Antonina knowingly took the nickname “machine Gunner”: the ideal for her for many years was Anka, the heroine of the film “Chapaev”, which in real life was the prototype of a young nurse, who at the battle, killed the gunner. Tonya dreamed about military exploits, and life, unfortunately, gave her the opportunity. As soon as war was declared, the girl voluntarily went to the front.

Military life of Antonina began with a tragic battle, she was in Vyazemsky boiler formed during the defense of Moscow in October 1941.

Among the traitors were attributed to all who fought on the side of the red Army, partisans, underground fighters and their relatives. The shooting of the Nazis were sentenced indiscriminately, before the gun often were women and children.

Antonina received an official salary for their work. It’s hard to describe the level of cynicism and brutality with which he shot his countrymen (as a rule, had to kill 27 people, so many places were in the barracks detention). After a burst, she finished off anyone who survived, and then was able to pick up items or shoes with dead bodies. Just on her conscience more than 1500 murders.
