Dmitry Borisovich Lomonosov, in his venerable 87 years, is known to the Internet community as perhaps the oldest Russian Internet user and blogger. Despite the modern way of life, the main event in it for D.B. Lomonosov remains a distant war, from the beginning of which 70 years have passed. The memory of her for many years haunted the veteran, and he outlined his memories in the pages of this book. Repressed parents, the son of "enemies of the people," a short youth interrupted by the war, difficult soldier labor in the cavalry unit, wanderings in captivity, which almost ended in death from exhaustion in the very last days of the war, and, finally, the post-war stigma of a former prisoner of war. The personal fate of the soldier and the general glory of the military generation are presented in this literary and historically accurate book.
