’“I’m going to work, and you, Tanya, take care of the children.“ We never saw him again’. The son of the Brest Fortress defender

’“I’m going to work, and you, Tanya, take care of the children.“ We never saw him again’. The son of the Brest Fortress defender recalls how his father said goodbye to his family — his pregnant wife and two children. The Syomochkins lived in the Brest Fortress at that time and were among the first to face the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945). The stone was literally melting from the incoming fire. About 150 assault guns shelled the fortress. The story of the Syomochkin family will be included in the upcoming documentary by Dmitry Khrustalev and Ekaterina Kitaitseva about the liberation of Belarus.
