The essay "Wandering Souls" tells the story of a little-known episode of the war years - the elimination of two groups of enemy saboteurs, scouts, thrown from aircraft into Konoshsky area in the autumn of 1942. The author presents very interesting documentary evidence of the actions in the first war days of the former commander of Arkhangelsk Military District V. Kachalov, who headed a group of troops on the Western Front. The author provides previously unknown information about the fearless pilot Georgii Kostylev, sniper Roza Shanina, military schools, deployed in the war years in the Arkhangelsk region, and many others interesting facts.
