Бурят с ПТР жёг броню под Воронежем. От него остался только гнутый ствол...

One soldier with one rifle stopped a German crossing for three days. No one ever found him—neither his body nor his medallion. His award sheet listed him as "missing in action." This story is not fiction. It's based on a real award sheet from the archives, eyewitness testimony, and a single bent barrel in the sand. You'll learn how a shepherd from Transbaikalia single-handedly burned German armor, why he didn't shoot at an engineer walking alongside the water, and what actually bent the barrel. The ending is not what it seems at the beginning. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🕒 Timestamps 00:00 — A Rifle and an Empty Shore 09:55 — A Hunter by the Water 21:10 — Order to Hold the Crossing 34:24 — A German Engineer Searches for a Point 47:38 — The Last Battle on the Spit 58:13 — Missing in Action ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Sources 1.
