Having looked at the boy, the Communists entrusted Val to be a connected and intelligence officer in their underground organization.

He recognized the location of enemy posts, the order of changing the guard. The day came when Valya accomplished his feat. The roar of the engines became louder - the cars were approaching. The faces of the soldiers were already visible. Sweat flocked from the foreheads half -covered with green helmets. Some soldiers carefully took off the helmets.

The front car caught up with the bushes, behind which the boys hid. Valya stood up, counting to himself seconds. The car drove, an armored car is already against him. Then he rose to his full height and with a cry “Fire! At the same time, explosions were heard on the left and right. Both cars stopped, the front caught fire. The soldiers swiftly jumped to the ground, rushed into the ditch and from there opened a random fire from the machine guns.

Valya did not see this picture. A well -known path, he already fled into the depths of the forest. There was no chase, the Germans were afraid of the partisans.

He washed the dishes, it happened, served the officers in the hall and listened to their conversations. In drunken disputes, the Nazis washed out information that was very interested in the "Nikolaev Center". The officers began to send a quick, smart boy with instructions, and soon they made a messenger at the headquarters.

It could never have occurred to them that the most secret bags were the first to read underground on the turnout ... Together with Shura Kober Vitya, the task was to go through the front line to establish a connection with Moscow. In Moscow, at the headquarters of the partisan movement, they reported the situation and talked about what they watched on the way. Returning to Nikolaev, the guys delivered to the underground the radio transmitter, explosives, weapons.

And again, the struggle without fear and hesitation. Among them are two boys - Shura Kobert and Vitya Khomenko. They lived by heroes and died like heroes.

The name of the young hero named their pioneering detachment of the fifth graders of the Rostov school. It bears his name and one of Rostov's streets. The song “Vitya Cherevichkin lived in Rostov, the enemy rushed to Rostov in Rostov, and he managed to occupy the city in Rostov.

A difficult time has come. Vitya saw a glow of fires, heard shooting in the city, knew that the Nazis were robbing and shooting Soviet people. He could answer all this in one word: “Fight! Once the boy saw that the SS men would drive the tenants from a large building. Telephone wires stretched there. Shiny cars drove up one after another. Called the liaisonous ones were continuously scurried from the shore of the Don.

Soon he learned that large fascist formations were concentrated in the area of ​​the Red Aksai plant.Vitya decided at all costs to establish a connection with the Soviet troops. They stood in Bataysk, on the other side of the Don. But how to do it? Even before the start of the war, Vitya Cherevichkin, like many of his peers, loved to drive pigeons. The family had relatives in Bataisk, and pigeons, instead of postmen.

Vitya Cherevichkin often transferred news from Rostov in Bataisk. From time to time, Soviet planes appeared over the city. And Vitya decided to show them the location of the fascist headquarters. When the engine buzzed in the sky, the boy released pigeons above the headquarters. But the pilot either did not notice his signals, or did not understand. The plane disappeared.

Then the young intelligence officer wrote a note with important messages, tied it to the paw of a red -haired dove and threw his favorite up: - Fly in Bataysk! .. Vitya was worried. But what if the dove does not reach? Maybe there are no more relatives in Bataisk? Who will transmit his report to the Soviet command? As soon as the Soviet plane appeared over Rostov again, the pigeons rose once again and began to spin over the fascist headquarters.

The pilot led the plane very low. Vitya began to vigorously give signals with his hands. Suddenly someone grabbed his shoulder. The boy noticed a fascist officer. Vitya tried to break free, but a soldier ran from somewhere. The young hero was taken to the German headquarters. Where are the partisans? .. Vitya beat, stomped with their feet, but no torture could break his will. He was silent.

And in the evening the teenager was led towards the Don.
