What kid doesn't dream of being on the battlefield? Especially if the real war started yesterday! So Vovka and Zhenya quite seriously decided to go to the army.
Who would have thought that they still have to grow and grow to real fighters! And, of course, friends could not even imagine that in Leningrad, surrounded by a blockade ring, it would be no easier than on the front line. Now every gram of bread counts, and very close, beyond the lake, where the guys used to go swimming and sunbathing on weekends, is the front line. So for the boys it is time to say goodbye to a carefree childhood, to go through completely unchildish difficulties and to grow up.
