This young boy's unwavering determination shines through his eyes as he looks up at these brave sailors with admiration and respect. Despite his tender age, he understands the gravity of their mission and recognizes their sacrifice for the Soviet Union. His small hand waves goodbye while clutching onto hope for their safe return.
