– From the beginning of the war itself, in his incomplete 14 years, Viktor Mikhailovich participated in military operations, put up leaflets, derailed enemy trains, went on reconnaissance. During one of the tasks, the partisans blew up a German train. Among the members of the sabotage group was Viktor Mikhailovich. Once there was a combat mission: to put up leaflets and deliver bandages to the partisans. But he was seized and was about to be shot along with other partisans, but the policeman, seeing that there was a boy in front of him, took pity on him and pushed him away, and this saved him. It happened in Vilnius, in the area of the Belarusian gymnasium, and he was only 16 years old at that time. Viktor Mikhailovich participated in many combat operations of the partisan detachment. In 1944, after the liberation of Belarus, he was appointed to the Red Army. After the war, he studied at the Verkhnedvinsk Pilot School and received the profession of a military pilot. He forever linked his fate with the army, which he gave for more than 30 years and took the rank of major in the Air Force, and after reaching the rank of lieutenant colonel of the army in retirement. I am proud of my great-grandfather: he is my hero, my role model. And I think I will express the general opinion of young people by saying that it is important to remember what trials our ancestors went through so that we can live in a world country. And we won’t forget. We remember and we are proud!
