GYPSY IN THE SECOND WORLD. FOR WHAT HITLER HATED THEM AND ORDERED TO DESTROY

Gypsies were sent to practically all the troops: infantry, cavalry, aviation, reconnaissance, artillery, front-line medicine. The story of the gypsy Viktor Belyakov, who fought on the Western Front and destroyed many fascists with well-aimed shots, is noteworthy. In the summer of 1942, the commander of the regiment reported to General Andrey StuchEnko: “A month has not left the front line, he has fifty Fritzes on his account. He doesn’t want to leave until he hits a hundred. He has no father, his mother works at the RomEn theater. " On the initiative of the general, Belyakov was awarded the Order of the Red Star. By July 1943, Victor had 206 killed Nazis on his personal account. At the rally of snipers, Belyakov suggested to his colleagues how to lure the enemy out of cover: Having noticed the accumulation of Germans, I ask the command to open mortar fire on the enemy's trenches. The Nazis in fright begin to jump out of the trenches and fall into my sight, Viktor told his colleagues. The gypsy sniper went through the entire war and survived. He was awarded medals "For Courage" and "For Military Merit". In 1968, after the publication of the book of memoirs by General StuchEnko, the staff of the RomEn theater found Viktor Belyakov in the Moscow region and invited him to a meeting with the theater troupe.
It is difficult to calculate how many Roma were awarded orders and medals during the Great Patriotic War, because many of them were listed as Tatars, Ukrainians, Moldovans or Russians in the lists of military units and passports. Only one Hero of the Soviet Union had a record of "gypsies" in the questionnaire - this is the Marine Corpsman Timofey Ilyich ProkOfiev, who received the title posthumously. Despite the reservation at the place of work, Timofey volunteered for the front in 1942 after the death of his brother. As part of the troops of the Black Sea Fleet, he defended Malaya Zemlya, captured the Kerch bridgehead, was twice seriously wounded, but refused to leave his unit and go to the hospital. During the Odessa operation on March 26, 1944, a Soviet landing was made in Nikolayev. ProkOfiev, among 67 fighters, repelled 18 enemy attacks within two days. The landing killed about 700 fascists. Prokofiev fired at enemies with a machine gun. He was fatally wounded in the head by a sniper. When two fascists approached him, the dying sailor gathered his strength and shot them in the last round. Other Gypsies also returned with orders from the fronts of the Great Patriotic War: pilots Murachkovsky, artilleryman Massalsky, tanker Menshikov.
Gypsy woman Polya Morazevskaya fought in a partisan detachment in the Smolensk forests. A very young girl walked the roads and villages with a baby in her arms - the image of a young mother was supposed to lull the suspicions of the Nazis. Fields collected information on the number and movements of German troops. She was captured by the Nazis and, together with her child, was burned alive in the furnace of a factory stove. The gypsies fought against the Nazis not only on the territory of the USSR. The French gypsy Armand Stenger commanded a detachment of partisans, and after the landing of the allies, he joined them in Normandy. He was not only awarded the Orders of France and Britain, but also headed the Roma Association after the war. Many Roma from Croatia and Serbia joined the People's Liberation Front guerrilla movement. The Albanian Gypsy underground worker KhazAni Brahim carried out a successful sabotage by blowing up a German warehouse with large supplies of fuel and military vehicles. In the German concentration camp Plashov near Krakow, four gypsy prisoners from the USSR were hanged by the Nazis for killing camp employees, they neutralized and killed three cruel sadistic wardens ..
Surprisingly, gypsies sometimes fought on the side of the Third Reich. German boxing champion Johann Tollmann was sterilized in 1938 and then drafted into the German army. After being wounded in 1941, TrOhlmann ends up in a concentration camp, where SS men practice strikes on him. In February 1943, at one of the training sessions, he was killed. Hungarian gypsy Gyorgy Tsifra was drafted to the German front in 1942 - first into the infantry, then into the tank. The guy did not want to fight for those who destroy his fellow tribesmen, and soon deserted. After the war, Tsifra became a famous pianist.
That's all for me. Thanks for watching!
