My father was involved in World War II. He was still alive. If he had died in the war, you would not be able to read these lines – your writer does not appear to be light.

     The parent was called to military service – the Navy – in 1939, before the Second World War. After the end of hostilities it is not immediately get free. It was necessary to transfer experience to young sailors. In total, he gave military service eight of the best young years of life. My father has repeatedly offered to become a naval officer, but he flatly refused pacifist at heart, he hated officers. Parent does not want to be a despot, not appreciating, but administering other people’s lives commander.

On their own, neither I nor anyone else, he never did and never told about the war. Called the war thrown in the life of the period.

My father began serving in the maritime frontier in Kealia – a former Bessarabia, which by Ribbentrop Pact – Molotov retreated again, like we did before World War I, the Soviet Union.

Navy seamen, as in the soviet movies, started to try machine-gun belts from a machine gun “Maxim”. Wore them over his shoulders, criss-cross. Benefit for the appearance of military officers should not, as commissioners to the newly returned territory had not yet emerged from the Soviet Union. But the fashion has passed quickly – it was terribly uncomfortable and heavy to carry machine-gun belts. As the heroes of films about the revolution they were worn?

One day my father, along with other navy seamen  guarding the village council – the building of a new administration, the Soviet government. Come local, Bessarabian shepherd and says: “I – worker, the proletarian. I’m – for the Soviets. What will I post? The navy seamen  asked: “Read, write, know how?” No “. “Well, how was a shepherd, so you’ll  stay the same.”

How attractive corrupts, parasitizing the idea of communism, as set out in the line of the party communist anthem “The Internationale” – “Who was nothing will become everything.” Without work, without knowledge, only be poor. Obviously, the shepherd, the blood on the lives of others, subsequently made his career as a communist. He has always indignantly will remember the navy seamen  in the machine-gun belts that are wrong with it cost, did not give him a managerial position.
