15.05.2025
My father, Mikhail Cherkashin, a Red Army Guards private soldier, who during the operation «Bagration» evacuated 450 wounded soldiers and officers to the sorting platoon, returned home with honors on April 12, 1945, after a serious injury. His Great Patriotic War took place in the 51st Guards Rifle Division. Lasting over 1,300 days, it ended shortly before the Great Victory.
