The old woman on the train told him that she saw a fight on the outskirts of the city. He got off the train and went looking for his son’s grave. He settled nearby and decided to make a monument to the soldier who died here. But one day the military arrived, and it turned out that this was not the grave of his son, but someone's father. He went looking again. The military enlistment office pointed him to the village of Berezhki, where a Komsomol ticket pierced by a bullet was found. The name and patronymic matched, and only three letters remained from the surname. He came across this new grave with a woman, and again it turned out that the name of the one who lies there is only a stranger. He placed a monument on someone else’s grave and moved on. Passing some railway station, he met with a colleague of his son, and he stunned him - they say, a traitor your son, surrendered. For a long time they found out what and how, until they came to the conclusion that another person covered himself with his name. My father cried with joy and went on the road again. So he travels around the earth, looking for the grave of his son, and puts monuments to the dead. close
