My great-grandfather Lobanov Mikhail Arkhipovich was born in 1925. He went to the front at 17. On the front was an ordinary soldier. In one battle he lost his leg by an artillery shell, but he's bleeding, continued to fight. For courage he was awarded the medal "For courage". After the war he returned home and ,despite the fact that I was without legs, a lot of work. Great-grandfather died in 1970. I am very proud of my grandfather!
