and left.
It has been a month or two. I happened to see her on the street. She was in a good mood. I asked her how was the court in which it was to apply?
To this she replied that when all weighed, decided to turn to a steep one friend. And he told about the crime that took place in relation to it. Anyone familiar with her friends climbed out the window, opened the iron door, which put the bandits, was carried out of her apartment chair and a suitcase of cads and threw it out of the house.
Igor turned back to the bandits, but her friends were bigger and they retreated, saying that in general, Igor - skunk and deal with it themselves.
And this speculator Igor himself had to sell 2-room apartment. And some money to pay her cool friends, so to speak, for their work. Yes, they took to the director of the pawnshop as it fine.
- Here, - she said. - To understand without trial. Quickly and efficiently. And my mother again live in his apartment.
- I, - says Vladimir. - I remembered the words of Igor. He boasted that this girl - Loch, and suckers, they say, must be taught and that he is an intelligent and wanted to spit on the one who can deceive and throw.
- So, - he said. - This story will end.
- Here are the details I wanted to know.
- It's your humanity, professionalism, perseverance and willingness to help find that bastard - I said. - Thank you from the public.
That's what crimes were committed when there was private property, capitalism.
Capitalism - evil. Socialism - good. So think of the millions of people of the USSR our country.
 
Novocherkassk - HEART OF RUSSIAN COSSACKS 200 anniversary.
 
"Cossack Circle": Svetlana Grebennikova article.
"Officially, the celebrations began on September 8 is not only a bright upbeat mood of the inhabitants of the Don lands and their numerous guests, but also to such specific activities as a scientific and practical conference" The second Platovskaya read "at the Museum of History of the Don Cossacks.
The next day, already in our presence (part of delegation of 700 people from the Volgograd region) was inaugurated Ataman Palace on Palace Square ... Another opening ceremony of the monument to AS Pushkin in front of the central library ... On the morning of September 10 the residents of Novocherkassk, numerous guests and organized into boxes reestovye Cossacks and other Russian troops flocked to Ascension Cathedral - the heart of the city, the capital of the Cossack ... "
Was on duty at the 14 September edition called the deputy editor of Homeland NS
- Nikolai Semenovich, How are you, the mood?
- It's okay. We went for an anniversary in Novocherkassk.
- Yes, your article hotly disputes discussed Cossacks there, - he continued.
- How? - I was delighted and confused.
- Yes, what year it was, and who was shooting where he was at this time, Swan, - he said in a brief telephone. I had to interrupt the conversation.
September 23 to Nikolai Semenovich drove to work in the office.
- Nikolai Semenovich, I'm excited and I'm glad you tell us in more detail where this conversation took place. You have gathered in the room or on the street? - I asked.
Nikolai Semenovich was silent for some time, looking at me as I spoke, realizing my joy and exhilaration.
- After the Cossacks of all arms held systems by Ascension Cathedral - I began to remember Nikolai Semenovich.
- The Cossacks did not disperse. Approximately at 15:00 formed a circle of about 30 people, where I was one. Were the Terek Cossacks and others, - he continued.
- Here in your newspaper "Cossack Circle" for August 5, 2005, it was written in the article, that General Lebed has fallen from the tree? This is where in Volgograd, eh? - Asked one Cossack.
Then we picked up the other one is a student at the time, and studied at the Polytechnic University; Another student of the Railway Institute, and the third was a teenager, and was sitting on a tree like other boys.
- The first question that they raised: "What year komunyaki shot at workers' demonstration in 1961 and 1962".
- The second question is who fired?
- Whether Lebed was a Cossack and Russian? - Well, it is clear others.
- It turns out Russian soldiers refused to fire on the people. Then they brought the non-Russian soldiers. One of them pulled the trigger of the machine, but the other struck his hand down on the trunk and took place on the asphalt. Others began to shoot into the air. One boy was shot in the leg.
The boys began to jump from trees fell like peas.
One of the Cossacks said:
- I think with me on the same tree and sat Swan!
For me, these disputes have been caused by my article - a balm for the heart.
Have I thought about it in 1991, when he entered the Cossack movement and started a blog for themselves about the events in the period of democratic acrimonious. And when the war actually began in Russia, the Soviet Union.

