Read his letters right from the scene during the Pressure of the Pressure, organized by the Pressure, organized by the Patriotic Flight in the Great Patriotic War “The Battle of Moscow-the Feat of the whole country”, last April in Moscow, Moscow and Tver regions, the journalists of the Union media met with the expert, head of the department of search and design work of the Russian Military Historical Society Sergey Machinsky.

In May, Sergey Alexandrovich asked the Standing Committee with a request: Russia's search engines would like to receive an invitation from their Belarusian colleagues starting excavations in the Brest Fortress. Such assistance was immediately provided, the Belarusian side quickly resolved the issue. Finally I'm in Brest !!! I was here before as a tourist, a participant in the reconstruction of the events of the summer of the year.

But now I have come to work, look for those who died here in the hot June. I am a soldier, and in this anniversary year of the flight of victory, I came to those who died in the first minutes, hours, days of that war, died, not yet realizing what happened, died in a dream, but by the death of this victory. Everything, hear, all the Soviet people who died in that war are heroes, all as one.

So I think, my friends believe, those who are engaged in searching.

Sergey Machinsky biography

But how, you say, the person who died in a dream was able to bring the victory, never shot at the enemy who did not commit a feat? I thought about it for a long time before. The fact is that he took on that bullet, the fragment that could kill the other, the one who reached Berlin, because, having flickered in the target of the German shooter, he distracted him and gave him a chance to throw a grenade, cross behind the tubercle, shoot and kill the enemy, with his stray body under the tracks of enemy tanks for a second, delayed their movement.

That's why they are heroes !!! For me, there is no higher honor at this difficult time to stand with them into one system, because now there is a war again. War with memory, war for the truth. While she goes on the pages of the Internet, in media reports, in the statements of politicians. And in this war there are their heroes and their traitors, those who betrayed the memory of the feat of their ancestors, betrayed them, who gave their lives for freedom.

And in this war, they who fell, need our help, do not want oblivion, peace. They want us to remember, because every soldier found again gets into line, recalling with his return: we were, we died to live. Each returned name is a shell in those who say that it was not so that she was not so great, this victory. And here we are in the same way, falling and alive, like K.

Simonov - "living and dead." Some of the search engines said that we are a delayed funeral team. And so we came here 74 years after the outbreak of that war - for those who entered the battle and died first. I walked today along the casemates of the Brest Fortress and spoke to them. I told them that we came, we remember them and will never betray them. I am not crazy, I am a normal ordinary person, but I speak with them, because I believe and I know: they are next to God.

All of them, who fell for their homeland - saints, stand next to him and look at us, sometimes rejoice for us, sometimes upset, but will always help. This is mine, it is easier for me to live, living as honestly and correctly as possible. Although it does not always work out, I try. I try to just be worthy. To make sure that they survived that they survived so that my daughter lived in a peaceful, calm and honest country.

And for this, the country should be strong - first of all, with my spirit, and I take this power from them. After all, they were able to defend freedom, without hesitation, to give their lives for this freedom, and we are not in the right to be worse. Tomorrow we go to the first point, where, according to the available information, our soldiers died and remained on the battlefield, I think about them and will think all night.

They say here - we do not find them, but they find us
