We often hear that a person has accomplished a feat. What is a feat? This is when they save from fire, or drowning from water, maybe an old man from hunger, after all, different feats. And what a great feat was accomplished by the participant of the Great Patriotic War Andrey Vasilyevich Dubinin? Very simple - he survived, having defeated fascism, and remained a real person.
Dubinin Andrei Vasilyevich was born on November 30, 1916 in the village of Ottoman of the Stavropol Territory. He was called to the front in March 1943. He began his combat career with service in the 41st Guards Separate Air Defense Division (Guards Anti-Aircraft Battery), which was part of the 6th Guards Cavalry Grodno Order of Lenin Red Banner Orders of Suvorov Kutuzov and the Red Star Division.

For the exemplary performance of the combat missions of the command and the valor and courage shown at the same time, she was awarded the Order of Suvorov, 2nd degree in December 1943.
The division was especially successful in the Belorussian offensive operation of 1944 as part of a cavalry-mechanized group under the command of Lieutenant General N. S. Oslikovsky, which was part of the 3rd Belorussian and, from July 14, the 2nd Belorussian Front. For 36 days, the guards-cavalrymen fought 770 km and, together with other formations and units, liberated 268 settlements (including the cities of Molodechno, Lida, Grodno), destroyed over 5 thousand soldiers and officers, a large number of enemy military equipment, captured many trophies.

Andrei Vasilievich completed his military career on November 11, 1945 with the rank of senior lieutenant of the veterinary service.

But having “served”, as he said, a short time, Andrei Vasilyevich decided to continue his service as a veterinarian at the Bolshevik state farm in the Ipatovsky district. He spoke little about the war, more about his post-war life, but what he managed to learn from him was enough to feel the pain and horror of the war, the soldier’s great desire to survive and live on. For him, the slogan "For the Motherland, for Stalin!" helped to survive in difficult combat situations. The last years of his life, as he was remembered, he wore a military uniform even at home, but he did not remember the war.
