In fierce battles, many are dying, many are injured, such as, for example, Art. Lieutenant Lushnikov, Art. Sergeants Dmitry Stroganov and Dmitry Chernob.

Soon over the Gestapo watered the red win flag. Starts the assault of the Imperial Office - the Palace of Hitler, or as it also called his fascists - a small Reichstag. In the northern part of the imperial office there was a huge thick-walled armored huntler bunker. The fight against the Gestapovs here is the battalong of Captain Shapovalov. The bunker is grisged and pawing from machine guns and machine guns. And here the gun comes into account - SERZHANTA SORZHOVYA I.P. Tymoshenko. She metrates the machine guns and machine gunners.

This is how Marshal G.K. writes about this moment. Zhukov: "On the evening of May 1, 301th and 248th rifle divisions of 5 shock army led the last fight For imperial office. The fight on the approaches and within this building was particularly fierce.

Davydov and F. Shapovalov, she licked the Red Banner over the Imperial Office. After the capture of the imperial office, her commandant was appointed deputy commander of the 301th S.D. Colonel V.E.

We must remember that the commander of the 1050th regiment was Lieutenant Colonel of Gumirov. It was he who reported to the commander of Division Antonov V.S .: "The Imperial Office was taken - the rate of Hitler."

Captain Shapovalov F.K. - Commander of the 2nd Art. Battalion 1050th S.D. - on the direction of the commander of the division, the emblem of fascist Germany is removed in the parade hall and all the coat of arms in the Imperial Office. The Adolf Hitler's Standard is gathered here, the Rommel's female Feldmarshal and the Berlin map, which lay on the table in the office of the Fuhrer. The Fuhrera Standard was the first to be thrown to the foot of the mausoleum at the Victory Parade.

Marshal of the Soviet Union G.K. gave a high assessment of combat actions. Zhukov: "The 5th shock army, leading fierce battles, continued to successfully move towards the center of Berlin, to the Alexanderplatz Square, to the Palace of Kaizer Wilhelm, Berlin Town Hall and the Imperial Office. Given the most successful promotion of the 5th shock army, as well as the particularly prominent personal qualities of its commander of the hero of the Soviet Union, Colonel-General I.E. Berzarina, April 24, the command appointed it to the first Soviet commandant and the head of the Soviet garrison of Berlin. "

The warriors of the 301th rifle Donetsk Order of Suvorov II degree of division in the struggle for the liberation of the birthplace were covered with disadvantaged glory.

Hundreds of them did not wait for the joyful day of victory. Not all the heroic acts of officers and soldiers are still known to us.

The price of their own lives won the world. And our people lowly bow the head in front of the grave of an unknown soldier.

We simply have no idea that some of the youth can not know about the heroic affairs of our warriors, to seek and open their immortal feats - the task of each honest person.

The division of Colonel Antonov arrived at Magnushevsky bridgehead before the beginning of the taste-Oder operation. Antonov took a bold decision to break through the enemy defense, organized the interaction of the delivery of troops, the supply of ammunition, fuel and food, repair of transport and military equipment, training personnel to the upcoming actions. There were a lot of worries from the division commander, but he paid special attention to the study of the enemy.

The Nazis had a deeply echelonized defense at the springride with the presence of fighters and sucks, a thick network of trenches and moves of the message. Intelligence set the presence of an advanced position in the bandwidth. The enemy expect to introduce our command to misleading about the inscription of the front edge of the main defense strip, to force our troops to strike at an empty place. Antonov solved the idea of \u200b\u200bthe enemy and decided to overcome him. Before the beginning of the offensive on his order, advanced battalions decisively attacked the enemy and captured an advanced position. The Hitler's command believed that the offensive of our parts was exhausted.

Meanwhile, on January 14, 1945, a powerful onset of troops of the 1st Belarusian Front began. Division Antonova struck the main direction.

From Stalino to Dnipro.

September 28, 1943 Parts of the Division approached the Rube region Heidelberg, Anderberg, Green Guy. Here, the opponent has created a strong fortified defense in advance: anti-tank Rips, wire barriers, mine fields, satuned by artillery defense. Heidelberg was a real fortress with zotes, blocks in 12 sinks, etc.

