Tri moikh voiny - V.M. Kononov

This book is unique in a way. It is written by a man who happened not only to fight the Nazis during the Second World War, but also to resist attempts to heroize them in our time. To change the machine gun on the pen he was forced to trample justice and memory. Vasily Makarovich Kononov is a former commander of a guerrilla platoon, unfairly accused by the Latvian authorities of war crimes. Objective reader will certainly come to the belief that the indomitable veteran of the Great Patriotic War, recently left us, at the end of his life once again triumphed over the sinister enemy.
