Zvezda plenitelnogo schastya

In summer 1944 Red Army troops reached

western frontier of the Soviet Union.

Looks like they've gone through.

I am sure they have made it.

Marchenko never fails

Yes. Comrade lieutenant,

"first" will be talking to you.

Listening, comrade "first".

How is it, Travkin?

Has Marchenko gone through?

Not yet.

But is everything quiet?

Everything is quiet for now.

Are you ready to cover the group's retreat,

if you see red flare?

Yes.

So, the Germans are quiet, aren't they?

What's your name?

Private signaller, Simakova.

How do your mom and dad call you?

Katia.

Have you been long on the front line?

It's my first day.

You are so beautiful, Katia.

Your hand.

My name is Andrei.

Captain Barashkin.

From the headquarters.

See you later, Katia.

Lida!

Lida!

I am here.

I am here, mom.

Look, I found a doll.

Mommy, mommy.

Calm down; I am here with you.

Step aside.

There's no tourniquet.

Bring the belt.

I went out; and it just blasted.

You are lucky; you've survived.

Get the horses back, understand?

Yes.

Inform the troops about the order

of the commander in chief

that the first unit to reach the frontier

will be awarded the

"Hero of the Soviet Union" order.

You understand; we are planning

a major military mission

that will be supervised

by the General headquarters.

Still, you have got no information

about intents of the enemy.

We have some.

We do all we can.

Two weeks have passed.

Two weeks,

and you still don't know much.

Head of corps staff demands

that we send scouts to the enemy rear.

We have already sent.

We have sent two groups.

Comrade colonel, let me report.

Go ahead.

They are still quiet, comrade colonel.

Maybe, they have made it through.

I got the assignment to help you organize

a new raid of scouts to the enemy rear.

I've got none to send.

I've got no more scouts.

Only two are left out of eighteen.

Perhaps, for you, 16 men are not much,

but for me every single counts.

I have some people in the reserve.

You will get some additional personnel.

Thank you for the assistance,

comrade captain.

Good day, girls.

Is there any news?

That is nothing. As long as Mamachkin

is alive, Hitler trembles, got it?

Is she new?

Have you come from another unit,

or right from above?

Let me introduce myself?

Sergeant Mamachkin.

Kostia.

Katia.

Nice to meet you.

You know what, Katia?

You are incredibly lucky

to have met me

Do you know who you

should be friends with in the army?

With you?

With the scouts.

Because scouts are

the best men on the frontline.

And, guess who is the bravest

and the most reckless.

Again, scouts.

And is the guy, you rode with,

also a scout?

Lieutenant Travkin? Yes.

You won't find anyone like him

in the whole Red Army.

He always runs around near the front line,

studying the map, making sketches...

That is just the way he is.

Help yourself;

everything is fresh and tasty.

Good afternoon, comrade lieutenant.

We have a beautiful lady visiting us.

From the communication unit.

Hello.

Where is the food from?

It is a gift from thankful civilians

to heroic Red Army

for freeing them

from the invaders ahead of schedule.

Please, join us. Take a sit.

One day at the observation point,

and let the thankful civilians

have some rest from you.

Yes.

Why do you allow

strangers to the position?

You should not have said it.

She is a good girl.

What did they tell you

at the headquarters?

We have to move out to scout.

How is that?

What do you mean?

We've got no men for that.

You mean, just the two of us will go?

We will have people.

Thank you, brother.

Here they are.

How can they be scouts?

They are only good

to drive mares in supply transport.

The group of three men has arrived

to reinforce the scout platoon.

The head of the group

is sergeant Brazhnikov.

I am commander of the scout platoon,

lieutenant Travkin.

A scout?

Yes, from the first Ukranian.

Good afternoon. I am private Kentakov

from infantry.

And why to a scout platoon?

I can shoot.

So, shoot.

I am a hunter.

Are you also a hunter?

No, I am not.

I am private Bikov.

I know the vicinity very well.

My home is about 30 km from here.

Being in a scout platoon

is not visiting your mommy.

Private Bikov!

I am sorry.

Our sort of man.

Comrade Lieutenant,

I am private Vorobiev.

Let me report.

Go ahead.

Do you need rated sportsmen?

What sport?

Chess.

At ease, private Vorobiev.

I also speak German.

(Speaks German)

"Zaria", "Zaria", come in.

I am "The Earth".

Reply to "The Earth".

Have you really been to Moscow?

Yes, twice.

Is it very beautiful?

Yes, very.

What did you want to be

before the war?

It would have been so great

to be in Moscow right now?

My sister is in Moscow.

She is in conservatorium.

Wow!

Does she sing?

She plays the violin.

What did you want to be?

I don't know yet.

I've just left my secondary school.

Did you volunteer to the front?

Yes, of course, I did.

So, the code for enemy tanks is 49,

For instance,

you need to say tanks are in this area...

You say:
"49 in area 4".

If it is infantry, then...

"21 area 4".

Well done.

The code for the scout group is "Star"

and we will, as always, be "The Earth".

Don't you want to take

a radio operator with you.

Today I got a report

from private Simakova.

She wants to go with you.

What is it for?

We don't need anyone.

We are not going

for a nice walk in park.

OK, try yourself.

"The Earth", come in. I am "Star".

You hear me? Over.

"Star", I am "The Earth".

I can hear you well.

"The Earth", I am "Star". Reply.

"The Earth", can you hear me?

Anick Anick

Here I am, comrade Lieutenant.

How is you leg?

Good enough to dance.

Are you here to stay,

or going somewhere else?

My assignment is to another unit,

but I was late for my train,

and decided to see my unit

and my lieutenant.

A soldier I met on my way

told me you were still here.

You keep eating. They didn't feed

you like that in the hospital, did they?

So, you are going

to the rear of Germans?

Yes.

That is fun thing to do.

And where is Marchenko?

May his memory live forever.

Are you going with us,

or taking your new assignment?

I'd like to stay with you,

comrade lieutenant.

You will just have to inform the division

I have been assigned to

that I am not a deserter.

Surely we will inform them.

I haven't sent it to my mother.

Will you do it for me?

You will do it yourself, comrade lieutenant,

when you return.

Let's jump.

All right.

Let's sit for a while before we go.

There is no decamouflaging sound.

Katia, do you know the scouts are leaving?

Katia, tonight!

The scout group is ready

to cross the front line.

Head of the group

is lieutenant Travkin.

Let's synchronize our watches.

Running fast.

Move one minute back.

By 1:
00 you should be

at the German trenches.

At 1:
00 sharp

artillery will begin bombarding it.

And don't swerve,

or else you will get under my shells.

If by 1:
00 you don't reach it,

come back at once.