At 5.00 on September 28, part of the division occupied the initial position for the attack at 1.5 km of Sev. Meteidelberg. The main blow was applied to the southeastern outskirts of Heidelberg. The battle was very cruel. The infantry moved behind the fire shaft of artillery, with the support of aviation. In a hand-to-hand fight, the enemy was destroyed, Heidelberg was busy. After the capture of Heidelberg, the division quickly moved forward, knocking the opponent's surgear. Stubborn battles unfolded for a shirt, south of Nikopol's bridgehead. The task was to take a shirt, go to the Dniester.

The fierce battles turned over the height of 81.9 battles walked with breaks for three months. The Germans took strong counterattacks.

In early February 1944, when the army troops were eliminated by Nikopol, the division went into a decisive offensive.

On July 19, 1941, the State Defense Committee of the USSR adopted Resolution No. Gko-207ss "On the formation of new divisions".

According to this decree, 301SD was formed in HVO in Mirgorod - by 24.07.41

From the commanding of the command of Yuzn 4 rifle (289, 301 , 284, 297) and 2 cavalry (34 and 37) divisions Despite the fact that the readiness of the expired is not ready.

Armament of rifle divisions automatics is incomplete. 301 and 284 divisions have no notifications when and from where engineering property will be obtained from. The property of communication in the abbreviated norm is only 27.7 sent from Moscow and will come to the destination no earlier. Uniforms: In all divisions there are no douse bags, towels, spheres, steel helmets, cloak tents, butters (except 301 divisions in which koteles lack 3729 pieces), waist belts, grocery bags. Hiking kitchens for each division lack from 16 to 25 pieces.

I consider it necessary to report that the timing of the formation established by General Staffturned out to be unreal, the central contents did not make anything in order to ensure the divisions of the material part and the property laid on the tablel.

I ask for your interference in the material support and weapons of the formed divisions in the Kharkov and Odessa military districts.

Already on August 3, according to the Directive, the Commander-in-Chief of the Forces of the South-Western Direction S.M. It was included in the 26th of the battles on the Kanevsky bridgehead. On the same day, the division acted as a concentration area.

The next day, 26a, which included 301 SD, received an order to change the direction of the movement of the mobile group, and instead of the onset of the south, to hit Rzhyschev to destroy the Kanevian group of the Germans. As a result of the fighting per day, the 97th Infantry Division with one regiment of 301 SD came to with. Bobrica, and the remaining parts of the 301 SD defended the East Coast of the Dnieper at the turn of Yanishki - Leplya.

After the failed attempt at the 26th army, defeat the Kanevsk-Rizhchevskaya group of the enemy, 301 SD until August 15 occupied defense at the front of Yanishki - Kozintsy - Leplyavo. The 15th of the division received an order by passing the position to other parts, to replicate north to the caterpillar site - Andrushi.

On September 11, 301, the CD changed parts of the 7th motorized rifle division and took the defense at the front of the prospect - Rudyakov - Yashniki - Andrushi. Four days later, the Germans managed to close the ring around the 5th, 21st, 26th and 37 armies of YUZF. On the evening of September 14, 1TG and 2 TG of the enemy were connected in the area of \u200b\u200bLochwitz by closed the ring of the environment around the main forces of the UZF.

On September 18, the Commander of Yuzf Gen Colonel Kirponos ordered all surrounded armies to break into the east.

At the beginning of the Great Patriotic War with fascist Germany, the 6th Rifle division was stationed in Brest-Litovsk. Three small rifle regiment, all special individual battalions and divisions, with the exception of the 246th separate anti-aircraft division (which was placed in the northern town) and the 131th light artpol, were located in the fortress. In the same place or near the fortress, the majority of these parts are also located in the homes of these parts and only the 204th Gobichnaya artpolk was in the southern town.

In the central part of the fortress there were two rifle regiments, an ORB, OSCE, Medicalbat and Autoba / except for other parts of the 42th CD /, and the output was one. The 125th rifle regiment, PTO division and closer to the Bug of the 131rd artpol, were located behind the rubbish channel. In the fortress, parts of the 42nd Rifle Division were also placed.

By this time, in every rifle shelf, one battalion was thrown onto the state border for the production of defensive work on strengthening strengthening.

