Memories of the battles for Sevastopol:
"I was fulfilling my military duty. What was the defense of Sevastopol look like? There was continuous bombing and artillery shelling, both from our side and from the German side. The Sevastopol bays were unrecognizable. They were overflowing with the bodies of the dead - our own and enemies, soldiers and civilians"
