Hero of Nation Azamat Dzhumadilov going to study in Moscow
Senior Lieutenant of the Kazakh Air Forces Azamat Dzhumadilov was awarded the title of the Hero of Nation for bravery and dedication that he demonstrated in an extreme situation.
"That night my parents arrived home very late, and my mother asked to take her to her sister. When we were passing by an old building I saw clouds of black smoke. I stopped and remembered that children were playing in the house in the afternoon. Getting out of the car I heard someone calling for help. I ran to help, broke the door. First I saw a child crying on the floor and his mother. I took the child in one hand and gas-bag that could explode any minute in the other and ran out of the house. After that I started to rescue others - fourteen years old boy and first grade student-girl stifled by smoke. Their mother was in panic trying to gather children's things; I had to take her out by force", A.Dzhumadilov told.
Having rescued the woman and children the Lieutenant called the fire-department and ambulance. Commander of the military unit Serik Yeskaliyev decided to remark the actions of his subordinate and on behalf of the unit made request to the command of the Air Forces of the Kazakh Armed Forces on award Azamat Dzhumadilov.
