Today is the day of the liberation of prisoners of fascist camps. The story of my grandmother's brother
My grandmother’s brother, Yakov Trofimovich Tkachenko, passed through the German camps. He went to the front in July of the 41st, soon fell into the encirclement, really did not have time to fight. He fled from the first camp, but caught. They beat, by some miracle they did not shoot and lit up in a specially guarded camp, from where it was no longer to escape. He survived there surprisingly, suffered until the liberators' approach.
