That evening, the Kiwis played a European Cup match against the Portuguese “Maritim” and advanced to the next round. In the future, he tried to attend matches whenever possible and always followed the game of his native club.

With the onset of a full-scale war, Yegor took up arms, taking the nickname “Kobzar”. Since I read a lot - I went to fight with the collection “Kobzar”, from there and the call sign. He first joined the local 103rd Troop Battalion, and about a year later joined the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade. He took part in the battles for Bakhmut and at the Avdeyev Coking Chemical Plant.

During his military service, Egor met volunteers from Estonia, the United States, who thanks to him brought and continue to bring help to the unit. The unit was quite media, shooting battles with cameras on helmets. We collaborated with the team of director Mstislav Chernov, so the film “2000 meters to Andreevka” was shot. During the service, Yegor found his love, a girl with whom he wanted to marry. I learned to drive a car. He was responsible, humble, kind and always smiling. He always told family and friends, “Yes, let's not talk about the bad, everything will be fine.”
