The soul of veterans does not grow old #002
I learned a lot of interesting things about Vasily Mikhailovich from Tamara Petrovna. For example, that he joined the Navy during the war as a volunteer, following the Komsomol draft. Before that, as a 15-year-old boy, he began his career as an electrician at the Metrostroy, and in 1943, as a senior sailor, he joined the party on the Petropavlovsk cruiser, was awarded the Order of the Patriotic War and medals "For the Defense of Leningrad" and "For the Victory over Germany." In addition, I found out that he has been able to take a well-deserved rest for a long time, but still does not want to leave his job, since most of his life is connected with the berths of the Leningrad port.
And more. Although his heart is playing tricks, Kuptsov, as in his youth, does not stand aside from public life — he is Deputy chief of Staff for landscaping, deputy commander of the voluntary People's Militia (DND) of the port, a member of the staff of the DND of the Kirovsky district, chairman of the mutual assistance fund of the port, a freelance criminal investigation officer and, finally, deputy chairman of the Council veterans of the Petropavlovsk cruiser...
I admit, I also have this question: why does Vasily Mikhailovich need all these worries and troubles? I have long earned peace and relaxation through honest, conscientious work, as evidenced by numerous certificates of honor and diplomas of various merits (I counted more than fifty of them!). Here, for example, is a Certificate of Honor from the Ministry of Internal Affairs — "For active participation in ensuring the protection of public order" (in 1988, Vasily Mikhailovich alone, without fear, detained several thieves).
I couldn't resist asking Kuptsov this question.
He replied:
"They'll take my job away from me!" He paused for a moment. "What am I going to do then?" After all, everything that was raised from the ruins by our hands after the war is also mine...
I couldn't help but think about our place, our role on earth, and our relationship to each other... Whatever it is... Do we bring much joy to others? And take the same Vasily Mikhailovich... A person does not spare himself, sometimes at the risk of his life he tries to do everything for society, purifying it, restoring order... But do some responsible employees always meet him halfway?
Let's listen to Vasily Mikhailovich:
— Unfortunately, we have some who don't really care about order and cleanliness. I am referring to the heads of the logistics service. How they launched the territory of the port! Especially in the area of the elevator site, near the workshops... The warehouses are full of dirt, and there are hundreds, if not thousands, of tons of metal!.. Every day, I call Yu. Pantsulai and ask him to put things in order, but he only scares me.: "I'll put your port on starvation rations, I won't give you anything, then you'll find out.".. Well, is this a state approach to business? We have to fight with the heads of 150 different services and organizations. We fine the guilty, of course... But, again, not from their own pocket, but from the state... Is that the case?
