During Operation Bagration in the summer of 1944, our troops completely defeated one of the largest German groups - Army Group Center. For the Eighth Guards Company of Senior Lieutenant Vorontsov, the attack began in the early morning of June 22. The platoons went forward next to the chains of penal prisoners, who had been brought in for reinforcement the day before. Opposing them were units of the SS division, which was ninety percent formed from Vlasovites and RONA units of the SS Gruppenführer Kaminsky brigade. In a mortal battle, guardsmen and penalty soldiers came together on one side, and on the other, thugs who had nowhere to retreat, and there was no point in surrendering... The final novel of the cycle about the military fate of the Podolsk cadet Alexander Vorontsov, his military friends and enemies.
