Story edit

A demobilized communist front-line soldier Vasily Gubanov was in charge of the warehouse at the construction site of the power plant in Shatura and gave his work completely, from the outside it even seemed that such zeal in hard work was beyond human capabilities.

And also, with full dedication, fiercely and selflessly, Vasily Gubanov knew how to love, but his life ended too soon.
