What we know about the heroism Vlasenko?
Vlasenko NICHOLAS Polikarpovich
13:10:2010 city
History feat in Mtsensk Hero Vlasenko Nikolay Polikarpovich well known on the book Makashov AI "At the heart of Russia." In the south-western outskirts of the city, a small landing at the river, were "Катюши", установки реактивных миномётов. Личный состав расчётов их погиб в бою. Взвод Власенко пробился к установкам и расстрелял "Катюши". При выходе from the battle, fighting off chasing the enemy, Vlasenko caused the fire itself. Some sources claim that the NP Vlasenko caused a fire to themselves because of inability to perform the task.
In his book "The Battle of Orel," EE Schekotihin on the basis of the detected them in the archives of the German reports of enemy wrote on Mtsensk: "At the heart of the city captured intact, two batteries," Katyusha "and three anti-aircraft guns." On the next page the book shows a photograph of the captured "safe and sound" of one installation of BM-13-16, the vehicle frame which suspiciously tilted forward. That the whole objective, is an evil in our city, information.
In 1985, when installed the monument in a square tank, my father told me about a wrecked Soviet tanks that have long remained standing after the war, until 1947 they had not been cleaned. One of them was about the first school, the other in front of the former Code of Criminal Procedure (now there's a commercial organization) and the third was in a park Pioneers (now Park of Glory).
So, two tank platoons Vlasenko broke through to the plants. Why, then, sounded the call fire on yourself? The fact is that before the war and in 1941-42-m respectively at the Soviet tanks radios were only commander. This means that to call the fire itself can only with the commander's tank, ie, tank Vlasenko, a study calling the fire inability to fulfill a mission to destroy plants suggests that the tank standing at the first school, and there is a tank Vlasenko.
location of the destroyed tank says that they are grouped along the road and to them, therefore, are not installation, and entrance into the city of the enemy convoy. It was under the Mtsensk become accustomed to the tank crews battle tactics, only now to mask BEFORE in ambush tanks were not used the hills and woodland areas, and city buildings. Supposed to fire and maneuver to cut off the colonies from the river, after which the action ambushes to dismember and destroy it by stopping the enemy, and possibly throw it over a river. In this case, the distance (three miles) was sufficient to volley of mortars. Apparently, that's how it was supposed to act. After the platoon into battle waged listeners adjunct (graduate student in civil terms) Military-Political Academy, the Hero of the Soviet Union, which awarded for bravery and heroism in battle tactically held for assault on three bunkers of the Mannerheim Line by Tank Battalion, whose command he took over .. His task was not shooting facilities, and the defeat of the enemy columns.
Makashov AI, gave in his book a description of the battle for the destruction of facilities, was a bona fide journalist. He carefully collected any evidence to working on the topic. In contradiction with the description of the battle to destroy the installations Makashov AI in the book "At the heart of Russia" quotes from the letter of Lieutenant-General KL Sorokin, Commissioner 1 State Committee: "it myself (Vlasenko - IM) act - to voluntarily go into battle to free his comrades from the environment (emphasis mine - IM) is a feat worthy of a Hero ... "Free from the environment comrades - such was the task for the senior political officer Vlasenko. Superior enemy forces are not given the opportunity to perform this task. Then, to fight off the Germans settle, Vlasenko and caused the fire itself (only for themselves but not by default), hoping artillery fire damage the enemy columns and mortar to give at least some opportunity to break out of encirclement.
The photo in the book Schekotihina shows the battle of the machine BM-13-16. Now we know that by installing a cab driver was 50-tikilogrammovy charge, designed to undermine her. It is also known that there was an order to eliminate the installation by detonating the charge at the threat of capture by the enemy. In the case of Mtsensk, this threat was more than real, the battle with the enemy mortars calculations were not at a distance of five miles (range missiles), and in direct contact. However, considering this situation, we think in terms of 1943, when the plant was a lot of system and their treatment has already been worked out. In 1941, the year that that this "piece of iron" is a formidable weapon known only to those who have seen firsthand its application. For all other secret weapon was a secret.
Finally, we now know that the drawer with the charge to undermine the installation of the experimental machine BM-13-16 (as of Mtsensk), constituting the first battery of Captain Flerov, was not behind the cab, and on the steps of a cabin. When transferring into production, this feature ekcperimentalnoy design was, of course, kept - in fact had a secret weapon and accurately replicated. These installations were completed and formed in August 1941 the first eight divisions of Katyusha rockets, two of which were under the Mtsensk. Now it becomes more understandable story capture "intact" one installation BM-13-16 "Katyusha".
During the break the enemy in the city on streets leading to the crossing, was cut off a group of troops, including installation and rocket mortars. She took the fight. Her aid was sent to smaller group (platoon) Vlasenko. The forces were unequal and the group were killed. However, the mortar had to perform conditions of secrecy - they have undermined the installation. Because of the design features an explosion had destroyed the front part of the cab (hence the picture vehicle frame and leaned forward, although all probably think that because of the nominated jacks), and the warhead was damaged partially. Remains только добавить, что в связи с секретностью сколько-нибудь толковые инструкции и приказ уничтожать установку при угрозе её захвата как приказ (а не пожелание constructors), probably came in 1942, already during the formation of no divisions, regiments and mortar rocket mortars, which became the Guards for the contribution to the defeat of the enemy of their predecessors - the divisions, when the units were already occupied. The basis for these changes (and the organization, and design) is bitter experience of 1941 years. Therefore we can not claim to the soldiers of 1941 - and our city, too. They have until the end of their duty.
