меня очень зацепило фото одного из защитников крепости,...

I was very hooked by a photo of one of the defenders of the fortress, I googled for a long time and found some scraps only, but found it! Petr Nikitovich Kochanenkov became the commandant of the Oreshek fortress, after the war (he survived!) he worked as a teacher in the "eaglet" school, was engaged in track and field athletics with the children. died the year I was born and was cremated in St. Petersburg. I found only a few mentions of him, but they are unusually difficult to read. I don’t know how bright a person you have to be to write about you THIS. one of them can be found at the bottom of this page.
he became commander of a naval battery at age 24.
