In his article, V. Akunov discusses the problem of heroism.

The author proudly narrates about the exploits of Soviet soldiers during the Great Patriotic War. V. Akunov overwhelms the feeling of admiration for our heroes, because they gave us victory at the cost of their own lives. Only Soviet soldiers, the author believes, is inherent in "true heroism", which can not be compared with the "imaginary heroism" of the Japanese and the "true heroism" of the Germans.

Determine the position of the author is quite easy: "The Russian soldier for all time glorified his heroic spirit, throwing him at the enemy bastions and machine gun embrasure."

It is difficult not to agree with the opinion of the author.

There is heroism of a special kind - it is to never, under any circumstances, change the rules of honor, decency, friendship, humanity. This is the heroism of the spirit. A vivid example of such heroism is in the destinies of people who, in the inhuman conditions of the Leningrad blockade, the Hitlerite and Stalin camps, retained dignity, courage, benevolence - in short, all truly human qualities. Many literary figures reflected in their works on this issue.

Thus, in the story of V. Nekrasov "In the trenches of Stalingrad, " heroism and the moral strength of a simple soldier are shown on the example of Valega, orderly lieutenant Kerzhentsev. He hardly knows the letter, confuses the table of multiplication, does not really explain what socialism is, but for the Motherland, for his comrades, for the lopsided hut in the Altai, for Stalin, whom he has never seen, will fight to the last patron. And the ammunition will end - with fists and teeth. Sitting in the trench, he would scold the sergeant more than the Germans. And come to the point - will rebuff the enemy. Kerzhentsev is sure that such a soldier as Valega will never betray, he will not leave a wounded man on the battlefield and the enemy will be beaten mercilessly.

Or let us recall the immortal work of Boris Polevoy "A Tale of a Real Man." At the heart of the dramatic history are the real facts of the biography of the fighter pilot Alexei Meresyev. Shot in battle over the occupied territory, he for three weeks made his way through the snow-covered forests until he got to his own. Having lost both legs, the hero warrior subsequently displays an amazing strength of character and replenishes the account of victories over the enemy, gained in air battles. Is not this true heroism ?!

Thus, I can conclude that heroism is an inalienable feature of a Russian soldier. The deeds and exploits of the heroes are remembered and highly honored, by their example they learn to live, fight and win.Thus, in the story of V. Nekrasov "In the trenches of Stalingrad, " heroism and the moral strength of a simple soldier are shown on the example of Valega, orderly lieutenant Kerzhentsev.
