Today I want to tell you an amazing story about a brave Soviet female sniper, who, already at an age, showed a real example of courage and valor. I hope that this story will be of interest to you and you will watch this short film to the end ..
Almost everyone knows about the Great Patriotic War, young and old .. How many brave heroes there were in the Soviet Union who, at the cost of their own lives, stood up to defend the Fatherland, can no longer be counted. Someone deliberately added age to himself in order to go to the front, someone helped the country while remaining in the rear, there was work for everyone. There were also those whose age has long exceeded 50, who would already like to just live their life in peace, remembering the happiest days of their youth. But the war crossed everything.
The woman we are talking about now, over the four years of the war, destroyed more than one hundred and twenty fascist soldiers and officers, but unfortunately she did not live up to the Great Victory for only 8 days.
Comrade Petrova!
Nina Pavlovna Petrova was born in 1893 in the city of Oranienbaum (now the city of Lomonosov, Leningrad Region). Soon the family moved to St. Petersburg. However, the head of the family suddenly fell ill and died. Nina's mother was left with five young children in her arms. The thin, short girl Nina, who had just finished the fifth grade of the gymnasium, had to take on the role of the family's breadwinner. For three years, Nina Petrova graduates from a trade school and goes to work, changing cities and professions: in Vladivostok, she works as an accountant, at the same time she studies at a commercial school, and works as a shipbuilder in Revel. The girl sent almost all the money she earned home, she did not forget for a second that her relatives really needed her help at home. In 1927, together with her ten-year-old daughter Nina, she returned to Leningrad. Zdec in neo poyavlyaetcya novaya ctract - ona aktivno starts uvlekatcya razlichnyh vidami cporta, zavoovyvaya all novye nagrady and prizovye mecta: verhovaya ezda, greblya, plavanie, velociped, konkobezhny cport, skiing, hokkey c myachom, backetbol, Nina becomes a real athlete ... Nakonets ona finds his true calling - bullet shooting. Her accuracy was truly amazing, she left her rivals far behind: on account of Nina Petrova there were about 70 honorary awards, among which there was a nominal small-caliber rifle. One of the first in Leningrad, she receives the “TRP” badge of the 1st stage. By the age of forty, Petrova had become one of the best snipers in the Soviet Union. The sportswoman not only herself perfectly mastered the art of shooting, but enthusiastically prepared others - only in the pre-war years she trained more than a hundred Voroshilov shooters.
In 1935, the Soviet-Finnish war began. Nina Pavlovna at that time was 42 years old, she heard only refusals in the military registration and enlistment offices. However, she had good experience in nursing - and Petrova ensured that she was taken to a rehabilitation hospital. Here, she not only performed her duties as a medical worker, but without any exaggeration, she replaced the mother of the fighters. She, by the way, was called Mama Nina until the end of her life. In the summer of 1941, when the Great Patriotic War began, Petrova was already 48 years old, undefeated age. But Nina Pavlovna insisted: “I am fluent in a combat rifle and personal weapons. I worked in a hospital, passed the standards for the "Ready for Labor and Defense" badge. Please send me to the front immediately!” At first she was refused, but very soon they changed their minds.
Nina Pavlovna was enrolled in the medical battalion, but already in November she was transferred to the rifle battalion of the Tartu division, in which she defended her native Leningrad. In those battles, Nina Pavlovna not only destroyed enemies, but also trained other snipers. In total, during the war years, she trained 512 shooters! The students remembered Petrova as a patient, wise woman and a truly brilliant master of her craft. Nina Pavlovna not only taught the soldiers technical aspects, but also brought up self-confidence in them.
During the war years, Petrova served as a sniper, scout, commander, helped nurses and was a hope and support for the soldiers. Mother Nina washed clothes for the soldiers, helped to hem their uniforms, shaved them and supported them with a kind word. She was the first to rise from the trenches with shouts of "Hurrah!", raising the morale of the soldiers, and did not stop teaching them competent combat right on the front line.
