In the history of the domestic fleet there were many heroes who performed feats to the glory of Russia. Alas, not everyone was lucky enough to earn the appreciation and memory of descendants. The fate of the hero of the Chesme battle, Lieutenant Ilyin, was dramatic, the names of captains Verevkin and Mulovsky were devoted to undeserved oblivion, the death of the legendary commander of the Mercury brig was surrounded by a veil of secrecy, the national hero of Russia, Admiral Dubasov, was named the executioner, and the brave man and statesman Baranov became the "hero" of cheap jokes. For decades, the forgotten most productive submariner in the history of Russia, Pyotr Grishchenko, wandered around communal apartments... The sailors who laid their lives on the altar of the Fatherland, but undeservedly slandered, are described in a new book by the famous Russian writer-marine painter Vladimir Shigin.
