I have been a participant in the Great Patriotic War since the first day. After a short period of time, during which I served as deputy chairman of the military medical commission, I was appointed head of the first medical evacuation department LEC-48 (local evacuation center), which I headed for more than six months. In 1942, due to the increase in the number of deployed evacuation hospitals and, accordingly, the volume of work, the first department began to deal only with the transportation of the wounded and sick, while the organization of medical activities was entrusted to the second medical department. The duties of his chief were entrusted to me, and in this position I remained until the end of the war. The head of the first department was appointed lieutenant colonel of the medical service M. N. Poroikov, who returned from the front due to a wound.
