Nuikina intelligence biography

Speech into which English and French words are interspersed. In his 80 retired colonel, the scout-weeled Lyudmila Ivanovna Nuikina forces her to turn after her ... She was declassified only three years ago. Behind a couple of decades of fruitful work in almost two dozen countries of the world, dangerous operations, life under other people's names, separation from children.

Lyudmila Ivanovna recalls some events with tears in her eyes, laughing-laughing ... Talking with Lyudmila Ivanovna, I admire her aristocratic manners, European charm and I can’t believe that she was from the Siberian hinterland-she sat down by the Upper Uba of the Shemonihinsky district, which is accustomed to the coarse work. He hardly remembers his father - in the year he was taken to the front, and in M ​​the news came that he was missing.

On the eve of a terrible battle, he wrote: "We go to the battle, or the chest in the crosses, or the head in the bushes." It turned out the second. The mother had three children, Luda, five -year -old - the eldest. All three fell ill with pneumonia. Luda and brother got out, and the younger sister died. Grandma saved from hunger - she took it to the village. And there is a farm - potatoes, carrots, a cow, calves, piglets ...

There were no men in a family, a woman is all at work. As a result, I learned everything to do it myself - to milk, harvest a dangling, plant vegetables, drown a stove ... The dramatic page of the biography of our heroine is associated with the stove. In the year, the summer mother and brother of Lyudmila Ivanovna burned from her malfunction. With me they put a new one, and I immediately told the master that he was building incorrectly.

But he replied that I was engaged in women's affairs ... I think my relatives first suffocated from carbon monoxide. Then, apparently, the fire took up. In the kitchen there was a gas cylinder, in the hallway - the second. With explosions, everything smashed. There is nothing left of my loved ones. The cousin found only a fragment of a skull with sleeping hair, which she recognized her mother - the day before was combed her.

It was necessary to live up to 96 years to accept such a terrible death ... After all, I persuaded my mother to move to my Moscow for a long time, I prepared the room - I did not agree, I didn’t want to leave my son. Now they are forever together ... My relatives are now cousins ​​and their children, one lives in Moscow, worked as a operating sister for 22 years, the other remained in Kazakhstan.

Details have never been discussed. But after showing on television, the film “Seventeen Moments of Spring”, the brother began to guess about something, but was silent, did not ask questions. They learned the truth only in metro. I came from a long business trip to my mother, to arrange my son to school, then I had to return to my husband. I remember I am taking a wash, a woman comes running and says: “Tell me, who is Nuikina here?

The KGB is looking for you. " My heart broke off - I thought my husband was arrested abroad. And this was the news that our business trip was over, that our people successfully took Vitaly and that we all return to Moscow. Horses, childbirth, prisoners if you think that Lyudmila from her youth dreamed of being a scout, you are mistaken. She graduated from a medical school with a degree in obstetrician-gynecologist and managed to accept dozens of births.

For birth they called in 12, 20 km. I went there riding a horse. It fell from her, it happened, and from the "bears" she shied away, taking sprawling trees for them. Although not a coward, she was afraid. After all, prisoners worked in this forest in logging. They even came to me to the medical unit with axes - they demanded either a linden certificate or alcohol.

The orderly always kept the back door of an unlocked, if anything - to run ... What should they attack me in the forest? And once I was almost freezing to death. In winter, it gets dark early, it was necessary to stay overnight with people who went on call, but they did not offer, and I moved back. A young girl, desperate. I was quietly going in a hidden stroller, the snow went, it began to freeze ...

In general, I, either falling asleep, or lost consciousness from the cold, zealous in snow, found a watchman in this stroller - the horse herself knew to our medical unit. Disrupted, confused with alcohol, poured it inside ... After that, the chairman of the village council said: "You will not go alone anymore - only with the accompanying person." Lyudmila Ivanovna calls her husband in a conversation calls the English word “phaser” Father - father.