On June 22, 1941, at 4 o'clock in the morning, a hurricane fire on the barracks was opened first in the fortress and homes, and on the outputs from the barracks in the central part of the fortress, as well as on the bridges and entrance gates of the fortress.

This terrible treacherous artillery raid has been confused and panic among the Red Army composition, while the committee who was attacked himself in houses was partially destroyed, the surviving part of the Komostava could not penetrate the barracks due to a strong barrier fire set on the bridge in the central part of the fortress and At the entrance goal.

As a result, the Red Army and the younger committee without managing the command of the command composition, dressed and dressed, groups and alone came out of the fortress overcoming the bypass canal, p. Muchotovets and the shaft of the fortress, under the fire of Art. machine guns, artillery and mortar fire.
Losses to take into account there was no possibility, since the scattered parts of the division were mixed with the scattered parts of the 42nd SD, and many could not get to the prefabricated place, because at about 6 o'clock it was already concentrated by Artogon.

The battalions of rifle regiments, located on the border, were also subjected to artogne and as a result, only single fighters and commanders managed to go out, the rest were destroyed on the site sleeping.
The 2nd division of the 131th AP for a short time was destroyed by arthogne focused on a direct vendor.

The battery of the 246th Odas, who stood at the OP near the zheetchnaya resisted for a long time, but after repeated raids of large groups of aircraft was destroyed.
Only the 204th HAP (since the fire was opened later in the south town) got up on the OP in the Art Park Stark area, opened fire on the enemy artillery, forcing him to silence some of his batteries for a while, after which he was exposed to a fire fleece with the OP and moved to the direction Zhabinka.

Along the way of movement of the 204th, HAP was repeatedly subjected to an air attack. Due to the lack of fuel and under the influence of aviation, the matching of artillery and the Tractor of the second and third division was destroyed and only the first division on horse rod was safely arrived in Kobrin, and in the morning 23.6 took part in the fight on the defense of this city. There arrived at 2 o'clock in the night of 23.6 together with the first battalion of the 84th Captain Captain Olshevsky, the first division of the 131st APs participating 23.6 in the defense of Kobrin.
The command of the division and the headquarters together with the Commowner parts were taken to collect fragmented groups and individual redarmeys at the division collection point and on the roads that were brought to combat readiness and began to occupy defense in the sands of 4 km. Barst.

As a result of these events, three groups were created: the group of the commander of the division of the Colonel Popsu-Shapko, with the head of the headquarters by Colonel Ignatov and the Regiment Commissioner Butin. The group of Deputy Commander of the Colonel Division of the Colonel Ostashenko with the head of the Political Council by the Regiment Commissioner Pimenov and the commander of the 125th joint venture by Lieutenant Colonel Berkov and the group of the commander of the 333rd joint venture of Colonel Matveev. These groups, retreating under the opponent's onslaught, occupying a number of consecutive defensive frontiers, opened in the general direction to Zhabin and further on Kobrin, while there were no relationships between groups, therefore the actions of the groups were scattered. In the future, the Ostashenko detachment is 7 km north of the Kobrin, which were joined by the Kobryz-Berezovsky garrison, who left Kobrin, so that there were already about 2,000 people in the detachment, who began to break into braids with battles. Then the detachment was combined with the division of Colonel Kudürova and the combined forces of about 5,000 people continued to fight with a grouping of the enemy who broke into Kosos.
Conclusion: Division, which lost machine guns, mortars, fireprises, part of artillery and other property and equipment and armament of a whole body during a waste from the city of Brest- Litovsk. Resistance turned out to be three groups that did not have the relationship between themselves and retreating in various directions.

The division was not equipped with a fully human composition did not have automatic weapons (machine guns), mortars, regimental and division artillery, without means of communication and intelligence.

At 24.00 14.7, by order of the commander of the 4th Army, two detachments are distinguished from the division: the first force in the rifle regiment, the second - in the battalion, and under the general command of the division commander are directed to the defense of the R.

In the absence of any artillery in the division, disrupt the work on the construction of the bridge, the opponent of the division part of the division could not. Ruzhino-machine-gun fire opened by our parts was immediately suppressed by the cannon and machine-gun fire enemy tanks. After the restoration of the bridge, the motometgroup crossed over the river and delving on 300-400 meters to the Defense area of \u200b\u200bthe 333rd joint venture opened random fire in the woods occupied by our parts.
