QUOTE
La cei 97 de ani ai sai, un fost pilot de aviatie din judetul Vaslui, care a facut parte si din echipajul avionului maresalului Antonescu, are constiinta incarcata ca a omorat mii de oameni nevinovati. S-a intamplat in urma cu peste 65 de ani, atunci cand a luptat pe frontul de est, alaturi de nemti.
Iacob Ivanov a bombardat mai multe orase rusesti si, paradoxal, spre sfarsitul celui de-al Doilea Razboi Mondial, atunci cand au intors armele impotriva Germaniei, a fost victima fostilor sai aliati.
A fost ranit de trei ori si, cu toate acestea, traieste si astazi intr-o casa darapanata din apropierea centrului Vasluiului.
Povesteste infocat ceea ce a trait in cei cinci ani de razboi, dar si cosmarul din ziua de astazi, cand a fost uitat de toata lumea. "Pana la judecata cea dreapta, am pe constiinta mii de oameni pe care i-am omorat. Am spus asta la trei preoti, care mi-au spus sa stau linistit pentru ca nu sunt eu vinovat. Am avut un ordin, doar nu m-am dus sa omor de placere", este convins Iacob Ivanov.
Cum a fost toata viata un luptator, fostul pilot vasluian este hotarat sa continue asa pana la capat. Se gospodareste, isi face piata singur si, pentru a se mai imbarbata, bea cate o cinzeaca de tarie in fiecare dimineata la crasma din rondul pietei.

He said he was part of Antonescu's crew, I wonder what happened so he got to a fighting unit. He says he feels bad about the thousand lives he took smile.gif I think it would have been difficult to do so even with a Ju88, ehh..

Iacob Ivanov was a board gunner in Gr. 6 bomb., flying Ju 88As. He certainly was not responsible for any human casualities the bombs dropped by the aircraft he was aboard may have caused.
The only victim he may have had was the pilot of a Soviet fighter, claimed as shot down on 27 July 1943.
