The document contains information about the heroism of the young partisan, who served as a signalman and scout in the Stalin Partisan Brigade in the Dobrush District of the Byelorussian SSR in 1943. Eva was only 12 years old at the time of the hostilities.

For her courage and bravery, Eva Moskalenko was awarded the \u00abPartisan of the Great Patriotic War, 2nd Class\u00bb medal.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00abThousands of young people, our peers and wearing Pioneer ties, stood up to defend their homeland alongside adults. And they were boys and girls with their bright dreams and cheerful, mischievous ideas. Today is the day of remembrance for the boys and girls who died for their homeland, freedom, and independence. The lives of these young heroes are short, but their example is powerful. We know the names of these heroes. And how many more were there\u2014boys and girls who performed their own small acts of heroism, whose names remain unknown? All people share a love for their native land, where they were born and raised, for their beautiful Motherland\u00bb.