Responds exclusively with Pete: “I am Old Believers, for us a man is God. But Vitaly really deserved love and respect, was very erudite, interested in everyone - from technology to politics with religion. ” And Lyudmila met him at the age of 16. So in my homeland we met, were friends for five years, met with Vitaly. Then he went to study at MGIMO, and in December, having passed the exams with exterior, he came for me, from that moment I began to live with their family.

After some time, he will return to classes in Moscow, his father asks: “Guys, are you going to sign? We went to the registry office, there, for our happiness, a woman who met my uncle worked - they quickly registered. There was no wedding, they noted the event modestly.Our heroine will marry in a foreign country, under a stranger, as a foreigner German, brought up in a French family for a foreigner.

In the country where the Nuikins worked, it was necessary to wait for the marriage for three months. The center was in a hurry, drove. And then they will go to another state, three times give an announcement in the newspaper according to the local rules: Mr. Such and such marries Mademoiselle, such and such a thing was done in case the entertainers hid their previous wives of music, wait for two weeks-and voila: a new cell of society.

Vitaliy came home for a funeral, and then he told me: “Red, do you want to work under an alien passport? The husband, of course, was sure that I was following him everywhere, but it was necessary that the service also chose me. It did - I was approved. They began to study together, although our languages ​​were different. For example, I flatly refused to teach German, she said that I would not speak the language of people who killed my father ...

They studied the radio department, subversive ... Although we are not military scouts, they prepared us according to the laws of wartime - today the world, tomorrow war. Later, my husband and I still received an education in Europe. Vitaly was well versed in technology. I remember that in his youth, as if preparing in advance for the upcoming work, he disassembled and collected the first TVs in the USSR ...

I was in the ninth month of pregnancy, when he was sent on a business trip - to get an internship at the company that just made TVs. They didn’t ask him there a diploma, they simply left for an hour in a room with faulty equipment and tools and said: fix it. And he fixed. Subsequently, their “roof” abroad will become exactly firms engaged in the production and development of equipment.

Vitaly Alekseevich was considered a valuable specialist, he was often sent on business trips, which was also useful for intelligence. By the way, some of these firms successfully work on this time. Lyudmila Ivanovna does not specify exactly what secrets he and her husband mined to the motherland, but notes that the contribution was serious. This is today the title of Hero of Russia awards many illegal immigrants.

And then even orders were rarely awarded. The third order is the October Revolution. This is to the question of the effectiveness of the work. Are you proud of awards? Everything that they earned in firms abroad was sent to the state and remained with the salary issued by the center. It was difficult for us to correspond to the level of rich friends, my husband’s colleagues, some probably considered us scruff.

Once the husband of her husband sent him on a business trip, and by Soviet habit, he decided to take tickets in the economy class. He was called by the bosses of digging and said: “You never do it again, otherwise our company will go a rumor that we are saving because we will go bankrupt.” Another time, he went with the top of the company on a business trip abroad.

Everyone purchases gifts home, but Father - no, cannot afford. They say to him: why don't you buy anything, do not love your wife? I had to fork out for some souvenir. My husband and I were not mercantiles, young people were accustomed to a modest life. I remember when we just moved to Moscow, Vitaly was sent to study at the School of Foreign Intelligence today.

Money - in a cut. We rented an apartment in Balashikha, paid expensive - 35 rubles, although the conditions were more than modest: two people would enter the room - the third can no longer. For the kindergarten, the son of Yura was paid 12, I sat at a reception in a clinic and received 45 rubles. We have already passed different tests in the KGB with Vitaly. I successfully surrendered the next, sitting at the Bolshoi Theater, waiting for my husband.

On one edge of a long bench is a woman with a child, on the other I. Suddenly a man sits down, I am from him, he is to me. He calls to go somewhere, offers 40 rubles. I get up, start to wave a bag ... The man shouts to me: “Fool, fool” - and runs away. I came home, tell the apartment owner, and he says to me: “Well, the truth is a fool. You pay 35 rubles per month for an apartment, but here they give you as much as 40, there would be 5 rubles still.
