      There were already 46 vessels in the UTF. The newspaper Kaliningrad Pravda wrote in October 1948: “… a large socialist industry is being created in the place of small artisanal fisheries.” It’s all true. But in fairness it is necessary to say about those difficult living conditions and work of fishermen in those hungry post-war years in the village of Pioneersk.

      In 1947, Belov Ivan Antonovich was the secretary of the party bureau of the party organization. He was born in 1903, a secondary education, a member of the Communist Party since August 1937. He was later awarded the Medal for Valiant Work. And in the spring of 1949, having been approved by the 8th session of the Pioneersk Village Council of Workers, Chairman of the Council of Belov Ivan Antonovich assume a documents from the former Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Pioneersk Village Council of Labour Deputies since 1947 Alexandre Filimonikhina.

      In their acceptance and surrender act of March 31, 1949, in the section “Housing and Utilities” read: “On the balance of housing and utilities of the Village Council there are 75 houses with a residential area of 8000 square meters. and a useful area of 750 square meters. employed for warehouses and retail outlets (shops, diners, teahouses). The state of the housing stock 80% requires an average repair and 20% requires an overhaul.…

      Communist Belov, taking from Filimonikhin village in such a state understood how difficult it is for him to work. After all, there is not a penny in the budget of the village. What could have helped the management of the trawling fleet. But it was just beginning to get back on its feet and strengthen its economic position. It will then become a city-forming enterprise and will provide significant economic assistance not to the village, but to the city of Pioneersk. And despite all the difficulties, pioneersk fishermen continued to go out to sea. And even for a long time at that time (15 days) worked in the Baltic. Soon they were went on a herring expedition to Iceland together with the swimming base Tungus.

      And the wives of fishermen gave birth to beautiful children in the maternity hospital in the city Cranz (German). There was no such opportunity in Pioneersk then. My mother-in-law lived in Georgienswald and gave birth in Cranz (German). And to see the light for my wife helped a midwife – a German. For that I am very grateful to her. It was at the end of June 1947.

      On one of the hottest days of June 1947, the village of Neukuhren hosted another large family of migrants from the city of Krasnodar, Khoroshavina Nikolai Andreevich. As all this happened, I kindly reminded his daughter – Tamara Nikolaevna. This is a photo, that my camera left behind on March 12, 2019.

      Tamara Nikolaevna.

      Tamara has a good memory in her years. At home, she unmistakably calls for me the many names of captains and senior mechanics of the Pioneer Base of the Ocean Fishing Fleet. And this is not surprising. After all, she is the daughter of a famous captain. And this obliges to a lot. On four sheets of clean handwriting, she prepared for me the story of a beautiful family of a migrant – Khoroshavin Nikolai Andreevich. And I, without correcting almost anything, pass this story on to you, dear reader.

      Nikolai Khoroshavin was born on November 29, 1913, in the village of Tara in the Omsk region. In 1939, Yakutia was called immediately to the front, when there was a war with the Finns. He was awarded the Order of the Red Star for his courage and bravery. In 1941 he left Krasnodar for the front of the Great Patriotic War. Defended the North Caucasus. He was also awarded medals. After the war, he returned to Krasnodar.

      Soon Khoroshavin decided to enlist in the post-war Koenigsberg – the city of Kaliningrad. In the summer of 1947, he, his mother – Anna Vasilyevna, his wife – Evdokiy Pavlovna, and their three children arrived in the former Neukuhren – the village of Pioneers. Anna Vasilyevna began to work as a watchman of the smoking shop of the UTF fish factory. Evdokiy Pavlovna with her three children was a housewife. Their eldest daughter Tamara was born on May 11, 1936, the older brother Boris was born on September 18, 1938, the younger brother Nicholas was born on June 11, 1940.

      On arrival in Kaliningrad, we were placed in the basement of a large red house on the square. There were a lot of migrants. The next day, Dad brought the whole family to Pioneers, to the UTF office. Captain Medvedev took us to his home in Lapineno, where we spent the night. The other night we spent on Komsomolskaya Street, where the house of the mode of life is now located. The next night we spent the night on the Railroad street 22, where Dad was given two rooms. There was no floor in one room and the window was not glazed. Dad laid this window with bricks. Grandmother Anna Vasilyevna began to work as a watchman of the smoke shop, which was located at the railway station of the village of Pioneers. She worked until 1949. Dad went to work at the port.

      He began to walk in the sea on KFC – 16 sailors. Then they went to the sea for three days. I used to meet my dad from the sea. In winter, the ship was often covered with ice. There was an open-air fish factory in the port. I remember, as my dad brought me on a boat, gave me paper and a pencil to draw. He put me in a navigator’s cabin so I wouldn’t go anywhere. And he went downstairs to unload the fish from the hold. Then I heard his voice. He was shouting at someone.

      Khoroshavin Nikolai Andreevich and his wife.

      I’ve always heard, “Faith, faith.” When I got home, I told my mother how my father shouted, “Faith, faith.” My mother asked my dad what Faith he was calling all the time. Dad laughed and said that “faith” is not a girl Vera, but a “vira” that means up. This word is used by all sailors.

      Soon my father was sent to study at Mamonov “academy” as it was called at that time. In 1949, navigators for the fishing fleet were produced.