raskaz PILOT
Air Force - Air Force
SEVASTOPOL
 
The protection of objects of Volgograd fate brought me to Boris Pilipenko, who served as a pilot.
He was born January 11, 1952 in Volgograd. I graduated 10 classes of school №28 in Traktorozavodskoy area in 1969.
I submit documents to the Naval Academy in Sevastopol. As it turned out it prepared only submariners. The third part of the students to go home immediately after learning about it.
- We lived near Sevastopol on the island. His sailors and local residents called the island "Greenland". I handed over 2 examinations, and we decided with the guys on the boat to move to the city of Sevastopol to see its streets, parks, etc. It turned AWOL. And we were sent home. I arrived in Volgograd. And I have suggested in the military apply to flying school in the city of Armavir, and more precisely in the school branch of Stavropol. Passed. He started studying.
On 3 course I arrived to Volgograd and married his classmate Natalia Nikiforova Gennadevne. We live with it until now.
In the 2nd year in college - the first flight. They began to fly at the school on the production of training aircraft L-29 Czech Republic. Easy to operate, easy and generally as a toy. Export program: I'm on the first seat behind the instructor.
The runway is 1200 meters . Takeoff of about 1000 meters . Then you come to the airport on wheels runway and into the air again, making a circle, and so until the end of the fuel in the tank.
For flights detected, whether the trainee so-called "sense of the earth" - is this 10 meters to the ground, you have to plan the aircraft properly. And if this "feeling of the earth," no, it expelled. Who do flights with the first course and identify the feeling. So the lack of "a sense of the earth" leads to tragic consequences - accidents.
After graduating from college in 1973, I was sent to the city of Khabarovsk, the headquarters of the army. Then, on the island of Sakhalin in the city of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. From his train of about 100 km is Smirnykh village.
We fly a plane - small high-altitude interceptor. Interception of 300metrov speed 1700 km \ hour. Yak-28P - the ceiling of 15 km .
We flew on schedule, so there were a few branches. When once a week, and when the bad weather and do not fly. South Sakhalin - climate tropics, the north and center of Sakhalin colder. Each year, home on leave and definitely laid to rest in a sanatorium. The first vacation I've had 67 days and then 45 days plus the road. Vouchers were in a sanatorium in Sukhumi and Lazarevskoye. In Lazarev liked. We catch the fish and on shore oil lamp is made very simple - thanks to Yuri Gagarin. 2:00 And the fish is ready - smoked. Delicious.
- What is interesting to recall from the flight experience? So it is above 20 km the sky was dark blue. That was beautiful!
Surprised girl on Sakhalin: a mixture of Russian and Japanese women. Very beautiful.
A. Before the war, Sakhalin was divided as follows: North - this is our, and half of Sakhalin - the south - is Japanese. After the war in 1945 g . Became our island.
From 1978 to 1982 he served in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous District of the Tyumen region, Komsomolsk village. And from him 10 km military camp in the taiga, the so-called point Geologist. There was a part of the air defense. We worked on the outer reaches of the Yak-28P.
4 years my wife and I have lived in this land: Bears run hither through the taiga and trash. Elks go on the road and look at you when you're driving a car, and then go into the forest. If the moose went on the road, it certainly will tour all. Then they were not shy. In the forest in the summer - mushrooms: boletus, mushrooms. The berries - cranberries. Pine nuts. If the marsh near - then cranberries, blueberries.
In 1982 he moved to the Arctic, the Arkhangelsk Region, the settlement Amderma, on the coast of the Kara (Black) Sea. Polar bears came to the village. Just announced on the radio: "Please be careful. Near this place is a teddy bear. " Suitable to the trash, eat and go, but when the summer swampland. Some throw him cans of condensed milk, he paw quickly opens the lid and overturns his mouth.
Once the summer was "24". All came to the place of "Black Rocks" and sunbathing, the whole regiment. Brave bathed in ice after 100 m.
We had a house officers gym.
We flew on the Tu-128 - fighters, long-range interceptors. The ceiling of 14km, speed 1400 km \ hour. Flight 2.5 hours. Weight 45 tons. 4 years he served there until 1986.
And in 1986 he went to serve in the south in the city of Omsk.
We flew the MiG-31. The ceiling is 27 km . The speed of 2900 km \ hour.
When we went fishing, near Kazakhstan. We saw villages Russian Germans. Neat houses, asphalt, gardens and order.
Until 1994, he served in Omsk. Then he retired. In 2000 he moved to Volgograd, but rather returned to his hometown. We live on Spartanovka. Like this. Hello young of Volgograd. I am glad that my fate was so. And 25 years I have served in our Soviet and then the Russian army.

In the beginning, I stopped near a couple: man and woman, age 25, from Astrakhan.
I asked them:
- There are two versions of why there is no fish in the Volga 4 years:
Version 1 - Kalmyks blocked networks Volga and catch sturgeon and herring.
2 version - an accident at an oil refinery near Astrakhan.
- No, - they say - your HPP late gives the water is delayed by one week, ie previously given on April 24, and so the fish spawn near Astrakhan, and the other part goes to the Ural River - they end up.
