Then hurt our nurse, broke the door in the car and was hit her in the thigh. In another machine, people lay on the floor, that they were saved, because the car broke through, actually splinters flew above them. The bombardment ended, and only managed to reach the airport terminal building, as she started the second. When a little recovered, we settled down in the shelter. There we tied the nurse, the wound was a depth of 3 inches. And then sent her for treatment in Kharkiv.

The total area of the airport, approximately 270 acres, all units were first distributed on the territory - on the air-RAID shelters, cellars and so on. Our first clinic was arranged in the fire, in a room, protected on all sides by other rooms, but the roof was still open. There made operational and pens' azocine. In the afternoon we went up there and lived in the shelter, there was often left wounded, when they could not send.

The road from the shop to the fire station is 200 metres away, but she often obstrelyali. Go, and then the mortar begins to shoot. And you have 9 seconds to fall, or under the wall something to hide.

At the airport every day you get up and know that there will be a fire. We noticed that up to 12 hours a day shot much less frequently, with lunch often. First, the majority were "Grads", sometimes tank shelling, and later artillery, and mortars that there just is not fired. Night fired stronger. The technique was burning, it was something that burned up to 10 machines per night, although the machine we were half buried in the ground, this is called "caponier", in order to not damage the wheels, engine and tanks.

128

 In case of fire engines in the pits for review, we have arranged something like bomb shelters: put some boxes with sand, although there height was about a meter and a half, there had been hiding during the "Grads". I doubt we would have saved, but it was psychologically easier. And one night the shells landed in our clinic and went through the roof. After that we took one Kubrick, where he slept, and made new clinic.

The wounded we sometimes evacuated themselves, drove to the village of Lutugino, it was 15 km from the airport, this road is also obstrelyali. In the village there was a large plant on its territory were our troops, there was a hospital, with which we worked and our medical team, which was able to transfer the wounded. Make a large deal, such as laparotomy stomach ( surgical procedure that is performed to establish full or partial access to the abdominal, back) we had no opportunity, because no sterility under conditions of the airport could not be. One thing we did amputation, when it was necessary to save life, but to climb in the stomach is quite another.

To those who haven't seen it, it's hard to understand what we felt and how they lived. And we, the soldiers, all the same experience - we now have 2 of the world: one world - life, and the second here. There's no where to go, even if I want to.

We brought people from the villages: adults and children. There were some days that took up to 40 wounded, and sometimes worked around the clock. Very remembered the two girls. One is 5 and a half years, and the second is 2 and a half. She and her mother came under fire. The mother was wounded, we had to help her and evacuated, and the girls were with burns. Very hard to watch them. Children do not understand what is happening. Our Vanya, the nurse hands wore them, gave them halti. Or the old ones were brought in, they are very helpless. Next to us was 2 village: Gravelly and Novoselo, in fact, was razed to the ground. People were sitting in the basement, and then these basements of bombed. And ask them, " why have you not left. And they say, "You know, this is our home, and we have no where to go". It's all a big trouble.

In these villages, as he told the soldiers, the people were hiding in the Church, but the Church, too, was shot. Can't even imagine how. Hard to understand in this situation, where people are held hostage. We are physicians, we did his job, but the people... pity them.

 The food at the front in the majority of the C's. Although sometimes cooked it ourselves. We had a very conditional field kitchen. Sometimes for a long time did not see the bread, ate mostly halti. If they brought bread and water is a holiday. Was such that nobody could get to us, we took water from a closed fire well, it got to extinguish fires. The water boiled, and there were times that the soldiers drank so because the heat was 40 degrees. And rains all the time there were not. To wash, at least sometimes, not recruited more polutoralitrovom bottle. Because this armor in this heat you just cooked. Fatigue do not pay attention, even though she had been asleep for several hours, and sometimes not sleeping at all.

Near us was a group "Aydar", they were fighting in the nearby villages. From them many wounded were brought to us, and I remember one of the first - Andraca Sergei. He is a military guy. Its when we entered, my legs almost wasn't all broken,and he cried out: "Glory to Ukraine, guys." Was very usual. Came to us after about a half-two hours after being wounded, his leg was already half-dead. For health reasons we did it was amputated, but thought he would not survive. He had a shock. Given anesthesia, a blood transfusion. Although, when the question was to save man, it had to be done more than once. So took the guys with the same group and did the transfusion. We didn't even have the bone cut. Thigh - very durable. Her job is not so easy. Dust Gigl we found later, for part of the property remained in the cars. I told the guys that take the soldiers bayonet-knife and try them to cut bone. We processed than antiseptic and made the amputation. Then we evacuated Sergey and I'd really like to find him, to talk to. In General, for 37 days stay at the airport we had 5 amputations.

At the airport only once broke volunteers. It was a "bus" with the Ternopil region, they brought water, food, some clothes, shoes, everything he could. I don't know how they managed to take such civil car and then go from there. I hope that went live. They arrived at your own risk, because in General all was reached only Victory that brought drinking water and stew, banks had written something like this:"from the time the warriors front.

After came humanitarian aid in white Trucks, we really have witnessed the shelling increased significantly.

There were days when the break was not during the day, that is fired constantly. We had the impression that humanitari they have some ammunition was saved, and after that hit the spot. And the last two days before we started to leave the territory, 30-31st August to go at all was impossible. Although still tried, because I had to take the wounded and a few to take in the cars while they were still intact. Go to go 200-300 meters, and already have some sense of how to behave. You know that at any moment can be shot at, and no body armor, no helmet will not save you. But over time, behave just instinctively.

131

The last car with the wounded we sent 31 January night, as if he anticipated that further opportunities to evacuate people will be gone. Because the shoot started every 10-15 minutes. Then came the information that has surrounded us from all sides, there already and the infantry attacked. Our boys gave the command to fight. And although we continued to assist the wounded, if time does not come out, what I would do - don't know us or would fail completely, or take prisoner. All equipment is burnt, the boys took the fire itself, so that we could evacuate. And I don't even remember how we came out. The chief of staff of 80-Ki gave the command to bring the minimum - necessary things. We took 2 BNT in his pockets, analgesic, geguti. Went out at night, under the feet of the funnel, you need to climb, fire everywhere. From one we were thrown projectile and strongly stunned. And in General, they broke one by one. We are fortunate that with the Lutugino sent one car to the outskirts of the airport, we loaded the wounded and carried them on, and they walked through the fields, about knowing the direction. It is a miracle that we are alive, minor injuries I don't think. We went to the village of Georgievka, primarily on the road, about 15 km from the airport. When I got there, the village has not yet fired, and the reports we took the URAL factory in Lutugino, there is also hid in a bomb shelter for the night. Plant though and was fired before, but the morning after our arrival we were overtaken by the fire. Turned out that we were from one hell came to another. We only had time pogruzitsja in the car, as it has been heavily bombed. Again the shells next to us one by one. Don't even know how many birthdays you can have during this time. We went back to the Victory, it's 100 something miles very dangerous road. Most importantly, as were the guys talking "to reach Happiness" - sounds very symbolic. There stood our posts and then not fired, although it got started and there. And only in the Victory, although she also obstrelyali, you have a feeling that escaped from hell. There was a mobile communication began to call family. Spent the night in the trenches, hiding from the fire. But after what we've gone through it all not seem so terrible.

While they were at the airport, some moments of inspired me: once brought a wounded soldier, he is a gunner. We had to amputate his hand, and he asked: "please don't talk to my boys that I have no hands, because they will fall by the spirit." This is so Patriotic, it's very impressive.
