Our heroes

On May 1, 1946, in Zhitomir, the wedding of Major Leonid Rosenberg and his second cousin Firochka took place at home.
 
All surviving members of the extended family were present - 14 people. The Nazis shot Leonid’s mother in 1941, and shot his little sister in her crib. The 14-year-old brother died in a partisan detachment. Fira’s father died in April 1944 in Poland, and her brother died. Two uncles did not return from the war.
And now, in our days, in 2024, Leonid Borisovich approaches his beloved and tells her something for a long time, then bends down and kisses her. And so every day for six years. Stroke. She lies there with her eyes wide open, she is 98 years old, and only G-d knows what she is thinking and what she is hearing. Leonid Borisovich will be 103 in September. I would like to note that special children were raised in the Rosenberg family, apparently, such happiness must be earned from the Almighty. This is an example to many children. They spend every day with their father, who is taken to the ocean shore to get some fresh air.
“We didn’t have long-livers in our family. My dad’s grandfather sailed to America in 1918. After 1945, all connections of the big family were lost. When I arrived in 1989, I found everyone. My dad’s and mom’s wonderful American cousins were very supportive at the initial stage, unfortunately, they are no longer with us,” said his son Alexander Rosenberg.
Leonid Borisovich's memory is amazing. Yesterday he talked about defending his diploma “Defense of the Rifle Corps on a Broad Front” at the Academy. Frunze in 1956. He remembers all the names of his friends at the front, a lot of events. Lieutenant Colonel Rosenberg entered the Academy the second time, when Stalin died. At the parade in Moscow, the Academy named after. Frunze always goes first. Rosenberg walked in the front row as a guide, for his bearing and awards were unmatched. He was the foreman of a course of 500 people. On May 9, 1955, at the celebration of the 10th anniversary of the Victory, Rosenberg was deputy chief of the honor guard at the Victory Banner. And this was the second meeting with the Banner. The first occurred on May 4, 1945, when he ascended the Reichstag. In December 2023, Netflix released the 6-part documentary film “World War II: On the Front Lines.” It contains 2 episodes about Leonid Rosenberg, how he fought, how he took revenge for the death of his family, how he was one of the first to break through to Berlin.
“My father met the war on the Belarusian-Polish border on June 22 with the rank of lieutenant. The commander of the artillery battery Rosenberg, while on reconnaissance, was seriously wounded on the third day of the war. He was saved by his horse, which carried him from the battlefield.
But the most incredible thing at the front was the meeting with my father. Leonid was looking for his father throughout the war. They haven't seen each other since 1939. Boris Rosenberg fought in Finland (and in the 20s he was an adjutant to Bozhenko, the Shchorsovsky commander). And then the father found his father in the neighboring regiment. Two captains met. And then Leonid learned about the death of his mother, sister and brother.
I also often remember 9 years of service in Lugansk. At military parades, my father walked in front with the division banner. There was no more decorated officer in 20 regiments. But in Kyiv at the army headquarters there was an unambiguous reaction to the name Rosenberg; they did not give the rank of colonel,” said Alexander Rosenberg.
Once in New York, Leonid Borisovich Rosenberg plunged into veteran activities. Under his leadership, the American Association of Disabled Persons and Veterans of World War II was organized. 30 years ago there were 2800 people. Now there are only a few dozen left.
On May 9, veterans who are able will gather together to commemorate and reminisce, enjoy life, and talk about themselves. They need very little - a little attention, respect. They fought for their homeland. They saved the world from fascism. They, those who remained - Russians, Jews, Ukrainians, Uzbeks, Georgians, Americans, British, French - all fought against a common enemy for THEIR HOMELAND. AND WE WON. Let's bow to them.
It is a great honor for me to know personally and write about our veterans and board members of the Association of Disabled and Veterans of World War II. Anna Lagunova has been making films and recording memories of veterans and Holocaust survivors since school age, which can be viewed on YouTube.

A review of a powerful clairvoyant grandmother. She really helped.

We had constant conflicts in our family: I'd lose my temper, my husband would, and the kids would be capricious for no reason. I felt like something was weighing on us, like a lot of negativity had built up in the house. I'd like to recommend Elizaveta Andreyevna, because after her help, the house felt brighter. She works very delicately, without unnecessary words, but I felt the results immediately—communication became easier, we started laughing more, yelling less, and that heavy energy disappeared. It felt like the house had finally become a home, not a place where people only argue. Contact: +380661542367.
 

I can highly recommend Andriya to all +380932169225

I have been wondering about this process for a long time, but my story, perhaps, can help someone. The man and I were over ten rocks at a time, wooing our daughter, planning for the next day. And then it’s just fun. No explanation, no scandals. Just by moving to another woman. It was such a strong blow that I almost fainted. Donka fed steadily, that’s all, but I didn’t know what the truth was. My friends wanted to let me go, to find the best. But I knew that we were one and the same, and I didn’t want to just give up. On my way out, I spent time reading about Andriy’s molfar. I wrote to the number +380932169225 on Viber and asked for a consultation. At the hour of prayer, Andriy did not eat anything. I myself described the circumstances that led to the rupture, and also named some special moments that I didn’t tell anyone about. This impressed me and transformed me into my unique gift. It's time for magical rituals to renew the bond between me and my boyfriend. You will also need to give me specific instructions about what you need to do at home. A week and a decade have passed. And then there’s a ding. A man standing in front of the door with a bouquet of flowers. There has been destruction and torment. Having said that Kohati never blamed me, but life without us was hell. He turned around. I don’t know how it’s said, but it’s said like it’s an old man. Exactly what we discussed with Andriy. Its authenticity, sensitivity and, first of all, the real power of its magical gift, deserve trust and respect. I can highly recommend Andriy to everyone.
 

He left a month before the wedding...

We were getting ready for the wedding. The hall was booked, the dress was hanging on the closet, the rings were in the box. And a month before the big day, he said, "I'm not sure. I'm leaving." I thought it was a prank. Or stress. But no. He left. To his ex. I stood by the window with the wedding ring in my hand and didn't understand - how? Why? For what? Everyone said, "Then it's not yours." But I knew - it was mine. It was just as if he had lost himself. Lily became a light in the darkness for me. She said, "Your destiny was stolen. But until he gets married, everything can be returned." We performed a ritual for 7 nights. I read spells, cried, fell asleep with his photo. On the 8th day, he wrote, "I can't live without you. Forgive me. I was blind." And a week later, he knelt down and asked me to marry him again. The wedding took place. Later. But for love. Lily, you were there at the most terrible moment of my life. I pray for you. Thank you. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433
 

Help of a clairvoyant real review

I had problems on almost all fronts: money was not staying, my health was poor, relationships were falling apart. I was tired, anxious, and had a feeling that something was heavy on me. I decided to contact Maria. She immediately saw that I had negativity on me and did a strong cleansing. After several sessions, I felt a real lightness, as if a burden had been lifted from my shoulders. Then she performed rituals to open a money channel - and I started receiving job offers, new clients appeared. She works with white magic and prayers - no danger, only light and goodness. I am very grateful to Maria for returning my energy and hope. Here is her number if you want to contact her: +18473130212.
