Hallo Gents,

Could some of our more informed members of the Soviet section offer a translation

with regards the person featured in the link, and maybe the words of the song as well??

It is my site about the friend of my father- Bogdanov Aleksandr Petrovich. He perished in Afghanistan in 1984 in a province Urgun. He rescued more than 500 persons from death in surroundings an enemy, but perished. Even when he was mortally scotched, he had continued a fight. When cartridges and grenades ended - battled in hand-to-hand. With him did not could will manage and pinned bayonets. Not able to take him in a captivity.

He was a remarkable and kind man!!!!

Thank you to you for interest to the site. I am very surprised
